ABSTRACT
We conducted a retrospective analysis of WT1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients who underwent allogeneic stem cell transplant. Thirty-seven patients with WT1-mutated AML were identified. Primary induction failure (40%) and early relapse rate (18%) after idarubicin/cytarabine (7 + 3) chemotherapy were observed. All patients with induction failure subsequently achieved CR with additional chemotherapy. There was no significant difference between outcomes after myeloablative vs. reduced intensity (Fludarabine/Melphalan [Flu/Mel]) conditioning regimens. RFS but not OS was significantly better in patients who received FLAG-IDA prior to transplant and/or a fludarabine-containing conditioning. In an independent ex vivo study, WT1-mutated AML samples exhibited greater sensitivity to fludarabine (p = 0.026) and melphalan (p = 0.0005) than non-WT1-mutated AML samples while there was no difference between sensitivity to cytarabine. Our data favor using a fludarabine-based induction for AML with WT1 mutation instead of 7 + 3. Fludarabine conditioning regimens for alloHCT showed better RFS but not OS.
