Actuarial estimates and log-rank test P values for difference between both treatment groups within subgroups are given. ELN risk 2010 according to Döhner et al12  was slightly modified for bi-allelic CEBPA gene mutations, as detailed in the supplemental Appendix. NPM1 wild-type refers to nonmutated nuclephosmin-1 gene; FLT3-ITD negative refers to fms-like tyrosine kinase-3 with no internal tandem duplications. The composite NPM1wt/FLT3-ITD neg is of intermediate prognostic risk. ELN 2010 prognostic risk categories are described by Döhner et al.12  Bold values indicate significant statistical differences.

N, number of patients.
