Multivariate model uses stepwise selection with entry level 0.1 and variable remains if meets the 0.05 level. A multivariate P value greater than .05 indicates variable forced into model with significant variables chosen using stepwise selection. P value for HR from the Wald χ2 test in Cox regression. Variables considered for the models included: age > 65 years, female, albumin < 3.5 g/dL, B2M > 3.5 mg/L, B2M > 5.5 mg/L, ISS stage 1, ISS stage 3, creatinine > 2 mg/dL, CRP > 8 mg/L, Hb < 10 g/dL, LDH > 190 U/L, cytogenetic abnormalities (any time before enrollment), GEP high-risk, GEP CD-1 subgroup, GEP CD-2 subgroup, GEP hyperdiploidy subgroup, GEP low bone disease subgroup, GEP MAF/MAFB subgroup, GEP MMSET/FGFR3 subgroup, GEP myeloid subgroup, GEP proliferation subgroup, and GEP TP53 deletion.

HR indicates hazard ratio; OS, overall survival; EFS, event-free survival; CI, confidence interval; LDH, lactate dehydrogenase; B2M, β-2-microglobulin; ISS, International Staging System; CR, complete response; CRD, complete response duration; and GEP, gene expression profiling.
