Risk Stratification of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia According to Different Prognostic Scores.

Introduction Several prognostic indices are in use to stratify chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients: Sokal, Hasford, and the European Treatment and Outcome Study (EUTOS) being the most commonly reported ones. The application of different scores may cause variability in the determination of disease prognosis. This study was conducted to stratify patients of CML in accordance with Sokal, Hasford, and EUTOS scoring systems and to determine the concordance rate of risk categories, calculated by using all three scoring systems.
