Objective:

To compare the prognostic predictive performance of the BLAST, BLAST-mol, CPSS, and CPSS-mol in Chinese patients with Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML).

Approach:
    Key Findings:
    • Severe anemia and TP53 mutation were identified as independent poor prognostic factors for overall survival (OS).
    • The BLAST scoring system demonstrated superior risk stratification compared to CPSS, with significant differences in median OS across risk groups.
    • The BLAST-mol model also showed significant differences in median OS across risk categories, outperforming CPSS-mol.
    Interpretation:

    Limitations:
    • The study was conducted in a single ethnic group, which may limit generalizability.
    • The sample size may not be sufficient to fully validate the prognostic models.
    Conclusion:
