ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AIMS:
The internal tandem duplication of FLT3 (FLT3ITD) and NPM1 mutations (NPM1mut) are well-established prognostic factors in cytogenetically intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) when treated with chemotherapy alone. However, their prognostic value in the setting of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is controversial.METHODS:
FLT3 and NPM1 mutational status was determined at diagnosis using single-gene polymerase chain reaction or next-generation sequencing in 247 adult patients with cytogenetically intermediate-risk AML who underwent myeloablative HCT. Multivariate Fine-Gray and Cox regression was used to analyze the cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS).RESULTS:
FLT3ITD and NPM1mut were present in 74 of 247 (30%) and 79 of 247 (32%) patients, respectively. There was no significant difference between patients without a FLT3ITD or NPM1mut (FLT3NONITD/NPM1WT) and patients with a FLT3ITD mutation alone (FLT3ITD/NPM1WT) with regard to CIR (P = 0.60), RFS (P = 0.91) or OS (P = 0.66). Similarly, there was no significant difference between FLT3NONITD/NPM1WT and FLT3NONITD/NPM1mut patients with regard to CIR (P = 0.70), RFS (P = 0.75) or OS (P = 0.95). The presence of a concurrent mutation in NPM1 did not appear to modify the impact of having a FLT3ITD mutation.CONCLUSIONS:
In contrast to chemotherapy-only treatment, FLT3 and NPM1 mutational status does not appear to predict outcomes in patients with cytogenetically intermediate-risk AML following HCT. These results suggest that HCT may ameliorate the poor prognostic effect of FLT3ITD mutation and that HCT should be considered over chemotherapy-only treatment in FLT3ITD-mutated AML.Palavras-chave
