RESUMEN
PURPOSE: AML presenting with hyperleukocytosis is associated with poor outcomes. We aim to understand the factors associated with early mortality and overall survival (OS) to help guide management and improve early mortality. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed data from 129 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed AML and a WBC count ≥100 × 109/L between January 2010 and April 2020. Logistic regression models estimated odds ratios for 4-week mortality. Cox proportional hazard models estimated hazard ratios for OS. RESULTS: The median age was 65 years (range, 23-86); the median WBC was 146 × 109/L (range, 100-687). Seventy-five (58%) patients had clinical leukostasis (CL). FLT3, NPM1, and RAS pathway mutations were detected in 63%, 45%, and 27% of patients, respectively. Cytoreduction consisted of hydroxyurea in 124 (96%) patients, cytarabine in 69 (54%), and leukapheresis in 31 (24%). The cumulative 4-week and 8-week mortality rates were 9% and 13%, respectively, all in patients age 65 years and older. By multivariate analysis, older age, CL, and thrombocytopenia <40 × 109/L were independently associated with a higher 4-week mortality rate. After a median follow-up of 49.4 months, the median OS was 14.3 months (95% CI, 7 to 21.6), with 4-year OS of 29%. Age 65 years and older, CL, tumor lysis syndrome, elevated LDH ≥2,000 U/L, elevated lactate ≥2.2 mmol/L, and poor-risk cytogenetics were independent factors associated with worse OS. CONCLUSION: Hyperleukocytosis is a life-threatening hematologic emergency. Early recognition and intervention including cytoreduction, blood product support, antibiotics, and renal replacement therapy may help mitigate the risk of morbidity and early mortality.
RESUMEN
Cytogenomic characterization is crucial for the classification and risk stratification of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), thereby facilitating therapeutic decision-making. We examined the clinical utility of optical genome mapping (OGM) in 159 AML patients (103 newly diagnosed and 56 refractory/relapsed), all of whom also underwent chromosomal banding analysis (CBA), fluorescence in situ hybridization, and targeted next-generation sequencing. OGM detected nearly all clinically relevant cytogenetic abnormalities that SCG identified with >99% sensitivity, provided the clonal burden was above 20%. OGM identified additional cytogenomic aberrations and/or provided information on fusion genes in 77 (48%) patients, including eight patients with normal karyotypes and four with failed karyotyping. The most common additional alterations identified by OGM included chromoanagenesis (n = 23), KMT2A partial tandem duplication (n = 11), rearrangements involving MECOM (n = 7), NUP98 (n = 2), KMT2A (n = 2), JAK2 (n = 2), and other gene fusions in 17 patients, with 10 showing novel fusion gene partners. OGM also pinpointed fusion genes in 17 (11%) patients where chromosomal rearrangements were concurrently detected by OGM and CBA. Overall, 24 (15%) aberrations were identified exclusively by OGM and had the potential to alter AML classification, risk stratification, and/or clinical trial eligibility. OGM emerges as a powerful tool for identifying fusion genes and detecting subtle or cryptic cytogenomic aberrations that may otherwise remain undetectable by CBA.
RESUMEN
The 5th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO) classification of Hematolymphoid tumors provides a hierarchically-driven catalog of hematologic neoplasms and introduces a series of changes to the classification of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Emphasizing molecular genetic findings, it expands the category of "acute myeloid leukemias with defining genetic abnormalities" while retaining the morphologically defined category of AML for cases that do not harbor disease-defining genetic drivers. The updates to the classification of AML provide refined definitions and diagnostic criteria based on clinicopathologic parameters and molecular genetic findings, emphasizing therapeutically and/or prognostically actionable biomarkers. This review provides an overview of the WHO 5th classification for AML with practical considerations for applying this classification system.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) remains the best consolidative modality in most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Along with factors directly pertaining to SCT, pretransplantation disease control, performance status, and prior treatment-related complications are important factors that affect posttransplantation survival outcomes. METHODS: The authors compared the survival outcomes of patients ≥60 years of age treated on the phase 2 clinical trial of venetoclax (Ven) added to cladribine (CLAD) and low dose cytarabine (LDAC) alternating with azacitidine (CLAD/LDAC/Ven arm) (NCT03586609) who underwent allogeneic SCT in first remission to a retrospective cohort of patients ≥60 years of age who underwent SCT after intensive chemotherapy. Intensive chemotherapy was defined as the use of cytarabine >1 g/m2 and anthracyclines during induction/consolidation. RESULTS: Thirty-five patients at median age of 68 years in the CLAD/LDAC/Ven arm were compared to 42 patients at a median age of 62 years in the intensive therapy arm. The 2-year relapse-free survival was superior with CLAD/LDAC/Ven versus intensive chemotherapy (88% vs. 65%; p = .03) whereas the 2-year overall survival (OS) was comparable (84% vs. 70%; p = .14). On a competing event analysis, the 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) was significantly lower with CLAD/LDAC/Ven versus intensive chemotherapy (2.9% vs. 17.2%, Gray's p = .049) whereas nonrelapse mortality was comparable (16.2% vs. 17.1%; p = .486). CONCLUSION: In conclusion, treatment with CLAD/LDAC/Ven was associated with favorable outcomes in older patients who underwent subsequent allogeneic SCT. The OS was comparable to that with intensive chemotherapy followed by allogeneic SCT, but the CIR rate was significantly lower.
RESUMEN
Advancements in comprehending myelodysplastic neoplasms (MDS) have unfolded significantly in recent years, elucidating a myriad of cellular and molecular underpinnings integral to disease progression. While molecular inclusions into prognostic models have substantively advanced risk stratification, recent revelations have emphasized the pivotal role of immune dysregulation within the bone marrow milieu during MDS evolution. Nonetheless, immunotherapy for MDS has not experienced breakthroughs seen in other malignancies, partly attributable to the absence of an immune classification that could stratify patients toward optimally targeted immunotherapeutic approaches. A pivotal obstacle to establishing "immune classes" among MDS patients is the absence of validated accepted immune panels suitable for routine application in clinical laboratories. In response, we formed International Integrative Innovative Immunology for MDS (i4MDS), a consortium of multidisciplinary experts, and created the following recommendations for standardized methodologies to monitor immune responses in MDS. A central goal of i4MDS is the development of an immune score that could be incorporated into current clinical risk stratification models. This position paper first consolidates current knowledge on MDS immunology. Subsequently, in collaboration with clinical and laboratory specialists, we introduce flow cytometry panels and cytokine assays, meticulously devised for clinical laboratories, aiming to monitor the immune status of MDS patients, evaluating both immune fitness and identifying potential immune "risk factors." By amalgamating this immunological characterization data and molecular data, we aim to enhance patient stratification, identify predictive markers for treatment responsiveness, and accelerate the development of systems immunology tools and innovative immunotherapies.
RESUMEN
Patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (rAML) experience dismal outcomes. We performed a comprehensive analysis of patients with rAML to determine the genetic dynamics and survival predictive factors. We analyzed 875 patients with newly diagnosed AML who received intensive treatment (IT) or low-intensity treatment (LIT). Of these patients, 197 experienced subsequent rAML. Data was available for 164 patients, with a median time from CR/CRi to relapse of 6.5 months. Thirty-five of the 164 patients (21%) experienced relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). At relapse mutations in genes involved in pathway signaling tended to disappear, whereas clonal hematopoiesis-related mutations or TP53 tended to persist. Patients with normal karyotypes tended to acquire cytogenetic abnormalities at relapse. Patients treated with IT had a higher emergence rate of TP53 mutations (16%), compared to patients treated with LIT (1%, P = 0.009). The overall response rates were 38% and 35% for patients treated with salvage IT or LIT, respectively. Seventeen patients (10%) underwent alloSCT after salvage therapy. The median overall survival (OS) duration after relapse was 5.3 months, with a 1-year OS rate of 17.6%. Complex karyotype (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.14, P < 0.001), a KMT2A rearrangement (HR = 3.52, P = 0.011), time in remission < 12 months (HR = 1.71, P = 0.011), and an elevated white blood cell count at relapse (HR = 2.38, P = 0.005) were independent risk factors for OS duration. More effective frontline and maintenance therapies are warranted to prevent rAML.
RESUMEN
Ponatinib is a third-generation BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) with high potency against Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-positive leukemias, including T315I-mutated disease, which is resistant to first- and second-generation TKIs. Ponatinib was approved for T315I-mutated chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), CML resistant/intolerant to ≥2 prior TKIs, advanced phase CML and Ph-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) where no other TKIs are indicated, and T315I-mutated CML and Ph-positive ALL. The response-based dosing of ponatinib in chronic phase CML (CP-CML) improved treatment tolerance and reduced the risk of toxicities, including cardiovascular risks. Ponatinib-based therapy also resulted in significantly better outcomes in frontline Ph-positive ALL compared with prior TKIs and is becoming a new standard of care in this setting. As the clinical development of third-generation TKIs and their rational combinations progresses, we envision further transformative changes in the treatment of CML and Ph-positive ALL.

We report on the long-term efficacy and safety of a phase 2 trial of sequential cladribine and rituximab in hairy cell leukemia (HCL). One-hundred and thirty-nine patients were enrolled: 111 in the frontline setting, 18 in first relapse, and 10 with variant HCL (HCLv). A complete response (CR) was achieved in 133 of 137 evaluable participants (97%) with measurable residual disease (MRD) negativity in 102 (77%). MRD status was not associated with significant differences in event-free survival (EFS) or overall survival (OS). With a median follow-up of 7.8 years (range: 0.40-18.8), eight patients have experienced disease relapse (5.8%), 4/111 with newly diagnosed HCL (3·6%) and 4/10 with HCLv (40%) (p = 0.002). The 10-year EFS and OS rates were 86.7% and 91.1%, respectively. Grade 3 adverse events were observed in 28 participants (20·1%), mostly due to infections. Treatment of HCL with sequential cladribine followed by rituximab is associated with excellent efficacy and safety results both in the frontline and relapsed settings.
RESUMEN
RAS pathway mutations, which are present in 30% of patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) at diagnosis, confer a high risk of resistance to and progression after hypomethylating agent (HMA) therapy, the current standard of care for the disease. Here, using single-cell, multi-omics technologies, we seek to dissect the biological mechanisms underlying the initiation and progression of RAS pathway-mutated CMML. We identify that RAS pathway mutations induce transcriptional reprogramming of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) and downstream monocytic populations in response to cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic inflammatory signaling that also impair the functions of immune cells. HSPCs expand at disease progression after therapy with HMA or the BCL2 inhibitor venetoclax and rely on the NF-κB pathway effector MCL1 to maintain survival. Our study has implications for the development of therapies to improve the survival of patients with RAS pathway-mutated CMML.

We conducted a phase 1 study evaluating 3 dose levels of quizartinib (30â¯mg, 40â¯mg or 60â¯mg) in combination with azacitidine for HMA-naïve or relapsed/refractory MDS or MDS/MPN with FLT3 or CBL mutations. Overall, 12 patients (HMA naïve: n=9, HMA failure: n=3) were enrolled; 7 (58â¯%) patients had FLT3 mutations and 5 (42â¯%) had CBL mutations. The maximum tolerated dose was not reached. Most common grade 3-4 treatment-emergent adverse events were thrombocytopenia (n=5, 42â¯%), anemia (n=4, 33â¯%), lung infection (n=2, 17â¯%), skin infection (n=2, 17â¯%), hyponatremia (n=2, 17â¯%) and sepsis (n=2, 17â¯%). The overall response rate was 83â¯% with median relapse-free and overall survivals of 15.1 months (95â¯% CI 0.0-38.4 months) and 17.5 months (95â¯% CI NC-NC), respectively. FLT3 mutation clearance was observed in 57â¯% (n=4) patients. These data suggest quizartinib is safe and shows encouraging activity in FLT3-mutated MDS and MDS/MPN. This study is registered at Clinicaltrials.gov as NCT04493138.

Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutations occur in approximately one-third cases of adult de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Identification of NPM1 mutations is important for classification, risk stratification, tailored therapy, and monitoring minimal residual disease. Mutational analysis is widely used for detecting NPM1 mutations. Immunochemistry assessing abnormal cytoplasmic localization of NPM1 protein has been used as a surrogate marker for NPM1 mutations. We present a case of AML with mutated NPM1 that was missed by sequencing analysis but detected by immunohistochemistry. This case highlights the value of immunohistochemistry in identifying NPM1 mutations in a subset of AML cases.
RESUMEN
Targeted therapy development for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) requires an understanding of specific expression profiles. We collected flow cytometry data on 901 AML patients and recorded aberrant CD7 expression on leukaemic blasts. 263 (29.2%) had blasts positive for CD7. CD7+ AML was more likely to be adverse risk (64.6% vs. 55.6%, p = 0.0074) and less likely to be favourable risk (15.2% vs. 24.1%, p = 0.0074) by European LeukemiaNet 2022 criteria. Overall survival was inferior (11.9 [95% CI, 9.7-15.9] vs. 19.0 months [95% CI, 16.1-23.0], p = 0.0174). At relapse, 30.4% lost and 19.0% gained CD7, suggesting moderate instability over time.

The molecular mechanisms of venetoclax-based therapy failure in patients with acute myeloid leukemia were recently clarified, but the mechanisms by which patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) acquire secondary resistance to venetoclax after an initial response remain to be elucidated. Here, we show an expansion of MDS hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with a granulo-monocytic-biased transcriptional differentiation state in MDS patients who initially responded to venetoclax but eventually relapsed. While MDS HSCs in an undifferentiated cellular state are sensitive to venetoclax treatment, differentiation towards a granulo-monocytic-biased transcriptional state, through the acquisition or expansion of clones with STAG2 or RUNX1 mutations, affects HSCs' survival dependence from BCL2-mediated anti-apoptotic pathways to TNFα-induced pro-survival NF-κB signaling and drives resistance to venetoclax-mediated cytotoxicity. Our findings reveal how hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC) can eventually overcome therapy-induced depletion and underscore the importance of using close molecular monitoring to prevent HSPC hierarchical change in MDS patients enrolled in clinical trials of venetoclax.

BACKGROUND: The outcome of patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) has improved significantly since the introduction of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide (ATO) as APL therapies. The optimal therapy for APL relapse is believed to require autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) based on historical experience. STUDY AIMS: To evaluate the outcome of patients with relapsed APL before and after the era of ATRA-ATO. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We reviewed 61 patients with relapsed APL treated from November 1991 to June 2023; 31 patients (51%) received modern therapy with the combination of ATRA and ATO with and without idarubicin and gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO). RESULTS: Overall, 56 patients (92%) achieved CR after the first salvage therapy; 20 patients received SCT (10 autologous SCT;10 allogeneic SCT). With a median follow-up time of 138 months, the median survival durations were 32 months and 164 months with historical therapy vs. modern (ATRA-ATO) therapy (P = .035); the 5-year survival rates were 44% vs. 71%. With a 10-month landmark analysis, the median survival durations were 102 months vs. not reached, and the 5-year survival rates were 57% and 70% without SCT vs. with SCT (P = .193). The survival benefit with SCT was more prominent in the historical therapy era. However, patients who received the modern combination therapy of ATRA-ATO with and without idarubicin and GO had similar outcomes without vs. with SCT (P = .848). CONCLUSION: The combination of ATRA-ATO (+/- GO and idarubicin) is a highly effective salvage therapy in relapsed APL. The use of SCT may not be needed after first relapse-second remission but may be considered in subsequent relapses.

ABSTRACT: BRG1 (SMARCA4) and BRM (SMARCA2) are the mutually exclusive core ATPases of the chromatin remodeling BAF (BRG1/BRM-associated factor) complexes. They enable transcription factors/cofactors to access enhancers/promoter and modulate gene expressions responsible for cell growth and differentiation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) stem/progenitor cells. In AML with MLL1 rearrangement (MLL1r) or mutant NPM1 (mtNPM1), although menin inhibitor (MI) treatment induces clinical remissions, most patients either fail to respond or relapse, some harboring menin mutations. FHD-286 is an orally bioavailable, selective inhibitor of BRG1/BRM under clinical development in AML. Present studies show that FHD-286 induces differentiation and lethality in AML cells with MLL1r or mtNPM1, concomitantly causing perturbed chromatin accessibility and repression of c-Myc, PU.1, and CDK4/6. Cotreatment with FHD-286 and decitabine, BET inhibitor (BETi) or MI, or venetoclax synergistically induced in vitro lethality in AML cells with MLL1r or mtNPM1. In models of xenografts derived from patients with AML with MLL1r or mtNPM1, FHD-286 treatment reduced AML burden, improved survival, and attenuated AML-initiating potential of stem-progenitor cells. Compared with each drug, cotreatment with FHD-286 and BETi, MI, decitabine, or venetoclax significantly reduced AML burden and improved survival, without inducing significant toxicity. These findings highlight the FHD-286-based combinations as a promising therapy for AML with MLL1r or mtNPM1.

Optical genome mapping (OGM) is a new DNA-based technology which provides comprehensive examination of the entire genome. We report two patients who presented with splenomegaly and leukocytosis with lymphocytosis including villous lymphocytes. Neither patient had lymphadenopathy. Bone marrow evaluation showed involvement by small B-cell lymphoma in a sinusoidal and interstitial distribution, and immunophenotypic analysis showed that the neoplastic cells were positive for B-cell markers and cyclin D1 but were negative for SOX11 and CD5. Initially, the clinicopathologic features in both patients were thought to be suspicious for hairy cell leukemia variant or splenic marginal zone lymphoma. However, OGM detected CCND1 rearrangement: t(2;11)/IGK::CCND1 in one case and t(11;14)/IGH::CCND1 in the other case. These cases illustrate the valuable role OGM can play in establishing the diagnosis of MCL. Case 1 also contributes to the paucity of literature on the rare occurrence of IGK::CCND1 in MCL.
