Data are presented as n (%) or median (interquartile range), unless otherwise stated.

BMI, body mass index; ECOG, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group; NK, natural killer; WBC, white blood cell.

Only evaluated in 68 patients.

Cytogenetic risk stratification is based on the National Comprehensive Cancer Network Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (version 4.2023).
