Chronic myeloid leukemia; BCR-ABL1 transcripts; Response to imatinib Leucemia mieloide crónica; Transcripciones de BCR-ABL1; Respuesta al imatinib Leucèmia mieloide crònica; Transcripcions BCR-ABL1; Resposta a imatinib The most frequent BCR-ABL1-p210 transcripts in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) are e14a2 and e13a2. Imatinib (IM) is the most common first-line tyrosine–kinase inhibitor (TKI) used to treat CML. Some studies suggest that BCR-ABL1 transcript types confer different responses to IM. The objective of this study was to correlate the expression of e14a2 or e13a2 to clinical characteristics, cumulative cytogenetic and molecular responses to IM, acquisition of deep molecular response …
Myelodysplastic Syndromes with 20q Deletion: Incidence, Prognostic Value and Impact on Response to Azacitidine of ASXL1 Chromosomal Deletion and Gene…
2020
Introduction : The 20q deletion [del(20q)] is a recurrent chromosomal aberration in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and, as a single abnormality, is associated according to the Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) with a favorable outcome. However, the breakpoint of del(20q) is very heterogeneous and may cause deletion of the ASXL1 gene (20q11.21). This gene is an important epigenetic regulator of hematopoiesis and its mutations have been associated in MDS with a shorter overall survival (OS) and a lower response to azacitidine (AZA). Aim: To assess the incidence, prognostic value and impact on response to AZA of ASXL1 chromosomal alterations and genetic mutations in MDS…
Acute myeloid leukemia with NPM1 mutation and favorable European LeukemiaNet category: outcome after preemptive intervention based on measurable resi…
2020
In the European LeukemiaNet favourable risk category, allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) is not indicated in first complete remission for patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with NPM1 mutations (ELNfav NPM1 AML), although a proportion of these patients will relapse. Given the prognostic importance of measurable residual disease (MRD), CETLAM-12 considered a pre-emptive intervention in patients with molecular failure (MF). We analyzed 110 ELNfav NPM1 AML patients achieving complete remission (CR) after induction chemotherapy. Two-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), overall survival (OS) and leukaemia-free survival (LFS) were 17%, 81 center dot 5% an…
rs2431697, a Polymorphism of Mir-146a, Is a Precozing Marker of Progression to Secondary Myelofibrosis: New Epigenetic Regulation of Jak/Stat3 Signal…

Abstract Introduction: Transformation to secondary myelofibrosis (MF) occurs as part of the natural history of polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET), the two more indolent Ph-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Once transformed, survival is remarkably shorted. Chronic inflammation plays a critical role in the progression of MPN, driving clonal expansion toward end stage disease. Importantly, MPN are characterized by the production of inflammatory cytokines, by both malignant and non-malignant clone. Inflammation and cancer share a common pathway, i.e. NF-κB. Interestingly, miR-146a regulates TLR/NF-κB pathway through the inhibition of its targets, IRAK1 and TRAF…
Favorable Outcome in Patients with Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia (AML) with NPM1 Mutation Who Present an Inadequate Clearance or Relapse of Minimal/Mea…
2018
Abstract Introduction Patients diagnosed with AML with NPM1mutation (NPM1mut AML) included in the European LeukemiaNet favorable genetic risk category (ELNfav, i.e., without FLT3-ITD or with a low allelic burden FLT3-ITD comutation [FLT3-ITD/FLT3wt <0.5; FLT3-ITDLOW]) do not benefit from an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) in first complete remission (CR1). However, a significant proportion of these patients fail to frontline chemotherapy and require salvage therapy. Persistence or detection of MRD after post-CR treatment is associated with a high relapse risk and worse prognosis. With this background, the cooperative group CETLAM proposed an early therapeutic intervention …
