Abstract
The hematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index (HCT-CI) is predictive of early death and survival in elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The aim of this study was to determine the prognostic role of the HCT-CI for early death and survival in adult AML patients. In the single-center retrospective study, we analyzed the outcome of 233 adult AML patients. The results indicated that the HCT-CI score is an independent predictor of early death in entire cohort of adult patients with AML. In subgroup analysis, HCT-CI is an independent predictor for early death in elderly patients but not in patients younger than 60 years. A high HCT-CI score predicts shorter survival in adult patients with AML.Entities:
