Abstract
We aim to identify predictors of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) in patients with breast cancer (BC) and cytopenias to determine the timing of bone marrow biopsy (BMBx). Patients with BC and cytopenias who were referred for BMBx between 2002-2018 were identified using the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center institutional database. Characteristics associated with the risk of t-MN were evaluated by multivariable logistic regression and included in a predictive model. The average area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was estimated by 5-fold cross-validation. Of the 206 BC patients who underwent BMBx included in our study, 107 had t-MN. By multivariable analysis, white blood cell count 4-11 K/mcL, absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥1.5 K/mcL, hemoglobin ≥12.2 g/dL, red cell distribution width 11.5-14.5%, the presence of bone metastasis and a time from BC diagnosis to BMBx <15 months significantly decreased the likelihood of t-MN. The average AUC was 0.88. We stratified our cohort by bone metastasis and by findings on peripheral smear. In both the subset without bone metastasis (n=159) and in the cohort with no blasts or dysplastic cells on peripheral smear (n=96) our variables had similar effects on the risk of t-MN. Among the 47 patients with bone metastasis, an ANC ≥1.5 K/mcL was the only variable associated with a decreased risk of t-MN. Our findings show that in patients with BC and unexplained cytopenias, clinical and laboratory parameters can predict t-MN and assist clinicians in determining the timing of a BMBx.

Allogeneic Transplantation to Treat Therapy-Related Myelodysplastic Syndrome and Acute Myelogenous Leukemia in Adults. Transplant Cell Ther 2021; 27:923.e1-923.e12. [PMID: 34428556 PMCID: PMC9064046 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2021.08.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Revised: 08/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/10/2021] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Patients who develop therapy-related myeloid neoplasm, either myelodysplastic syndrome (t-MDS) or acute myelogenous leukemia (t-AML), have a poor prognosis. An earlier Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) analysis of 868 allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantations (allo-HCTs) performed between 1990 and 2004 showed a 5-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) of 22% and 21%, respectively. Modern supportive care, graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis, and reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens have led to improved outcomes. Therefore, the CIBMTR analyzed 1531 allo-HCTs performed in adults with t-MDS (n = 759) or t-AML (n = 772) between and 2000 and 2014. The median age was 59 years (range, 18 to 74 years) for the patients with t-MDS and 52 years (range, 18 to 77 years) for those with t-AML. Twenty-four percent of patients with t-MDS and 11% of those with t-AML had undergone a previous autologous (auto-) HCT. A myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimen was used in 49% of patients with t-MDS and 61% of patients with t-AML. Nonrelapse mortality at 5 years was 34% (95% confidence interval [CI], 30% to 37%) for patients with t-MDS and 34% (95% CI, 30% to 37%) for those with t-AML. Relapse rates at 5 years in the 2 groups were 46% (95% CI, 43% to 50%) and 43% (95% CI, 40% to 47%). Five-year OS and DFS were 27% (95% CI, 23% to 31%) and 19% (95% CI, 16% to 23%), respectively, for patients with t-MDS and 25% (95% CI, 22% to 28%) and 23% (95% CI, 20% to 26%), respectively, for those with t-AML. In multivariate analysis, OS and DFS were significantly better in young patients with low-risk t-MDS and those with t-AML undergoing HCT with MAC while in first complete remission, but worse for those with previous auto-HCT, higher-risk cytogenetics or Revised International Prognostic Scoring System score, and a partially matched unrelated donor. Relapse remains the major cause of treatment failure, with little improvement seen over the past 2 decades. These data mandate caution when recommending allo-HCT in these conditions and indicate the need for more effective antineoplastic approaches before and after allo-HCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome (t-MDS) is a serious clinical disease occurring after breast cancer treatment. METHODS A cohort of 11,684 invasive breast cancer (BC) patients from 1990-2014 were followed for incidence of t-MDS through institutional and the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) Program registries. t-MDS cases were identified using ICD-O SEER registry codes, pathology and chart reports. Treatment, cytogenetics, and time from BC diagnosis to t-MDS and t-MDS diagnosis to last follow up or death were obtained. Incidence rate ratios were calculated using SEER national incidence rates for comparison. RESULTS 27 cases of t-MDS post BC treatment were confirmed. 96% of cases were breast cancer stage I-II at diagnosis. All patients had received radiation treatment and 59% received adjuvant chemotherapy. Two patients were alive with no evidence of disease after treatment with stem cell transplantation (age 33 and 46). t-MDS incidence was 30 times the expected population rate among patients <55 years (RR 31.8, 95% CI 15.0, 60.8) with shorter time from t-MDS diagnosis to death (median survival time: <55: 8 months, 55-74: 26 months, 75+: 23 months). CONCLUSION We found elevated t-MDS risk especially among younger BC patients with stem cell transplantation the only observed curative treatment.

Long-term follow-up of therapy-related myelodysplasia and AML patients treated with allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Bone Marrow Transplant 2016; 51:771-7. [PMID: 26752137 DOI: 10.1038/bmt.2015.338] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2015] [Revised: 11/11/2015] [Accepted: 12/01/2015] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
The outcome of patients with therapy-related myelodysplasia (t-MDS) or t-AML is very poor. The only curative treatment option implements allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (aHCT); however, long-term follow-up data beyond 5 years are scarce. Here we report on a cohort of 79 consecutive patients with a median age of 58 years (range (r): 20-76) at transplantation and a median follow-up of 7.5 years (r: 0.07-19.0). Only 19 (24.1%) patients were in CR before aHCT. Non-relapse mortality and relapse rates were 23% (95% confidence interval, 15-35%) and 42% (32-55%) at 5 years, and 32% (22-46%) and 44% (34-57%) at 10 years, respectively. Disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 35% (24-46%) and 38% (27-49%) at 5 years, and 24% (14-36%) and 24% (13-36%) at 10 years, respectively. Although cytogenetic aberrations were associated with shorter DFS and higher relapse risk, persistent disease at the time of transplantation, an unrelated donor and patient age were not associated with shorter OS. In conclusion, long-term survival beyond 10 years of t-MDS/t-AML patients after aHCT is possible, even for refractory patients. Therefore, early donor search and rapid transplantation are warranted, also to decrease the risk of disease-related deterioration of patients' performance status.
