Adjusted discrete time survival analysis, modeling hazard of relapse with death due to non-relapse causes and date of last contact as censoring events. Bolded values represent statistically significant findings. On-therapy model adjusted for AYA*time interaction.

2

These variables were modeled as time-varying covariates. Time at risk represents: (a) months from CR1 in the model calculating hazard of relapse on therapy; (b) months from completion of therapy in the model calculating hazard of relapse after completing therapy. HRs represent each additional month of time from remission/ completion of therapy, or each additional month of therapy.

3

Patients with M2-M3 marrows at the end of induction were compared to patients who either (a) had M1 marrows at the end of induction or (b) did not have a documented end of induction marrow, but the first marrow documented after initiation of treatment (>36 days) was M1.
