Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; n, number.

a

Patients who received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation while in first CR (n=3) or did not receive post-remission chemotherapy according to protocol (n=1) were excluded from the outcome analyses.

b

P-values for categorical variables are from Fisher’s exact test, P-values for time to event variables are from the log-rank test.

c

One patient who achieved a CR was lost to follow-up.

d

An event for DFS is relapse or death, patients alive and relapse-free at last follow-up are censored.

e

An event for OS is death and patients alive at last follow-up are censored.
