The role of the nucleophosmin (NPM1) mutations in de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is well analyzed, but the impact in secondary AML (s-AML) following myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) or transformed myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) remains unclear. We investigated 350 patients-283 s-AML after MDS and 67 transformed MPNs-for NPM1mut. NPM1mut was detected in 43/350 patients (12.3%) at diagnosis of s-AML...
