ABSTRACT
Risk-adapted therapy is recommended to prevent major clinical complications, such as thrombo-haemorrhagic events, in patients with essential thrombocythaemia (ET). In this study, we analysed the association between non-driver gene mutations and thrombo-haemorrhagic events in 579 patients with ET. ASXL1 and TP53 mutations were frequently identified in patients with ET complicated by thrombosis (22.7% and 23.1%, respectively), and the DNMT3A mutation was frequently identified in patients who experienced haemorrhage (15.2%). Multivariate analyses of thrombosis-free survival (TFS) revealed that ASXL1 and TP53 mutations are associated with thrombosis (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.140 and 3.752 respectively). Patients harbouring the ASXL1 or TP53 mutation had significantly worse TFS rates than those without mutation (p = 0.002 and p < 0.001 respectively). Furthermore, JAK2V617F-mutated patients with accompanying ASXL1 mutations showed significantly shorter TFS compared with those without ASXL1 mutations (p = 0.003). Multivariate analyses of haemorrhage-free survival (HFS) revealed that the DNMT3A mutation (HR = 2.784) is associated with haemorrhage. DNMT3A-mutated patients showed significantly shorter HFS than those without the mutation (p = 0.026). Non-driver gene mutations should be considered in treatment strategies and may provide important information for personalised treatment approaches.
