Ruxolitinib combined with prednisone, thalidomide and danazol in patients with myelofibrosis: Results of a pilot study. Hematol Oncol 2022; 40:787-795. [PMID: 35609279 DOI: 10.1002/hon.3026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2022] [Revised: 04/26/2022] [Accepted: 05/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022]
Abstract
Ruxolitinib is a safe and effective therapy of myeloproliferative neoplasm-associated (MPN) myelofibrosis. However, often there are dose reductions and/or therapy interruptions because of therapy-related adverse events (AEs), especially anemia and thrombocytopenia. We previously reported combined therapy with prednisone, thalidomide and danazol (PTD) reversed anemia and thrombocytopenia in people with MPN-associated myelofibrosis. We wondered whether adding PTD to ruxolitinib might mitigate the hematologic AEs and thereby avoid the dose reduction of ruxolitinib and improve the efficacy. To test this hypothesis, we conducted a baseline hemoglobin and platelet concentration assignment prospective observational study in 72 patients comparing 3-month dose adjustment and efficacy of ruxolitinib with (N = 53, the study group) or without (N = 19, the control group) PTD. According to the platelet counts, the median daily ruxolitinib doses in the study group increased from 30 to 40 mg by week 12, whereas in the control group it remained at 30 mg (p = 0.019). In the study group 35 patients had a hemoglobin increase ≥10 g/L compared with no patient receiving ruxolitinib only (p < 0.001). Platelet increases >100 × 10E+9/L were seen in 56.6% and 5.3% of patients in the two groups, respectively (p < 0.001). In patients with anemia and thrombocytopenia, 18 patients in the study group had an anemia response at week 12 and 12 had a platelet increase of ≥50 × 10E+9/L. No patient in the control group achieved either response (p < 0.001 and p = 0.078). The study group had a more spleen response than the control group (p = 0.046). Peripheral edema and transaminase elevation were the main nonhematologic AEs of PTD. These AEs can be alleviated by adjusting the danazol dose. In conclusion, adding PTD to ruxolitinib improved ruxolitinib-associated anemia and thrombocytopenia, and resulted in a higher ruxolitinib dose.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the prognostic value of MIPSS70-plus in Chinese patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) . Methods: A total of 113 Chinese patients with PMF were retrospectively analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method, Log-rank test, and Cox proportional hazard regression model were performed to evaluate the prognostic factors. The likelihood ratio test was used to evaluate the predictive power between MIPSS70-plus and DIPSS systems. Results: The median age of the Chinese patients was 55 (range: 20-70) years, including 71 males and 42 females. According to the standard of MIPSS70-plus system, 99 patients (79.6% ) had a favorable karyotype and 23 patients (20.4% ) had an unfavorable karyotype. JAK2V617F in 55.8% (n=63) , CALR exon9 in 17.7% (including 15 CALR type 1 and 5 CALR type 2, n=20) , MPLW515 in 4.4% (n=5) , and triple negative (no detectable JAK2, MPL, and CALR mutations) in 22.1% of patients in our cohort were found by target-specific next-generation sequencing approach. At least one high-molecular risk mutations were presented in 45.1% (n=51) of patients, with ASXL1 in 38.9% (n=44) , SRSF2 in 7.1% (n=8) , IDH1/2 in 4.4% (n=5) , and EZH2 in 3.5% (n=4) of patients. A total of 28 patients (26.7% ) were in low risk, 20 (19.0% ) in intermediate risk, 41 (39.0% ) in high risk, and 16 (15.3% ) in very-high risk categories, which were delineated for the MIPSS70-plus model. A 2-year OS was 100% in low risk, 89.7% (95% CI 76.2% -100.0% ) in intermediate risk, 64.8% (95% CI 47.0% -82.6% ) in high risk, and 35.0% (95% CI 10.3% -59.7% ) in very-high risk categories, which had a significant difference (P<0.001) . A significantly higher predictive power for survival of the MIPSS70-plus group was observed compared with the DIPSS group (P=0.001, -2 log-likelihood ratios of 86.355 vs 95.990 for the MIPSS70-plus and DIPSS systems, respectively) . Conclusion: The MIPSS70-plus had significantly higher predictive power than the DIPSS.

Abstract
Background To explore the clinical features of the patients with BCR-ABL1-negative chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) in our hospital and to reveal the unique features of BCR-ABL1-negative MPNs patients in our center. Methods Retrospective analysis of routine karyotype analysis results, driver gene mutations and other related clinical parameters of 172 patients with newly diagnosed BCR-ABL1-negative MPNs who were admitted to our hospital between October 2013 and June 2018. Results (1) The rate of karyotypic abnormalities were 25, 6.3 and 2.9% in primary myelofibrosis (PMF), polycythemia vera (PV) and essential thrombocythemia (ET) patients, respectively. (2) The mutation rate of JAK2-V617F was 62.5%, and that of the CALR, MPL and EZH2 genes was 4.2% in PMF. The mutation rates of JAK2-V617F and JAK2-12exon were 91.3 and 1.3% in PV, respectively. The mutation rates of JAK2-V617F and CALR were 69.1 and 11.8% in ET, respectively. (3) Patients with JAK2-V617F mutation than with the wild-type gene were more often female in PMF (P = 0.027); had higher peripheral blood white blood cell (WBC) counts (P = 0.006), platelet (PLT) count (P = 0.001) and splenomegaly (P < 0.05) in PV; and had higher WBC (P = 0.001), hemoglobin concentrations (P = 0.001), lower PLT (P = 0.037), splenomegaly and endogenous coagulopathy (P < 0.05) in ET. (4) Among the PV and ET patients, those with thrombus were older than those in the nonthrombotic group. Conclusion PMF patients have more chromosomal abnormalities than PV and ET patients, and the effect of driver mutations on the clinical features of patients with MPNs differs among the three subtypes.

Abstract
In 2008, the concept of the monosomal karyotype (MK) in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients was introduced, defined by the presence of a chromosomal aberration pattern characterized by the presence of at least two autosomal monosomies or of one monosomy plus one or more structural aberrations (not including loss of a chromosome). We present a systematic review of the literature about the influence of the MK on the outcome of patients affected by myeloid malignancies (AML, myelodysplastic syndromes, and primary myelofibrosis). For this review, a comprehensive literature search using the term “monosomal karyotype” was performed, considering articles listed in MEDLINE. This analysis of the literature confirms the negative prognostic impact on survival of the MK in myeloid neoplasias. The detrimental effect of MK on AML patients’ outcome is independent of other variables, including adverse cytogenetic features, supporting the identification of this entity as a challenging subgroup of patients with distinct biologic and clinical features.
