Prognostic role of TET2 deficiency in myelodysplastic syndromes: A meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Tet methylcytosine dioxygenase2 gene (TET2) is one of the most frequently mutated gene in myeloid neoplasm, but the prognostic role of TET2 aberrations in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) remains unclear. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis. Fourteen eligible studies with 1983 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Among these, 2 studies evaluated the impact that the TET2 expression level had on the prognosis. The combined hazard ratios (HR) estimated for overall survival (OS) was 1.00 (95%CI: 0.74 to 1.37; p=0.989) when comparing those with TET2 mutations with those without. Among the patients treated with hypomethylating agents (HMAs) or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), the pooled HR for OS was 1.02 (95% CI: 0.77-1.35, p=0.89) and 1.54 (95%CI: 0.69 to 3.44; p=0.29), respectively. We also conducted an analysis of the response rate to HMAs, and the OR was 1.73 (95%CI: 1.11 to 2.70; p=0.016). Additionally, subgroup analyses showed the pooled HR for OS was 0.93(95%CI: 0.44 to 1.98; P=0.849) in WHO-classified CMML patients and 1.02(95%CI: 1.02 to 3.46; p=0.042) in studies evaluated TET2 expression level. The analysis suggested TET2 mutations had no significant prognostic value on MDS. However, the response rates to HMAs were significantly different between those with and without TET2 mutations, and the low expression level of TET2 gene was significantly associated with a poor OS in MDS patients.

TET2 mutations as a part of DNA dioxygenase deficiency in myelodysplastic syndromes.

Project description:Decrease in DNA dioxygenase activity generated by TET2 gene family is crucial in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The general downregulation of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) argues for a role of DNA demethylation in MDS beyond TET2 mutations, which albeit frequent, do not convey any prognostic significance. We investigated TETs expression to identify factors which can modulate the impact of mutations and thus 5-hmC levels on clinical phenotypes and prognosis of MDS patients. DNA/RNA-sequencing and 5-hmC data were collected from 1665 patients with MDS and 91 controls. Irrespective of mutations, a significant fraction of MDS patients exhibited lower TET2 expression, whereas 5-hmC levels were not uniformly decreased. In searching for factors explaining compensatory mechanisms, we discovered that TET3 was upregulated in MDS and inversely correlated with TET2 expression in wild-type cases. Although TET2 was reduced across all age groups, TET3 levels were increased in a likely feedback mechanism induced by TET2 dysfunction. This inverse relationship of TET2 and TET3 expression also corresponded to the expression of L-2-hydroxyglutarate dehydrogenase, involved in agonist/antagonist substrate metabolism. Importantly, elevated TET3 levels influenced the clinical phenotype of TET2 deficiency whereby the lack of compensation by TET3 (low TET3 expression) was associated with poor outcomes of TET2 mutant carriers.

Prognostic value of SRSF2 mutations in patients with de novo myelodysplastic syndromes: A meta-analysis.

Project description:BackgroundThe recent application of gene-sequencing technology has identified many new somatic mutations in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Among them, serine and arginine rich splicing factor 2 (SRSF2) mutations belonging to the RNA splicing pathway were of interest. Many studies have already reported the potential prognostic value of SRSF2 mutations in MDS patients, with controversial results. Therefore, a meta-analysis was performed to investigate their prognostic impact on MDS.MethodsDatabases, including PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library, were searched for relevant studies published up to 14 October 2016. Overall survival (OS) was selected as the primary endpoint, and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) transformation was the secondary endpoint. We extracted the corresponding hazard ratios (HRs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for OS and AML transformation from multivariate Cox proportional hazards models. The combined HRs with their 95% CIs were calculated using fixed or random effect models.ResultsA total of 10 cohort studies, covering 1864 patients with de novo MDS and 294 patients with SRSF2 mutations, were included in the final meta-analysis. Our results indicated that SRSF2 mutations had an adverse prognostic impact on OS (p<0.0001) and AML transformation (p = 0.0005) in the total population. Among the MDS patients with low or intermediate-1 risk defined according to the International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS), SRSF2 mutations predicted a shorter OS (p = 0.009) and were more likely to transform to AML (p = 0.007).ConclusionsThis meta-analysis indicates an independent, adverse prognostic impact of SRSF2 mutations on OS and AML transformation in patients with de novo MDS. This also applies to the subgroup of low- or intermediate-1-IPSS risk MDS. The identification of mutations in SRSF2 can improve current risk stratification and help make treatment decisions.

Prognostic value of isocitrate dehydrogenase mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes: a retrospective cohort study and meta-analysis.

Project description:BackgroundRecent genomic sequencing efforts have identified a number of recurrent mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) that may contribute to disease progression and overall survival, including mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenases 1 and 2 (IDH1 and IDH2).MethodsPretreatment bone marrow (BM) samples were acquired from mononuclear cells in 146 adult patients with de novo MDS from January 2006 to June 2013. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct sequencing were performed on exon 4 of IDH1/2 genes and mutation status was correlated with overall survival (OS) and leukemia-free survival (LFS). We then performed a meta-analysis combining previously published and current studies to explore the effect of IDH mutations on OS and LFS in MDS.ResultsIn our study, somatic mutations of either IDH gene were discovered in 11 MDS patients (7.53%) and were significantly correlated with poorer OS (P = 0.007). IDH mutations were specifically associated with a poorer OS in the intermediate-1 risk group by the International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) (P = 0.039). In addition, we discovered decitabine achieved a better therapeutic effect compared to other treatments in IDH mutation-positive patients (P = 0.023). We identified six previous studies of IDH mutations in MDS. A meta-analysis of these studies included 111 MDS patients IDH mutations and 1671 MDS patients with wild-type IDH1/2. The hazard ratios (HRs) of OS and LFS for patients with IDH mutations were 1.62 (95% CI, 1.27-2.09) and 2.21 (95% CI, 1.48-3.30), respectively.ConclusionThe results from our study and the meta-analysis provide firm evidence that IDH mutations are significantly associated with poorer clinical outcomes in MDS. Identification of IDH mutations may be pivotal for better risk stratification in MDS patients and improving IPSS score. Additionally, hypomethylating agents may be an effective treatment option for MDS patients with IDH mutations.

Prognostic significance of SETBP1 mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, and chronic neutrophilic leukemia: A meta-analysis.

Project description:ObjectivesThis meta-analysis investigates the prognostic effect of SET binding protein 1 (SETBP1) mutations in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), or chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL).MethodsEligible studies from Pubmed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched from database inception through April 2016. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of overall survival (OS) were pooled to calculate the prognostic significance of SETBP1 mutation in patients.ResultsA total of 12 studies with 2321 patients were included in this meta-analysis; 4 studies for MDS, 5 studies for CMML, and 3 studies for CNL. Pooled results suggested that MDS and CMML patients with SETBP1 mutations had a significantly poorer prognosis when compared with patients with wild-type SETBP1 (MDS: HR = 1.808, 95% CI (1.218-2.685), P = 0.001; CMML: HR = 2.223, 95% CI (1.493-3.308), P<0.001). SETBP1 mutations in CNL patients however, showed no significant effect on the overall survival (HR = 1.773, 95% CI (0.877-3.582), P = 0.111). The Begg's and Egger's tests did not show significant publication bias in any groups.ConclusionsCurrent evidence shows that SETBP1 mutation is associated with a poor prognosis in patients with MDS and CMML, but not in patients with CNL.

Acquired mutations in TET2 are common in myelodysplastic syndromes

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) represent a heterogeneous group of neoplastic hematopoietic disorders. Several recurrent chromosomal aberrations have been associated with MDS, but the genes affected have remained largely unknown. To identify relevant genetic lesions involved in the pathogenesis of MDS, we performed SNP-array-based genomic profiling and genomic sequencing in 102 patients. We identified acquired deletions, missense and nonsense mutations in a new gene, TET2, in 26% of MDS patients. Using allele-specific assays, TET2 mutations were shown to be present in the majority of the myeloid cells (56-100%, median 96%). In addition, the mutations were encountered in various lineages of differentiation including CD34+ progenitor cells, suggesting that TET2 mutations occur early during disease evolution. In healthy tissues TET2 expression was shown to be elevated in hematopoietic cells with highest expression in granulocytes, in line with a function in myelopoiesis. We conclude that TET2 is the most frequently mutated gene in MDS known so far.

Complex karyotype in myelodysplastic syndromes: Diagnostic procedure and prognostic susceptibility.

Project description:Complex karyotype (CK) is a poor prognosis factor in hematological malignancies. Studies have shown that the presence of CK in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) can be associated with MDS progression to acute myeloid leukemia. The goal of this review was to examine the relationship between different types of CK with MDS, as well as its possible role in the deterioration and progression of MDS to leukemia. The content used in this paper has been obtained by a PubMed and Google Scholar search of English language papers (1975-2018) using the terms complex karyotype and myelodysplastic syndromes. A single independent abnormality can be associated with a good prognosis. However, the coexistence of a series of abnormalities can lead to CK, which is associated with the deterioration of MDS and its progression to leukemia. Therefore, CK may be referred to as a prognostic factor in MDS. The detection of independent cytogenetic disorders that altogether can result in CK could be used as a prognostic model for laboratory and clinical use.

Prognostic Impact of Platelet-Large Cell Ratio In Myelodysplastic Syndromes.

Project description:BackgroundMyelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) are a very heterogeneous group of myeloid disorders with high prevalence and risk of developing acute myeloid leukemia. The more accurate risk stratification can provide a better guidance of treatment. The platelet-large cell ratio (P-LCR) is a parameter reported in complete blood cell count tests, and was associated with many diseases, but its role in MDS is not clear.PurposeThis study aims to explore the impact of the P-LCR on the prognosis of patients with MDS, which is of great significance for clinical treatment.MethodsIn the retrospective study, 122 newly diagnosed MDS patients were enrolled. We used the bioinformatics tool X-tile to define a P-LCR threshold of 36.7% to predict prognosis. Patients were divided into P-LCRlow and P-LCRhigh groups, and their characteristics were compared between the two groups.ResultsResults show that the P-LCRlow was associated with worse overall survival (OS) than the P-LCRhigh patients (median OS, 18.53 months versus 25.77 months, p=0.0057), but there were no statistical differences in progression-free survival (PFS) between the two groups (p=0.2001). The results of univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses adjusted for gender, bone marrow blast level, platelet count, and International Prognostic Scoring System scores showed that the P-LCR was useful in the evaluation of PFS [hazard ratio (HR) 0.212, 95%CI 0.064-0.702, p=0.011] and OS of MDS (HR 0.464, 95%CI 0.284-0.757, p=0.002).ConclusionThis study is the first report showing that the P-LCR would be a simple and immediately available biomarker for predicting the prognosis of MDS.

Comparison and Implications of Mutational Profiles of Myelodysplastic Syndromes, Myeloproliferative Neoplasms, and Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms: A Meta-Analysis.

Project description:Dysplasia and proliferation are histological properties that can be used to diagnose and categorize myeloid tumors in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). However, these conditions are not exclusive, and overlap between them leads to another classification, MDS/MPN. As well as phenotype continuity, these three conditions may have genetic relationships that have not yet been identified. This study aimed to obtain their mutational profiles by meta-analysis and explore possible similarities and differences. We reviewed screening studies of gene mutations, published from January 2000 to March 2020, from PubMed and Web of Science. Fifty-three articles were eligible for the meta-analysis, and at most 9,809 cases were involved for any gene. The top mutant genes and their pooled mutation rates were as follows: SF3B1 (20.2% [95% CI 11.6-30.5%]) in MDS, TET2 (39.2% [95% CI 21.7-52.0%]) in MDS/MPN, and JAK2 (67.9% [95% CI 64.1-71.6%]) in MPN. Subgroup analysis revealed that leukemic transformation-related genes were more commonly mutated in high-risk MDS (MDS with multilineage dysplasia and MDS with excess blasts) than that in other MDS entities. Thirteen genes including ASXL1, U2AF1, SRSF2, SF3B1, and ZRSR2 had significantly higher mutation frequencies in primary myelofibrosis (PMF) compared with essential thrombocythemia and polycythemia vera; this difference distinguished PMF from MPN and likened it to MDS. Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia and atypical chronic myeloid leukemia were similar entities but showed several mutational differences. A heat map demonstrated that juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and MDS/MPN with ring sideroblasts and thrombocytosis were two distinct entities, whereas MDS/MPN-unclassifiable was closest to high-risk MDS. Such genetic closeness or difference reflected features in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, treatment, and progression of these conditions, and could inspire future genetic studies.

Myelodysplastic syndromes.

Project description:The myelodysplastic syndromes are a diverse group of clonal stem cell disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, peripheral cytopenias, and an increased propensity to evolve to acute myeloid leukemia. The molecular pathogenesis of these disorders is poorly understood, but recurring chromosomal abnormalities occur in approximately 50% of cases and are the focus of much investigation. The availability of newer molecular techniques has allowed the identification of additional genetic aberrations, including mutations and epigenetic changes of prognostic and potential therapeutic importance. This review focuses on the key role of cytogenetic analysis in myelodysplastic syndromes in the context of the diagnosis, prognosis, and pathogenesis of these disorders.

Stem cell factor SALL4, a potential prognostic marker for myelodysplastic syndromes.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of heterogeneous diseases with variable clinical course. Predicting disease progression is difficult due to lack of specific molecular marker(s). SALL4 plays important roles in normal hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis. SALL4 transgenic mice develop MDS prior to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) transformation. However, the role of SALL4 in human MDS has not been extensively investigated. In this study, we evaluate the diagnostic/prognostic value of SALL4 in MDS by examining its expression levels in a cohort of MDS patients. METHODS: Fifty-five newly diagnosed MDS, twenty MDS-AML, and sixteen post-treatment MDS patients were selected for our study along with ten healthy donors. RESULTS: We demonstrated that SALL4 was over-expressed in MDS patients and proportionally increased in MDS patients with high grade/IPSS scores. This expression pattern was similar to that of Bmi-1, an important marker in predicting MDS/AML progression. In addition, the level of SALL4 was positively correlated with increased blast counts, high-risk keryotypes and increased significantly in MDS-AML transformation. Furthermore, higher level of SALL4 expression was associated with worse survival rates and SALL4 level decreased following effective therapy. CONCLUSIONS: To the best of our knowledge, this is the largest series and the first to report the expression pattern of SALL4 in detail in various subtypes of MDS in comparison to that of Bmi-1. We conclude that SALL4 is a potential molecular marker in predicting the prognosis of MDS.
