Validation and interpretation of the Triple A model in Turkish myeloproliferative neoplasm patients with a focus on overall and thrombosis free survival
摘要
The Triple A model has recently been developed and validated in essential thrombocythemia (ET) and polycythemia vera (PV). However, external validation in diverse populations remains unclear.
PurposeThe purpose of this study was to externally validate the Triple A prognostic model in a Turkish cohort of patients with ET and PV.
MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted at two centers in Bursa, Türkiye, involving patients diagnosed with ET or PV under the World Health Organization (WHO) 2016/2022 criteria between 2014 and 2024.
ResultsWhile the Triple A model has significantly separated the ET patients with a median follow-up of 47 months (p = 0.015), no significant difference was observed in PV patients in terms of survival (p = 0.87). For thrombosis-free survival (TFS), Fine and Gray’s competing risk analysis showed a significant separation with the Triple A model in ET (p = 0.017).
ConclusionWhile the Triple A model was validated as a practical prognostic tool in ET, it demonstrated limited utility in PV. Further multicenter studies are needed to refine risk stratification in PV.
