Abstract:
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous malignancy with outcomes largely predicted by genetic abnormalities. Mutations of NPM1 are common in AML, occurring in ∼30% of cases, and generally considered a favorable risk factor. Mutations highly specific for secondary AML (sMut) have been shown to confer poor prognosis, but the overall impact of these mutations in the setting of favorable-risk AML defined by mutant NPM1 remains unclear. In this multicenter study of patients with AML (n = 233) with NPM1 mutation at diagnosis, we observed that patients with sMut had worse overall survival (OS) than those without sMut (15.3 vs 43.7 months; P = .002). Importantly, this finding persisted in the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) 2017–defined favorable risk subset (14.7 months vs not reached; P & lt; .0001). Among patients who achieved NPM1 measurable residual disease (MRD) negativity, longer OS was observed in the entire cohort (P = .015) as well as in both the sMut subset (MRD negative: median OS (mOS) 73.9 months vs MRD positive: 12.3 months; P = .0170) and sMut ELN 2017–favorable subset (MRD negative: mOS 27.3 vs MRD positive: 10.5 months; P = .009). Co-occurrence of sMut and mutant NPM1 confers a poor prognosis in AML.
