Title:

CXCR4 Mutational Status Does Not Impact Outcomes in Patients with Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia Treated with Proteasome Inhibitors

Excerpt:
All patients were participants on three prospective clinical trials evaluating the combinations of bortezomib, dexamethasone and rituximab (BDR...The median PFS for patients without CXCR4 mutations was 3.6 years (95% CI 1.7-5.9 years) versus 6.5 years (95% CI 2.7-not reached) for patients with CXCR4 mutations, which was not statistically significantly different (HR 0.59, 95% CI 0.29-1.17; p=0.13). Frameshift CXCR4 mutations were associated with better PFS than nonsense CXCR4 mutations in a multivariate Cox regression model (HR 0.22, 95% CI 0.06-0.80; p=0.02). Patients with CXCR4 mutations had a 10-year SAFTI rate of 75% (95% CI 13-96%) versus 83% (95% CI 27-97%) in patients without CXCR4 mutations, which was not statistically significantly different (HR 3.01, 95% CI 0.17-52.6; p=0.45).
