ABSTRACT: Although intensive induction chemotherapy (IC) remains the standard of care for younger patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), hypomethylating agents + venetoclax (HMA/VEN) can lead to durable remission among older patients with nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutations. Whether IC or HMA/VEN is superior in patients aged ≥60 years with NPM1-mutant AML is unknown. We performed an international, multicenter retrospective cohort study of 221 patients (147 IC and 74 HMA/VEN) with previously untreated NPM1-mutant AML. Composite complete remission (cCR) (defined as CR + CR with incomplete count recovery) rate was similar for IC and HMA/VEN (cCR, 85% vs 74%; P = .067). Although overall survival (OS) was favorable with IC in unselected patients compared with HMA/VEN (24-month OS, 59% [95% confidence interval (CI), 52-69%] vs 38% [95% CI, 27-55%]; P = .013), it was not statistically different among patients aged 60-75 years (60% [95% CI, 52-70%] vs 44% [95% CI, 29-66%]; P = .069) and patients who received an allogeneic stem cell transplant (70% [95% CI, 58-85%] vs 66% [95% CI, 44-100%]; P = .56). Subgroup analyses suggested that patients with normal cytogenetics (24-month OS, 65% [95% CI, 56-74%] with IC vs 40% [95% CI, 26-60%] with HMA/VEN; P = .009) and without FLT3 internal tandem duplication mutations might benefit from IC compared with HMA/VEN (24-month OS, 68% [95% CI, 59-79%] vs 43% [95% CI, 29-63%]; P = .008). In multivariable analysis, OS was not statistically different between patients treated with IC and HMA/VEN (hazard ratio for death with HMA/VEN vs IC, 0.71; 95% CI, 0.40-1.27; P = .25).

Mutations in spliceosome genes (SRSF2, SF3B1, U2AF1, ZRSR2) correlate with inferior outcomes in patients treated with intensive chemotherapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia. However, their prognostic impact in patients treated with less intensive protocols is not well known. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of Spliceosome mutations in patients treated with Venetoclax and Azacitidine for newly diagnosed AML. 117 patients treated in 3 different hospitals were included in the analysis. 34 harbored a mutation in at least one of the spliceosome genes (splice-mut cohort). K/NRAS mutations were more frequent in the splice-mut cohort (47% vs 19%, p=0.0022). Response rates did not differ between splice-mut and splice-wt cohorts. With a median follow-up of 15 months, splice mutations were associated with a lower 18-month LFS (p=0.0045). When analyzing splice mutations separately, we found SRSF2 mutations to be associated with poorer outcomes (p=0.034 and p=0.037 for OS and LFS respectively). This negative prognostic impact remained true in our multivariate analysis. We believe this finding should warrant further studies aimed at overcoming this negative impact.
