unfavorable) showed a trend toward the independent association of MALAT1 expression with TTFT in U-CLL (hazard ratio (HR) = 0.581, 95% CI = 0.337−1.002, p = 0.051).

When we grouped patients with low and intermediate and high and very high risk together, we observed a trend towards a higher frequency of high and very high CLL-IPI risk in the MALAT1 high group in comparison to the MALAT1 low group when the whole cohort was analyzed, but this difference did not reach statistical significance ( p = 0.08, Fisher exact test).
