MRD assessed by WT1 and NPM1 transcript levels identifies distinct outcomes in AML patients and is influenced by gemtuzumab ozogamicin.

ABSTRACT: We analysed the prognostic significance of minimal residual disease (MRD) level in adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated in the randomized gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) ALFA-0701 trial. Levels of WT1 and NPM1 gene transcripts were assessed using cDNA-based real-time quantitative PCR in 183 patients with WT1 overexpression and in 77 patients with NMP1 mutation (NPM1mut) at diagnosis. Positive WT1 MRD (defined as > 0.5% in the peripheral blood) after induction and at the end of treatment were both significantly associated with a higher risk of relapse and a shorter overall survival (OS). Positive NPM1mut MRD (defined as > 0.1% in the bone marrow) after induction and at the end of treatment also predicted a higher risk of relapse, but did not influence OS. Interestingly, the achievement of a negative NPM1mut MRD was significantly more frequent in patients treated in the GO arm compared to those treated in control arm (39 % versus 7% (p=0.006) after induction and 91% versus 61% (p=0.028) at the end of treatment). However, GO did not influence WT1 MRD levels. Our study supports the prognostic significance of MRD assessed by WT1 and NPM1mut transcript levels and show that NPM1 MRD is decreased by GO treatment.

Project description:BackgroundBased on the results from the ALFA-0701 study, gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) has been approved by the European Medicine Agency and by the Italian Drug Agency for the first line treatment of de novo acute-myeloid leukemia (AML). In this analysis, we assessed the cost-effectiveness of GO in combination with daunorubicin and cytarabine (DA), vs DA alone, adopting the perspective of the Italian National Health Service.MethodsFor this analysis, a cohort state transition model was developed. The model was designed to capture health states and events that occur throughout the entire disease course and that impact costs and outcomes. The ALFA-0701 study was the main source of clinical data for this analysis. In the model, patients had the same baseline characteristics and experienced the same clinical improvements as in the ALFA-0701 study. Economic data (resource consumption and unit costs) were adapted to reflect expenditure for the Italian National Health Service. Utilities per health state and disutilities due to adverse events were based on the literature and on the general population for those functionally cured. A lifetime horizon was adopted, with both costs and outcome being discounted of 3.0%, annually. Deterministic and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted to assess the robustness of results.ResultsIn the base case (lifetime horizon; primary source of data: study ALFA-0701; perspective: Italian National Health Service; discount rate on costs and outcomes: 3.0%), GO + DA was more effective DA both in terms of life-year (LY) survival (6.42 LY vs 5.75 LY, respectively) and quality-of-life adjusted survival (4.69 QALY vs 4.19 QALY, respectively). The overall costs were almost similar in the two groups (slightly lower with GO + DA than with DA; €162,424 and €162,708, respectively). The use of GO increased the costs of drug therapy but saved costs of relapse and costs associated with transplantation (HSCT).ConclusionsIf results of the ALFA-0701 study are applied to the Italian healthcare environment, then gemtuzumab ozogamicin, in combination with daunorubicin and cytarabine, would clinical outcomes and reduce lifetime costs, compared with daunorubicin and cytarabine alone for the first line treatment of de novo AML.Trial registrationNot applicable.
