RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: In patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), higher revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) scores at transplant are associated with worse transplant outcome and, thus, lowering IPSS-R scores by therapeutic intervention before transplantation may seem beneficial. However, there is no evidence, to date, to support this approach. In a retrospective analysis, a total of 1482 patients with MDS with sufficient data to calculate IPSS-R score at diagnosis and at time of transplantation were selected from the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation transplant registry and analyzed for transplant outcome in a multivariable Cox model including IPSS-R score at diagnosis, treatment intervention, change in IPSS-R score before transplant, and several patient and transplant variables. Transplant outcome was unaffected by IPSS-R score change in untreated patients and moderately superior in patients treated with chemotherapy with improved IPSS-R score at transplant. Improved IPSS-R score after hypomethylating agents (HMAs) or other therapies showed no beneficial effect. However, when IPSS-R score progressed after chemotherapy, HMAs, or other therapies, transplant outcome was worse than without any prior treatment. Similar results were found when reduction or increase in bone marrow (BM) blasts between diagnosis and transplantation was considered. The results show a limited benefit of IPSS-R score downstaging or reduction of BM blasts after chemotherapy and no benefit for HMAs or other treatments and thus question the role of prior therapy in patients with MDS scheduled for transplantation. The model-based survival estimates should help inform decision-making for both doctors and patients.

RESUMEN

The criteria of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with mutated SFB31 (MDS-SFB31) proposed by the 5th edition of the WHO classification (WHO 2022) and the International Consensus Classification (ICC) need validation. We analysed 125 consecutive MDS cases with SFB31 mutation or ring sideroblasts (RS) ≥15% without excess blasts. We found that SFB31-negative MDS with RS had significantly different clinical features and worse prognosis. According to WHO 2022, the detection of ≥15% RS may substitute for SF3B1 mutation and our analyses support this proposal for similar prognosis of two groups after excluding high-risk genetic features referred by WHO 2022. Patients with variant allele frequency (VAF) <10% SFB31 tend to have briefer survival, supporting the VAF 10% threshold of ICC. Patients with multilineage dysplasia (MLD) had significantly shorter OS than those with single lineage dysplasia. MLD is still a powerful morphological marker of worse outcome in WHO 2022 and ICC-defined MDS-SF3B1.

RESUMEN

This prospective clinical study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the pre-emptive treatment modality of azacitidine in combination with interferon-α (IFN-α) in AML/MDS patients post-transplantation. Forty-seven patients aged 17-62 were enrolled with 14 patients having completed the planned 12 cycles. Following initiation, 72.3% responded positively after the first cycle, peaking at 77.2% by the fifth cycle. Notably, 24 patients maintained sustained responses throughout a median follow-up of 1050 days (range, 866-1234). Overall survival, leukaemia-free survival and event-free survival probabilities at 3 years were 69.5%, 60.4% and 35.7% respectively. Cumulative incidences of relapse and non-relapse mortality were 36.5% and 4.3% respectively. Multivariate analysis identified that receiving pre-emptive treatment for fewer than six cycles and the absence of chronic graft-versus-host disease after intervention was significantly associated with poorer clinical outcomes. The combination of azacitidine with IFN-α was well-tolerated with no observed severe myelotoxicity, and the majority of adverse events were reversible and manageable. In conclusion, the use of azacitidine in conjunction with IFN-α as pre-emptive therapy is a safe and effective treatment to prevent disease progression in AML/MDS patients with MRD positivity post-allo-HSCT.

RESUMEN

Favourable outcomes with CPX-351 versus conventional 7 + 3 were demonstrated in the pivotal phase III trial in adults aged 60-75 years with newly diagnosed, highrisk/secondary acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). As a complement to the clinical trial and to address important data gaps, the CPX-351 Real-World Effectiveness and SafeTy (CREST-UK; NCT05169307) study evaluated the use of CPX-351 in routine clinical practice in the UK, in 147 patients with newly diagnosed therapy-related AML or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes. Best response of complete remission or complete remission with incomplete platelet or neutrophil recovery was achieved by 53% of evaluable patients. Kaplan-Meier median overall survival (OS) was 12.8 months (95% confidence interval 9.2-15.3). Fifty (34%) patients proceeded to haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT); median OS landmarked from the HCT date was not reached. There were no new safety concerns with CPX-351 identified in CREST-UK. Patients treated with CPX-351 in the outpatient setting spent an average of 24.4, 16.7, 28.2, and 27.7 fewer days on the ward compared with inpatients during first induction, second induction, first consolidation, and second consolidation, respectively. The results from CREST-UK provide valuable insights into the effectiveness, safety, and outpatient delivery of CPX-351 in routine clinical practice in the UK.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The Molecular International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-M) is the new gold standard for diagnostic outcome prediction in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). This study was designed to assess the additive prognostic impact of dynamic transfusion parameters during early follow-up. METHODS: We retrieved complete transfusion data from 677 adult Swedish MDS patients included in the IPSS-M cohort. Time-dependent erythrocyte transfusion dependency (E-TD) was added to IPSS-M features and analyzed regarding overall survival and leukemic transformation (acute myeloid leukemia). A multistate Markov model was applied to assess the prognostic value of early changes in transfusion patterns. RESULTS: Specific clinical and genetic features were predicted for diagnostic and time-dependent transfusion patterns. Importantly, transfusion state both at diagnosis and within the first year strongly predicts outcomes in both lower (LR) and higher-risk (HR) MDSs. In multivariable analysis, 8-month landmark E-TD predicted shorter survival independently of IPSS-M (p < 0.001). A predictive model based on IPSS-M and 8-month landmark E-TD performed significantly better than a model including only IPSS-M. Similar trends were observed in an independent validation cohort (n = 218). Early transfusion patterns impacted both future transfusion requirements and outcomes in a multistate Markov model. CONCLUSION: The transfusion requirement is a robust and available clinical parameter incorporating the effects of first-line management. In MDS, it provides dynamic risk information independently of diagnostic IPSS-M and, in particular, clinical guidance to LR MDS patients eligible for potentially curative therapeutic intervention.

RESUMEN

The revised 4th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO4R) classification lists myelodysplastic syndromes with ring sideroblasts (MDS-RS) as a separate entity with single lineage (MDS-RS-SLD) or multilineage (MDS-RS-MLD) dysplasia. The more recent International Consensus Classification (ICC) distinguishes between MDS with SF3B1 mutation (MDS-SF3B1) and MDS-RS without SF3B1 mutation; the latter is instead included under the category of MDS not otherwise specified. The current study includes 170 Mayo Clinic patients with WHO4R-defined MDS-RS, including MDS-RS-SLD (N=83) and MDS-RSMLD (N=87); a subset of 145 patients were also evaluable for the presence of SF3B1 and other mutations, including 126 with (87%) and 19 (13%) without SF3B1 mutation. Median overall survival for all 170 patients was 6.6 years with 5- and 10-year survival rates of 59% and 25%, respectively. A significant difference in overall survival was apparent between MDS-RS-MLD and MDS-RS-SLD (P<0.01) but not between MDS-RS with and without SF3B1 mutation (P=0.36). Multivariable analysis confirmed the independent prognostic contribution of MLD (hazard ratio=1.8, 95% confidence interval: 1.1-2.8; P=0.01) and also identified age (P<0.01), transfusion need at diagnosis (P<0.01), and abnormal karyotype (P<0.01), as additional risk factors; the impact from SF3B1 or other mutations was not significant. Leukemia-free survival was independently affected by abnormal karyotype (P<0.01), RUNX1 (P=0.02) and IDH1 (P=0.01) mutations, but not by MLD or SF3B1 mutation. Exclusion of patients not meeting ICC-criteria for MDS-SF3B1 did not change the observations on overall survival. MLD-based, as opposed to SF3B1 mutation-based, disease classification for MDS-RS might be prognostically more relevant.

RESUMEN

The BCL6-corepressor (BCOR) is a tumor-suppressor gene located on the short arm of chromosome X. Data are limited regarding factors predicting survival in BCOR-mutated (mBCOR) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We evaluated 138 patients with mBCOR myeloid disorders, of which 36 (26.1%) had AML and 63 (45.6%) had MDS. Sixty-six (47.8%) patients had a normal karyotype while 18 (13%) patients had complex karyotype. BCOR-mutated MDS/AML were highly associated with RUNX1 and U2AF1 co-mutations. In contrast, TP53 mutation was infrequently seen with mBCOR MDS. Patients with an isolated BCOR mutation had similar survival compared to those with high-risk co-mutations by European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2022 criteria (median OS 1.16 vs. 1.27 years, P=0.46). Complex karyotype adversely impacted survival among mBCOR AML/MDS (HR 4.12, P<0.001), while allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT) improved survival (HR 0.38, P=0.04). However, RUNX1 co-mutation was associated with an increased risk of post-alloSCT relapse (HR 88.0, P=0.02), whereas melphalan-based conditioning was associated with a decreased relapse risk (HR 0.02, P=0.01). We conclude that mBCOR is a high-risk feature across MDS/AML, and that alloSCT improves survival in this population.

RESUMEN

The patterns of low-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) progression and the clinical and molecular features of those patterns have not been well described. We divided our low-risk (LR) MDS patients (N=1,914) into 4 cohorts: 1) patients who remained LR-MDS (LR-LR; N=1,300; 68%), 2) patients who progressed from LR to high-risk (HR) MDS (LR-HR) without transformation into acute myeloid leukemia (AML) (N=317; 16.5%), 3) patients who progressed from LR to HR MDS and then AML (LR-HR-AML; N=124; 6.5%), and 4) patients who progressed from LR MDS directly to AML (LR-AML; N=173; 9%). Risk factors for progression included: male gender, low absolute neutrophil count (ANC), low platelet count, high bone marrow (BM) blasts, ferritin >1000 mcg/L, albumin <3.5 g/dL, multi-lineage dysplasia (MLD), and lack of ring sideroblasts. Among patients with marked BM fibrosis (N=49), 18% progressed directly to AML. Somatic mutations (SM) associated with an increased risk of direct or indirect AML progression included SRSF2 and NRAS. SM in IDH1, IDH2 and NPM1 were more common in patients with direct AML transformation. SM associated with progression to higher risk disease only, without AML transformation, were ASXL1, TP53, RUNX1, and CBL. SF3B1 mutation was associated with less progression. About 171 patients (13.1% of all LR-LR patients) died within two years of diagnosis of LR-MDS without disease progression. Among the 61 cases with documented cause of death, 18 patients (29.5%) died from cytopenia and MDS-related complications. Identifying patterns of disease progression of LR MDS patients and their predictive factors will be crucial to be able to tailor therapy accordingly.

RESUMEN

INTRODUCTION: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a heterogeneous disease characterized by cytopenia, marrow dysplasia and has a propensity to develop into acute myeloid leukemia. The disease progression is majorly affected by genetic defects. However, about 40-50% of patients with MDS present with a normal karyotype and develop different courses of disease. Hence, there remains a room to advance the biological understanding and find molecular prognostic markers for cytogenetically normal MDS. METHODS: We performed a high-resolution CGH + SNP array along with next-generation sequencing (NGS) of 77 primary diagnosed MDS patients, and also they were clinically followed up. RESULTS: Our study revealed 82 clinically significant genomic lesions (losses/gains) in 49% of MDS patients. CGH + SNP array reduced the proportion of normal karyotype by 30%. SNP array in combination with NGS confirmed the biallelic loss of function of the TP53 gene (2/6), which is a clinically relevant biomarker and new genetic-based MDS entity, i.e., MDS-biTP53, as per the new WHO classification 2022. Genomic region 2p22.3 presented with frequent lesions and also with a more hazard ratio (2.7, 95% CI: 0.37-21) when analyzed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. CONCLUSION: CGH + SNP array changed the cytogenetic and IPSS-R risk group in 18% and 13% of patients, respectively, with an improved prediction of prognosis. This study emphasizes the cytogenetic heterogeneity of MDS and highlights that abnormality with chromosome 2 may have a diagnostic and prognostic impact.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: For myeloid neoplasms with t(7;11)(p15;p15) translocation, the prognosis is quite dismal. Because these tumors are rare, most occurrences are reported as single cases. Clinical results and optimal treatment approaches remain elusive. This study endeavors to elucidate the clinical implications and prognosis of this cytogenetic aberration. METHODS: This study retrospectively analyzed 23 cases of myeloid neoplasm with t(7;11)(p15;p15). Clinicopathological characteristics, genetic alterations, and outcomes were evaluated, and the Kaplan-Meier method was employed to construct survival curves. RESULTS: Of these, nine cases were newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (ND AML), seven presented with relapsed refractory AML (R/R AML), four had myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), two had secondary AML, and one exhibited a mixed germinoma associated with MDS. Patients with t(7;11)(p15;p15) in AML were primarily younger females who preferred subtype M2. Interestingly, these patients had decreased hemoglobin and red blood cell counts, along with markedly elevated levels of lactic dehydrogenase and interleukin-6, and exhibited the expression of CD117. R/R AML patients exhibited a higher likelihood of additional chromosome abnormalities (ACAs) besides t(7;11). WT1 and FLT3-ITD were the most commonly found mutated genes, and 10 of those instances showed evidence of the NUP98::HOXA9 fusion gene. The composite complete remission rate was 66.7% (12/18), while the cumulative graft survival rate was 100% (4/4). However, the survival outcomes were dismal. Interestingly, the median overall survival for R/R AML patients was 4.0 months (95% CI: 1.7-6.4). Additionally, the type of AML diagnosis or the presence of ACAs or molecular prognostic stratification did not significantly influence clinical outcomes (p = 0.066, p = 0.585, p = 0.570, respectively). CONCLUSION: Myeloid leukemia with t(7;11) exhibits unique clinical features, cytogenetic properties, and molecular genetic characteristics. These survival outcomes were dismal. R/R AML patients have a limited lifespan. For myeloid patients with t(7;11), targeted therapy or transplantation may be an effective course of treatment.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Transfusion of red blood cells (RBC) is an important component of treatment for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Patients receiving frequent transfusions are more likely to develop alloimmunization, an immune reaction to minor RBC antigens that increases the risk of complications including delayed hemolysis. Phenotypic matching is believed to reduce alloimmunization although rigorous evidence is lacking. This study examines the association of alloimmunization with clinical and economic outcomes and may give insight into the potential benefit of phenotypic matching in MDS. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This study used data from 1054 hospitals included in the Premier hospital chargemaster dataset. Alloimmunized MDS patients (January 2015 to June 2019) were indirectly identified by ICD-10 codes (antiglobulin crossmatch and RBC antibody identification). The primary objective was assessment of the association between incremental cost per patient encounter and alloimmunization in MDS patients. Secondary objectives were assessment of the association of length of stay, intensive care unit (ICU) admission, and inpatient mortality for alloimmunized versus non-alloimmunized MDS patients. RESULTS: Worse clinical and economic outcomes were observed for the alloimmunized group. Higher costs (14%), more ICU admissions (38%), longer hospital (21%) and ICU stays (55%), and greater mortality (30%) were observed among alloimmunized MDS patients compared to non-alloimmunized (p < .0001 for all comparisons). DISCUSSION: Alloimmunization may be associated with higher costs and greater risk of ICU admission and death in patients with MDS. While further mechanistic research is needed, it seems that MDS patients may benefit substantially from practices that limit risk of alloimmunization, including providing prophylactic antigen matching.

RESUMEN

Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is well known to be complicated by systemic inflammatory autoimmune disease (SIADs). However, it remains unclear how the prognosis after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with MDS is impacted by SIADs that occur before allo-HSCT. Therefore, we hypothesized that SIADs before allo-HSCT may be a risk factor for negative outcomes after allo-HSCT in patients with MDS. We conducted a single-center, retrospective, observational study of sixty-nine patients with MDS or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia who underwent their first allo-HCT. Fourteen of the patients had SIADs before allo-HSCT. In multivariate analysis, the presence of SIADs before allo-HSCT was an independent risk factor for overall survival (HR, 3.36, 95% confidence interval: 1.34-8.42, p = 0.009). Endothelial dysfunction syndrome was identified in five of 14 patients with SIADs who required immunosuppressive therapy or intensive chemotherapy, and notably, all patients with uncontrollable SIADs at allo-HSCT developed serious endothelial dysfunction syndrome and died in the early phase after allo-HSCT. The development of SIADs in the context of MDS is thought to reflect the degree of dysfunction of hematopoietic cells in MDS and suggests a higher risk of disease progression. In addition, MDS patients with SIADs before allo-HSCT are considered to be at higher risk of endothelial dysfunction syndrome because of preexisting vascular endothelial dysfunction due to SIADs. In conclusion, SIADs before allo-HSCT constitute an independent risk factor for death in MDS patients undergoing allo-HSCT.

RESUMEN

A remarkably high rate of post-transplant relapse in patients with TP53-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML) calls to question the utility of allogeneic stem cell transplant (HSCT). We, therefore, performed a retrospective analysis to compare the outcomes between HSCT (N = 38) versus non-HSCT (N = 45) approaches. Patients in the HSCT cohort were younger (median age 63 vs. 72) while patients in the non-HSCT cohort more commonly had complex karyotype with chromosome 17 aberrancy and 5q deletion (p < .01). A total of 69 TP53 variants including 64 pathogenic variants, and 5 variants of undetermined significance were detected. Nine patients (4 in HSCT and 5 in non-HSCT) had multi-hit TP53 variants. After induction: 57.9% versus 56.6% in the HSCT versus non-HSCT cohort achieved morphologic complete remission. Median time to HSCT was 6 months and median follow-up was 15.1 months for HSCT and 5.7 months for non-HSCT. Median disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were 11.7 and 15.9 months for HSCT, and 4.1 and 5.7 months for non-HSCT cohorts, respectively. Non-relapse mortality at 12 months was 22% versus 44% for HSCT versus non-HSCT. In the HSCT cohort, the rate of grade II-IV acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was 55% and 18%, respectively. None of the patients from the non-HSCT cohort were alive while four patients from the HSCT cohort were alive, in remission, and without GVHD (GRFS) at the time of abstraction. Better treatment strategies for patients with TP53-mutated MDS/AML remain an area of unmet clinical need.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the frequency and prognostic significance of DTA (DNMT3A、TET2、ASXL1) gene mutation and co-occurring mutations in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). METHODS: The clinical data of 102 newly diagnosed MDS patients who accepted Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) was retrospectively analyzed. According to whether the patients had DTA gene mutation, the patients were divided into DTA mutated (DTA-mut) group and wild type (DTA-wt) group, and the relationship between gene mutation and clinical characteristics and prognosis was analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 102 MDS patients, 96% (98/102) presented with mutation, while the mean number of mutations was 3.04 mutations/patient. DTA-mut was detected in 56.9% (58/102) patients. The most frequent co-mutated genes in DTA-mut group were SF3B1 (25.8%), RUNX1 (24.1%), U2AF1 (18.9%), SRSF2, EZH2, SETBP1 (17.2%), STAG2 (15.5%), IDH2 (12.1%) and BCOR, CBL (10.3%). The two groups showed no significant differences in ages, blood parameters, bone marrow blasts, WHO 2022 classification, IPSS-R risk category and rate of conversion to leukemia. Compared with the DTA-wt group, the mutation frequency of RUNX1 was higher (P = 0.02), while mutation frequency of TP53 was lower (P = 0.001) and the mutation frequency of ≥ 3 co-mutated genes was higher in DTA-mut group (P = 0.00). Survival analysis showed that the overall survivals (OS) of DTA-mut patients was significantly inferior to that of DTA-wt patients (P = 0.0332). According to IPSS-R classification, a statistically significant difference in OS was only observed in higher risk (IPSS-R > 3.5) group (P = 0.0058). In the context of DTA mutation, the OS of patients with RUNX1 mutation was shorter than that of patients without RUNX1 mutation significantly (P = 0.0074). The OS of patients with SF3B1 mutation was longer than that of patients without SF3B1 mutation, but there was no statistical difference (P = 0.0827). DTA mutations were not independent prognostic factors when DTA and co-mutated genes with frequency > 10% were considered in Cox regression model (P = 0.329). However, multivariate analysis confirmed an independently adverse prognosis of RUNX1 co-mutation (P = 0.042, HR = 2.426, 95% CI:1.031-5.711) in DTA-mut cohort. Moreover, our multivariable analysis suggests that SRSF2-mut was an independent poor prognostic factor for all MDS patients (P = 0.047), but lost significance (P = 0.103) for DTA-mut patients. CONCLUSIONS: DTA mutations are frequently observed in patients with MDS, often accompanied by genes involved in RNA splicing and transcription factors like SF3B1 and RUNX1. DTA and concomitant mutations affect prognosis in MDS patients and RUNX1 was identified as an independent poor prognostic factor in patients with DTA mutations.

RESUMEN

DNA-methyltransferase inhibitors (DNMTis), such as azacitidine and decitabine, are used clinically to treat myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Decitabine activates the transcription of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs), which can induce immune response by acting as cellular double-stranded RNAs (dsRNAs). Yet, the posttranscriptional regulation of ERV dsRNAs remains uninvestigated. Here, we find that the viral mimicry and subsequent cell death in response to decitabine require the dsRNA-binding protein Staufen1 (Stau1). We show that Stau1 directly binds to ERV RNAs and stabilizes them in a genome-wide manner. Furthermore, Stau1-mediated stabilization requires a long noncoding RNA TINCR, which enhances the interaction between Stau1 and ERV RNAs. Analysis of a clinical patient cohort reveals that MDS and AML patients with lower Stau1 and TINCR expressions exhibit inferior treatment outcomes to DNMTi therapy. Overall, our study reveals the posttranscriptional regulatory mechanism of ERVs and identifies the Stau1-TINCR complex as a potential target for predicting the efficacy of DNMTis and other drugs that rely on dsRNAs.

RESUMEN

Background and Objectives: Acute myeloid leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome are both clonal hematologic malignancies that primarily affect older adults. Current treatments for AML/MDS are both limited in number and efficacy. This study aims to evaluate venetoclax-based therapies in AML/MDS, focusing on overall survival and recurrence-free survival rates, and to expand real-world data on its use. Materials and Methods: Clinical and laboratory data on patients with AML/MDS aged 18≥ treated with venetoclax between January 2019 and July 2022 were included. Survival analysis was calculated based on the period from 2019 to December 2023. Results: A total of 161 AML and 40 patients with MDS were included. The median age was 63.53 ± 15.30 years for AML and 70.12 ± 10.21 years for MDS. In both groups, over 55% are male. A total of 77.6% of patients with AML and 75% of patients with MDS received treatment prior to venetoclax. Venetoclax was administered in combination with azacitidine to 84.5% of AML and 67.5% of MDS. The relapse rate in AML is approximately 15%. Overall, the 2-year survival rate is 46% and 18.73 months. The overall CR/CRi rate for patients with AML is 49.1%, while for patients with MDS, it is 50%. The 2-year survival rate for patients with MDS is 52.7%. The 2-year RFS rate was 75.5% for AML and 90.9% for MDS. The relapse rate in AML is approximately 15%. The percentage of adverse events leading to treatment discontinuation among those with grade 3-4 toxicity is low; 26.7% for AML (n = 43) and 15% for MDS (n = 6). Conclusions: Our real-world data demonstrate that venetoclax has the potential to improve overall survival rates when used in combination with HMAs and supports its use in patients with AML/MDS.

RESUMEN

Germline pathogenic TERT variants are associated with short telomeres and an increased risk of developing myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) among patients with a telomere biology disorder. We identified TERT rare variants in 41 of 1514 MDS patients (2.7%) without a clinical diagnosis of a telomere biology disorder who underwent allogeneic transplantation. Patients with a TERT rare variant had shorter telomere length (P < .001) and younger age at MDS diagnosis (52 vs 59 years, P = .03) than patients without a TERT rare variant. In multivariable models, TERT rare variants were associated with inferior overall survival (P = .034) driven by an increased incidence of nonrelapse mortality (NRM; P = .015). Death from a noninfectious pulmonary cause was more frequent among patients with a TERT rare variant. Most variants were missense substitutions and classified as variants of unknown significance. Therefore, we cloned all rare missense variants and quantified their impact on telomere elongation in a cell-based assay. We found that 90% of TERT rare variants had severe or intermediate impairment in their capacity to elongate telomeres. Using a homology model of human TERT bound to the shelterin protein TPP1, we inferred that TERT rare variants disrupt domain-specific functions, including catalysis, protein-RNA interactions, and recruitment to telomeres. Our results indicate that the contribution of TERT rare variants to MDS pathogenesis and NRM risk is underrecognized. Routine screening for TERT rare variants in MDS patients regardless of age or clinical suspicion may identify clinically inapparent telomere biology disorders and improve transplant outcomes through risk-adapted approaches.

RESUMEN

Increasing evidence supports the role of the immune microenvironment and associated signalling in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Nevertheless, the clinical relevancy of immune signals in patients with MDS remains elusive. To address this, we used single-sample gene-set enrichment analysis to score immune signatures of bone marrow (BM) samples from 176 patients with primary MDS. Enhanced signatures of 'immature dendritic cells' and 'natural killer cells with cluster of differentiation (CD)56bright' were correlated with better overall survival (OS), whilst higher 'CD103+ signature' was associated with reduced survival. An MDS-Immune-Risk (MIR) scoring system was constructed based on the weighted sums derived from Cox regression analysis. High MIR scores were correlated with higher revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) scores and mutations in ASXL transcriptional regulator 1 (ASXL1), Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1), and tumour protein p53 (TP53). High-score patients had significantly inferior leukaemia-free survival (LFS) and OS than low-score patients. The prognostic significance of MIR scores for survival remained valid across IPSS-R subgroups and was validated in two independent cohorts. Multivariable analysis revealed that a higher MIR score was an independent adverse risk factor for LFS and OS. We further proposed a model with the combination of MIR score and gene mutations to be complementary to IPSS-R for the prognostication of LFS and OS of patients with MDS.

RESUMEN

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the only potentially curative treatment for patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), but long-term survival is limited by the risk of transplant-related complications. Short telomere length, mediated by inherited or acquired factors, impairs cellular response to genotoxic and replicative stress and could identify patients at higher risk for toxicity after transplantation. We measured relative telomere length in pretransplant recipient blood samples in 1514 MDS patients and evaluated the association of telomere length with MDS disease characteristics and transplantation outcomes. Shorter telomere length was significantly associated with older age, male sex, somatic mutations that impair the DNA damage response, and more severe pretransplant cytopenias, but not with bone marrow blast count, MDS treatment history, or history of prior cancer therapy. Among 1267 patients ≥40 years old, telomere length in the shortest quartile was associated with inferior survival (P < .001) because of a high risk of nonrelapse mortality (NRM; P = .001) after adjusting for significant clinical and genetic variables. The adverse impact of shorter telomeres on NRM was independent of recipient comorbidities and was observed selectively among patients receiving more intensive conditioning, including myeloablative regimens and higher dose melphalan-based reduced-intensity regimens. The effect of shorter telomeres on NRM was prominent among patients who developed severe acute graft-versus-host disease, suggesting that short telomere length may limit regenerative potential of mucosal tissues after acute injury. MDS patients with shorter telomere length, who have inferior survival driven by excess toxicity, could be considered for strategies focused on minimizing toxic effects of transplantation.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is a group of heterogeneous myeloid clonal diseases originating from hematopoietic stem cells. It has been demonstrated that apolipoproteins A1(ApoA1) are associated with disease risk in many cancer types. However, there still lacks evidence regarding the link between ApoA1 and MDS. This study was designed to investigate the prognostic value of pretreatment ApoA1 levels in MDS patients. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed a cohort of 228 MDS patients to explore the prognostic value of the serum ApoA1 levels at diagnosis. Patients were divided into the high ApoA1 group and the low ApoA1 group. The prognostic significance was determined by univariate and multivariate Cox hazard models. RESULTS: MDS patients with low ApoA1 levels had significantly shorter overall survival (OS, P < 0.0001) along with a higher frequency of TP53 mutation (P = 0.002). Based on univariate analysis, age (≥ 60 years), gender (male), lower levels of hemoglobin (< 10 g/dl), HDL (≤0.91 mmol/L), higher bone marrow blast percentage (> 5%), higher IPSS-R scores and poorer karyotype were significantly associated with decreased OS. However, low ApoA1 level did not influence leukemia-free survival (LFS, P = 0.367). Multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that low ApoA1 level (≤ 1.02 g/L) was also an independent adverse prognostic factor for OS in MDS (P = 0.034). CONCLUSIONS: Decreased ApoA1 level predicts a poor prognosis of MDS patients and thus provides a novel evaluation factor for them that is independent of the IPSS-R system.
