Luceno-Araujo et al use assays of mutations associated with myeloid malignancy to propose an integrative prognostic score for acute promyelocytic leukemia (ISAPL) in patients treated with all-trans retinoic acid and anthracycline-based therapy. They demonstrate that the ISAPL is superior for predicting outcomes and identifying patients who may benefit from alternative therapies to maximize their chance of a cure.
