Patients may be counted more than once due to the coexistence of more than 1 cytogenetic abnormality in the leukemic clone.

NA indicates not applicable; —, not determined; NR, not reached.

*

Determined for abnormalities present in 5 or more patients.

For comparison of a given abnormality with normal karyotype.

In the absence of t(8;21), t(11q23), t(15;17), or inv(16).

§

Irrespective of karyotype complexity.

Including cases with unbalanced or balanced abnormalities.
