Most chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients are in the chronic phase, but some have transformed to accelerated phase or blast phase (blast crisis). However, the clinical significance of RDW in CML remains limited.Patients and Methods: In the present study, detailed clinical information and the RDW of 168 healthy people and 153 CML patients (106 patients for the training cohort and 47 patients for the validation cohort) were retrospectively assessed.Results: Multivariate analysis demonstrated that patient age (OR, 1.081; 95CI% 1.039∼ 1.125; p < 0.001), platelet counts (OR, 0.997; 95CI% 0.994∼ 0.999; p = 0.001) and RDW at admission (OR,1.469; 95CI% 1.121∼ 1.925; p = 0.005) were significantly associated with the patients with advanced phase. Among CML patients in the chronic phase, higher RDW was significantly associated with overall survival (OS; p = 0.0008) and the event-free survival (EFS; p = 0.0221) among CML patients with chronic phase, but not with Transformation-free survival (TFS; p = 0.0821). Furthermore, higher RDW was associated with higher mortality compared to patients with low RDW (CML-associated deaths; p < 0.0001). In addition, a decline in RDW is associated with the treatment of CML patients with tyrosine kinase inhibitors, especially at 6 and 12 months after the start of treatment.Conclusion: Higher RDW is a potential prognostic biomarker for chronic CML patients.Keywords: red blood cell distribution width, chronic myeloid leukemia, chronic phase, adverse prognosis |
