Hypermethylation status and clinical outcome in patients with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML).

Abstract

<p>(A) Kaplan–Meier curves represent the probability of transplantation-free survival (TFS) in the 92 patients with JMML. TFS was defined as the probability of being alive and transplantation free. Both death and transplantation were considered events. The probability of 5-year TFS in the aberrant methylation score (AMS) 0 cohort (solid line) was significantly higher than that in the AMS 1–2 (long dashed line) and AMS 3–4 cohorts (dashed line), p < 0.001. (B) Kaplan–Meier curves represent the probability of overall survival (OS) in the 92 patients with JMML. Death was considered an event. The probability of OS in both the AMS 0 (solid line) and 1–2 cohorts (long dashed line) was significantly higher than that in the AMS 3–4 cohort (dashed line), p < 0.001.</p
