Abstrakt: | Aim: To estimate the extent of FLT3 and NPM1 gene mutations and the impact of mutations of FLT3-ITD on the survival of patients with acute myeloid leukemias (AML). Materials and Methods: The nucleus-containing cells of bone marrow and blood were studied in 43 patients with AML. Polymerase chain reaction analysis of total genomic DNA was applied. Results: Mutations of FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TDK, and the NPM1 gene were found in 16 (37.2%) patients. A total of 19 mutations were revealed. There were 8 mutations of FLT3-ITD, 5 of FLT3-TKD, and 6 in the NPM1 gene. Single damages to genes were detected in 13 patients: FLT3-ITD in 6 (13.9%), FLT3-TKD in 4 (9.3%), and NPM1 in 3 (7%). Three (7%) patients exhibited 2 mutations simultaneously: in the NPM1 and FLT3-ITD in 2 (4.7%) and in the NPM1 gene and FLT3-TKD in 1 (2.3%). In AML patients with a normal karyotype and the FLT3-ITD-/NPM1 and FLT3-ITD+/ NPM-T genotypes, median overall survival was 17.3 versus 8 months (p = 0.069); and event-free survival (EFS) was 11 versus 5 months (p = 0.026). Univariate analysis established the negative impact of FLT3-1TD mutation on EFS. Conclusion: The findings allow AML patients with a normal karyotype and the FLT3-ITD-/NPM-genotypes to be identified as a poor prognosis group. |
