The numbers in the data for which the EMC92-ISS risk classification could be determined. For the classifications based on del13q, 1q gain, and HR.FISH.A, a clear correlation was found to the EMC92-ISS classifications. For instance, 93% of EMC92-ISS high-risk patients are positive for HR.FISH.A compared with 44 to 55% of the intermediate group and 75% of the low group.

HR, the percentage of patients indicated as high-risk according to the specified marker; n, number of patients in the EMC92-ISS–based risk group for which the specified marker was available; positive, the percentage of patients positive for the specified marker.
