Prognostic discrimination in "good-risk" chronic granulocytic leukemia

TL;DR: The prognostic significance of disease features recorded at the time of diagnosis was examined among 813 patients with Philadelphia chromosome- positive, nonblastic chronic granulocytic leukemia (CGL) collected from six European and American series, and it should be possible to identify a lower risk group of patients with a 2-yr survival of 90%, subsequent risk averaging somewhat less than 20%/yr and median survival of 5 yr.
