Utility of the Treatment-Related Mortality (TRM) score to predict outcomes of adults with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation.

ABSTRACT: There is long-standing interest in estimating non-relapse mortality (NRM) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for AML, but existing tools have limited discriminative capacity. Using single-institution data from 861 adults with AML, we retrospectively examined the Treatment-Related Mortality (TRM) score, originally developed to predict early mortality following induction chemotherapy, as a predictor of post-HCT outcome. NRM risks increased stepwise across the four TRM score quartiles (at 3 years: 9% [95% confidence interval: 5-13%] in Q1 vs. 28% [22-34%] in Q4). The 3-year risk of relapse was lower in patients with lower TRM score (26% [20-32%] in Q1 vs. 37% [30-43%] in Q4). Consequently, relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) estimates progressively dec
