DFS calculated for those who achieved CR and had evaluable MRD for outcome assessment by end-induction MRD or who achieved CR and had evaluable NGS for outcome assessment by genetic alterations

15 subjects did not achieve a CR and were not randomized; one participant withdrew from study therapy after achievement of CR, but before randomization

N=115 participants for whom diagnostic samples was available for NGS

§

Includes NOTCH1 and FBXW7 mutations

Includes PTEN, AKT, PIK3R1

Includes KRAS, NRAS, NF1, and PTPN11
