  2. aDouble hit: displaying del(17p) and an additional TP53 mutation.
  3. bHalploinsufficiency: either del17p alone or TP53 mutation alone.
  4. cHaploinsufficiency still leads to poor outcomes.
  5. dTP53 mutation based on whole-exome/genome sequencing as opposed to iFISH.
  6. eIn the full dataset, TP53 deletion was seen in 9.0% (97/1074) and mutations in 5.5% (70/1273) of patients. Any event at TP53 was found in 11.3% and biallelic events in 3.7% of patients. Importantly, when mutations of TP53 are taken into account, del(17p) was not prognostically important.
  7. fEarly progressive disease was defined as time to progression of less than 18 months.
  8. gMV analyses: del17p always entered the final model whether the cut-point used was 20%, 40%, 60%, or 80%, suggesting that del17p is indeed an independent prognostic factor.
  9. hHomozygous TP53 deletion was associated with a very short median OS of 22.4 months and an HR for OS of 3.7 (95% CI, 1.5–8.9; P = 0.004).
  10. iTP53-deleted tumors were divided into three equal-sized subgroups based on MLPA (multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification) values: deleted tumors (n = 67; MLPA 0.7–0.8—corresponding to a CCF of 10–20%); intermediate clonal tumors (n = 64; MLPA 0.55–0.7—corresponding to a CCF of greater than 50%); clonally TP53-deleted tumors (n = 61; MLPA <0.55—corresponding to a CCF of ~95–100%).
