Values of P < .05 are depicted in bold.

BM, bone marrow; CR2, second complete remission; MRD, minimal residual disease; mut, mutation.

*

P value calculated among all 3 groups.

P value calculated between clonal and subclonal NT5C2 mutations.

P value calculated between clonal NT5C2 mutations and wild-type.

§

P value calculated between subclonal NT5C2 mutations and wild-type.

||

Corresponds to the end of intensive treatment phase.

Time of relapse: very early, <18 mo after initial diagnosis of ALL; early, ≥18 mo after initial diagnosis of ALL; late, ≥6 mo after completion of primary treatment.

#

Site of relapse: isolated bone marrow, no evidence of extramedullary disease; combined bone marrow, >5% leukemic cells in the bone marrow combined with central nervous system, testis, or other extramedullary disease.

**

Relapse risk group: high risk, early isolated or very early isolated or combined bone marrow relapse of BCP-ALL; intermediate risk, late isolated or combined bone marrow relapse or early combined bone marrow relapse of BCP-ALL.
