Only FLT3-ITD co-mutation did not have a deleterious effect on acute myeloid leukemia patients with NPM1 mutation, but concomitant with DNMT3A co-mutation or a < 3log reduction of MRD2 predicted poor survival.

Abstract excerpt

Co-occurring mutations are frequently observed in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with NPM1 mutation, and NPM1 measurable residual disease (MRD) is an effective prognostic biomarker. This retrospective study investigated the impact of gene co-mutations and NPM1 MRD on outcomes in these patients. Among 234 patients, 11.5% carried the rare type NPM1 mutation (NPM1RT). The median age was 49 years (IQR 36-58), with a...
