Abstract
BACKGROUND: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem transplantation (allo-HSCT) constitutes a curative treatment for various hematological malignancies. However, various complications limit the therapeutic efficacy of this approach, increasing the morbidity and decreasing the overall survival of allo-HSCT recipients. In everyday clinical practice, various laboratory and clinical biomarkers and scorning systems have been developed and implemented focusing on the recognition of high-risk patients for organ dysfunction-related complications and those who might experience low overall survival. However, the predictive accuracy of developed scores has been reported deficient in some studies. The aim of the current retrospective study is to develop a machine learning (ML) model to predict the long-term survivorship of patients who receive allo-HSCT based on clinical pre- and post-allo-HSCT variables, and on transplantation-related characteristics.
