Personalized Medicine for TP53 Mutated Myelodysplastic Syndromes and Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

ABSTRACT: Targeting TP53 mutated myelodysplastic syndromes and acute myeloid leukemia remains a significant unmet need. Recently, new drugs have attempted to improve the outcomes of this poor molecular subgroup. The aim of this article is to review all the current knowledge using active agents including hypomethylating agents with venetoclax, eprenetapopt or magrolimab. We include comprehensive analysis of clinical trials to date evaluating these drugs in TP53 myeloid neoplasms as well as discuss future novel combinations for consideration. Additionally, further understanding of the unique clinicopathologic components of TP53 mutant myeloid neoplasms versus wild-type is critical to guide future study. Importantly, the clinical trajectory of patients is uniquely tied with the clonal burden of TP53, which enables serial TP53 variant allele frequency analysis to be a critical early biomarker in investigational studies. Together, significant optimism is now possible for improving outcomes in this patient population.

Project description:BackgroundThe molecular determinants of clinical responses to decitabine therapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are unclear.MethodsWe enrolled 84 adult patients with AML or MDS in a single-institution trial of decitabine to identify somatic mutations and their relationships to clinical responses. Decitabine was administered at a dose of 20 mg per square meter of body-surface area per day for 10 consecutive days in monthly cycles. We performed enhanced exome or gene-panel sequencing in 67 of these patients and serial sequencing at multiple time points to evaluate patterns of mutation clearance in 54 patients. An extension cohort included 32 additional patients who received decitabine in different protocols.ResultsOf the 116 patients, 53 (46%) had bone marrow blast clearance (<5% blasts). Response rates were higher among patients with an unfavorable-risk cytogenetic profile than among patients with an intermediate-risk or favorable-risk cytogenetic profile (29 of 43 patients [67%] vs. 24 of 71 patients [34%], P<0.001) and among patients with TP53 mutations than among patients with wild-type TP53 (21 of 21 [100%] vs. 32 of 78 [41%], P<0.001). Previous studies have consistently shown that patients with an unfavorable-risk cytogenetic profile and TP53 mutations who receive conventional chemotherapy have poor outcomes. However, in this study of 10-day courses of decitabine, neither of these risk factors was associated with a lower rate of overall survival than the rate of survival among study patients with intermediate-risk cytogenetic profiles.ConclusionsPatients with AML and MDS who had cytogenetic abnormalities associated with unfavorable risk, TP53 mutations, or both had favorable clinical responses and robust (but incomplete) mutation clearance after receiving serial 10-day courses of decitabine. Although these responses were not durable, they resulted in rates of overall survival that were similar to those among patients with AML who had an intermediate-risk cytogenetic profile and who also received serial 10-day courses of decitabine.
