- Abstract
NPM 1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) shows unique features. However, the characteristics of "therapy-related" NPM1-mutated AML (t-NPM1 AML) are poorly understood. We compared the genetics, transcriptional profile, and clinical outcomes of t-NPM1 AML, de novo NPM1-mutated AML (dn-NPM1 AML), and therapy-related AML (t-AML) with wild-type NPM1 (t-AML). Normal karyotype was more frequent in t-NPM1 AML (n = 78/96, 88%) and dn-NPM1 (n = 1986/2394, 88%) than in t-AML (n = 103/390, 28%; P < .001). DNMT3A and TET2 were mutated in 43% and 40% of t-NPM1 AML (n = 107), similar to dn-NPM1 (n = 88, 48% and 30%; P > 0.1), but more frequently than t-AML (n = 162; 14% and 10%; P < 0.001). Often mutated in t-AML, TP53 and PPM1D were wild-type in 97% and 96% of t-NPM1 AML, respectively. t-NPM1 and dn-NPM1 AML were transcriptionally similar, (including HOX genes upregulation). At 62 months of median follow-up, the 3-year overall survival (OS) for t-NPM1 AML (n = 96), dn-NPM1 AML (n = 2394), and t-AML (n = 390) were 54%, 60%, and 31%, respectively. In multivariable analysis, OS was similar for the NPM1-mutated groups (hazard ratio [HR] 0.9; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.65-1.25; P = .45), but better in t-NPM1 AML than in t-AML (HR, 1.86; 95% CI, 1.30-2.68; P < .001). Relapse-free survival was similar between t-NPM1 and dn-NPM1 AML (HR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.72-1.467; P = .90), but significantly higher in t-NPM1 AML versus t-AML (HR, 1.77; 95% CI, 1.19-2.64; P = .0045). t-NPM1 and dn-NPM1 AML have overlapping features, suggesting that they should be classified as a single disease entity., (© 2023 by The American Society of Hematology.)
