A new approach in acute myeloid leukemia (AML): Samatya-predicting score

Abstract

We aimed to examine the efficiency for prediction of prognosis and response in non-APL AML cases of the “Samatya-predicting score”. A total of 213 patients diagnosed between January 2010-December 2020 were examined. Of the 158 patients included in the study, the median value of risk score was determined as 2,5. The sensitivity for mortality was 88% and the specificity was 42%. In terms of being non-responder to induction therapy, the sensitivity was 90,1%, the specificity was 25,3%. OS was shorter in those with high risk scores. This study makes an important contribution to the literature in terms of creating a different perspective to predict prognosis in AML.
