Abstract
Introduction
The 2022 WHO and ICC classifications identify MDS-related cytogenetic abnormalities and secondary gene mutations (SM) that in de novo disease are diagnostic of myelodysplasia-related AML, which confers a poorer prognosis. While most MDS-related abnormalities overlap between the two classifications, trisomy 8 (+8) is unique to the ICC and has not been previously included as an MDS-related abnormality. In light of this, we sought to determine the prognostic significance of +8 as an MDS-related abnormality in patients with de novo AML lacking other MDS-related cytogenetics.
Methods
We identified 337 patients with de novo AML lacking MDS-related cytogenetics other than +8 and analyzed clinicopathologic outcomes, overall survival (OS), and relapse-free survival (RFS). Two groups were identified: AML with SM (n = 195, 57.9%) and AML without SM (n = 142, 42.1%). Fifty-nine (17.5%) patients had +8; 39 (66.1%) of these had at least one SM, while 20 (33.9%) did not.
Results
Among patients treated with induction or hypomethylating agents (n = 317), OS and RFS were significantly shorter in patients with SM than without (OS: p = 0.001, RFS: p = 0.0004) but not significantly different between patients with and without +8 (OS: p = 0.15, RFS: p = 0.35). Similarly, when cases were limited to those with SM (n = 179), no significant difference in OS or RFS was observed between patients with and without +8 (OS: p = 0.21, RFS: p = 0.30). There was no significant association between +8 and SM (p = 0.15).
Conclusion
In our cohort, unlike MDS-related SM, trisomy 8 does not influence OS or RFS, despite its inclusion in the ICC as an MDS-related abnormality.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Laboratory Hematology provides a forum for the communication of new developments, research topics and the practice of laboratory haematology.
The journal publishes invited reviews, full length original articles, and correspondence.
The International Journal of Laboratory Hematology is the official journal of the International Society for Laboratory Hematology, which addresses the following sub-disciplines: cellular analysis, flow cytometry, haemostasis and thrombosis, molecular diagnostics, haematology informatics, haemoglobinopathies, point of care testing, standards and guidelines.
The journal was launched in 2006 as the successor to Clinical and Laboratory Hematology, which was first published in 1979. An active and positive editorial policy ensures that work of a high scientific standard is reported, in order to bridge the gap between practical and academic aspects of laboratory haematology.
