Title:

6 Poor Treatment Outcomes of Young (<60 Years) African American Patients (Pts) Diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) (Alliance)

Published date:
11/04/2020
Excerpt:
To characterize molecular features we performed targeted sequencing of 81 genes in 1,339 AML pts treated on frontline Cancer and Leukemia Group B/Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology (Alliance) protocols based on standard intensity cytarabine/anthracycline induction...Lastly, we performed uni- and multivariable outcome analyses for OS in our Alliance pts. Remarkably, being NPM1-mutated and not being AA were the only positive prognostic factors associated with longer OS in the final risk model (NPM1 mut vs wt, HR=0.72, P<.001; Caucasian vs AA, HR=0.72, P=.03).

Title:

Studying Tissue and Blood Samples From Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Excerpt:
...Determine the frequency of specific gene markers (i.e., FLT3 ITD, CBF, MLL PTD, NPM1, KIT, RAS, CEBPA, WT1, JAK2, RUNX1, TET2, CBL, IDH1 and IDH2, ASXL1, mutations, aberrant BAALC, ERG, FLT3, MN1, EVI1, and APP) over-expression and levels of promoter methylation of specific genes (e.g., ESR1, WIT1, P15, MYOD1, ID4, DPK) in defined cytogenetic subgroups of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML)...
