Popis: | Abstract 1394 Background: Acute erythroid leukemia (AEL) is characterized by a predominant erythroid population and is comprising Aims: Molecular and cytogenetic characterization of AEL and identification of genes with prognostic impact. Patients and Methods: We studied an unselected cohort of 94 AEL patients including 32 female and 62 male cases; median age was 69.0 yrs (range: 21.3–88.3 yrs). Survival data was available in 73 cases; median survival was 15.9 months. First, chromosome banding analysis (n=94) was performed. In addition, all cases with normal karyotype (NK) were investigated by CGH arrays (n=32) (Human CGH 12×270K Whole-Genome Tiling Array, Roche NimbleGen, Madison, WI). Further, mutation screening for ASXL1 (n=87), CEBPA (n=94), DNMT3A (n=94), FLT3 (both internal tandem duplication (ITD) (n=93), and tyrosine-kinase domain (TKD) mutations (n=85)), IDH1 (n=93), IDH2 (n=65), NRAS (n=91), KRAS (n=93), MLL-PTD (n=79), NPM1 (n=94), RUNX1 (n=94), TP53 (n=94), and WT1 (n=90) was performed by 454 amplicon deep-sequencing (Roche, Branford, CT), Sanger sequencing or melting curve analyses. CGH array data analysis was performed using Nexus Copy Number 6.0 (BioDiscovery Inc, El Segundo, CA). Results: Cytogenetic data was available for all cases: 48 cases (51.1%) presented an intermediate-risk and 46 (48.9%) cases an unfavorable cytogenetic category according to the MRC Classification. By CGH array analysis 30/32 cases retained a NK, whereas in two cases small aberrations were detected: case 1: deletion of the CEBPA gene, case 2: duplication 11q13.3 to 11q25 including the ATM and MLL gene. Molecular mutations were detected in 85/94 patients (90.4%). 63.5% (54/85) of mutated patients carried one, whereas 36.5% (31/85) of cases harbored two (n=22) or more (n=9) mutations. In detail, TP53 was the most frequently mutated gene (41 cases, 43.6%). Other alterations were detected in NPM1 (15/94; 16.0%); DNMT3A (12/94; 12.8%); ASXL1 (8/87; 9.2%); MLL-PTD (7/79; 8.9%); RUNX1 (8/94; 8.5%); IDH1 (6/93; 6.5%); WT1 (5/90; 5.6%); IDH2 (3/65; 4.6%); NRAS (3/91; 3.3%); KRAS (3/93; 3.2%); FLT3-ITD (3/93, 3.2%), FLT3-TKD (3/85, 3.5%), and CEBPA (1/94). First, we were interested in any correlation with the respective karyotype and observed that NPM1, RUNX1, and WT1 mutations correlated with an intermediate-risk karyotype (NPM1: 15/48 vs 0/46, P Conclusions: (1) The frequency of cases with complex or other adverse karyotypes within the AEL cohort is very high (48.9%), (2) 93.7% of cases with NK also showed a NK using high-resolution CGH arrays. (3) Overall, a remarkably high mutation frequency of 90.4% was found. (4) NPM1 and RUNX1mut were exclusively detected in the cytogenetically intermediate-risk MRC, TP53 mut predominantly in the MRC adverse group and mainly in cases with complex karyotype. (5) In addition to chromosome banding analysis mutation screening of RUNX1 and NPM1 in cases with intermediate-risk karyotype should be considered for better prognostication.
