Summary of Complete Remission.*
Variable | Midostaurin Group (N = 360) | Placebo Group (N = 357) | P Value† |
---|---|---|---|
Protocol-specified complete remission — no. (%) | 212 (59) | 191 (54) | 0.15 |

Complete remission was defined as the presence of less than 5% blasts in the marrow or extramedullary leukemia, an absolute neutrophil count of more than 1000 per microliter, a platelet count of more than 100,000 per microliter, and the absence of blasts in the peripheral blood; in addition, per protocol, complete remission had to occur by day 60.
P value is two-sided and was calculated with the use of Fisher's exact test.
