For definition of risk groups, see also supplemental Table 2.

*

NPM1mut/FLT3-ITDlow AML cases, irrespective of additional high-risk gene mutation or additional chromosomal abnormalities.

NPM1mut/FLT3-ITDhigh AML (n = 93) and NPM1wt/FLT3-ITDlow AML (n = 18), both subgroups without the concurrent presence of the high-risk molecular markers RUNX1, ASXL1, and TP53. Also, NPM1wt/FLT3-ITDlow AML without adverse-risk cytogenetics.

NPM1wt/FLT3-ITDhigh AML (n = 92), NPM1mut/FLT3-ITDhigh AML exhibiting high-risk molecular markers (n = 8), and NPM1wt/FLT3-ITDlow AML with high-risk molecular markers and/or adverse-risk cytogenetics (n = 22).
