Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical outcomes and characteristics of TP53-mutated primary myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). METHODS A total of 74 de novo primary MDS patients who were diagnosed and treated in the Department of Hematology of our hospital from January 2018 and September 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. All patients had evaluable blood cell counts, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), bone marrow (BM) morphology, biopsy, and MDS-related 20-gene mutations sequencing. In addition, 69 of 74 patients had complete cytogenetic analysis through conventional chromosome analysis and fluorescence in-situ hybridization. RESULTS Patients were divided into two cohorts, the TP53-mutated type (TP53Mut) group (n = 19) and TP53 wild type (TP53WT) group (n = 55). Compared with the TP53WT group, patients in the TP53Mut group had higher ratios of cytogenetic abnormalities (82.4% vs. 30.8%, P < 0.001), with 5q- karyotype (64.70% vs. 38.5%, P < 0.001), complex karyotype(CK) (64.70% vs. 38.5%, P < 0.001), HR-MDS (94.7% vs. 61.8%, P = 0.008), and acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) transformation (26.3% vs. 12.7%, P < 0.001). Interestingly, patients in the TP53Mut group had lower median MCV than the TP53WT group (94.40 fl vs. 101.90 fl, P = 0.008). Furthermore, MCV = 100 fl as cutoff, and found that MCV ≤ 100 fl was more common in the TP53Mut group (73.7% vs. 38.2%, P < 0.001). After 1-4 courses of HMA ± chemotherapy, the overall response rate of the TP53Mut group was higher than the TP53WT group (83.3% vs. 71.4%, P = 0.012). With the median follow-up 12.0 months (1-46 months), the results show that the median OS and leukemia-free survival (LFS) of TP53Mut group was significantly shorter than the TP53WT group (P = 0.0018; P = 0.0310). Results of multivariate Cox proportional hazard analyses show TP53 mutation was an independent prognostic factor for the OS (HR 2.724, 95%CI 1.099-6.750, P = 0.030). CONCLUSION TP53-mutated primary MDS patients were associated with higher frequency of cytogenetic abnormalities, with 5q- karyotype, CK, AML transformation, higher risk IPSS-R, lower MCV and sensitive to HMA treatment, but worse survival.

Abstract
TP53 gene mutations are common in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Previous studies have reported their detrimental effects on patient survival. However, current treatment strategies mainly based on hypomethylating agent therapy (HMA) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) still leave a lot to be desired. And there is also a lack of studies on large sample with a view to the refinement of specific characteristics and disease progression. So we performed a meta-analysis including 20 studies compromising 5067 patients to assess the prognostic impact and clinical characteristics of TP53 mutations in MDS patients. The overall hazard ratio for overall survival (OS) was 2.14 (95% confidence interval 1.94-2.37, P < .00001) compared with patients with MDS without TP53 mutations. Lower progression-free survival and leukemia-free survival were associated with TP53 mutations. Subgroup analysis revealed that TP53 mutations were significantly associated with high levels of blast cells and karyotypic aberrations. And among Asian population, the adverse impact on OS of TP53 mutations seemed worse than those in Western countries. (HR 2.87 vs. 2.02, P = .01). In addition, TP53 mutations had no effect on response to HMA therapy, and HSCT improved OS in patients carrying TP53 mutations.

Eur J Haematol 2020; 105:524-539. [PMID: 32621334 DOI: 10.1111/ejh.13483] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2020] [Revised: 06/28/2020] [Accepted: 06/29/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Tumor protein p53 (TP53) is frequently expressed in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Studies have already reported the poor prognostic impact of TP53 gene mutations in MDS patients. However, parts of this subgroup of patients with low-risk MDS still have relatively better survival and longer remission times. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the prognostic difference intra-gene of variant allele frequency (VAF). The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and event-free survival (EFS) was selected as the secondary endpoint. We extracted the hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for OS and EFS from univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models. A total of 4003 MDS patients and 1278 TP53-mutated patients from 13 cohorts of 11 studies up to February 24, 2020, were included in our meta-analysis. Pooled HRs suggested that a high mutant VAF had an adverse impact on OS (HR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.48-3.01, P < .0001) but no impact on EFS (HR = 15.57, 95% CI: 0.75-324.44, P = .003) in MDS patients. Twenty percent is a proper threshold to set (HR = 2.02, 95% CI: 1.31-3.13, P = .001) and is a rough line between high clone burden and low clone burden, while 40% is an exact cutoff point (HR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.26-3.55, P < .0001) to guide diagnosis and treatment. Beyond the traditional binary classification of gene mutation, we aimed to find a way to divide mutant molecular markers more specifically by VAF to provide clinical therapeutic values. Our meta-analysis indicates that a high VAF is an independent, adverse prognostic factor for OS in TP53 mutant MDS patients. Patients with mediate/low-frequency parts who could be treated like wide-type patients have relatively better survival and may choose allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation as conditions permitting. Further prospective studies are needed in the future, and a large subgroup analysis of the same cutoff point subgroups is needed to obtain a more reliable basis for the impact of other mutant gene VAFs on the prognosis of MDS.

Abstract
TP53 dysregulation plays a pivotal role in the molecular pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), identifying a subgroup of patients with peculiar features. In this review we report the recent biological and clinical findings of TP53-mutated MDS, focusing on the molecular pathways activation and on its impact on the cellular physiology. In MDS, TP53 mutational status is deeply associated with del(5q) syndrome and its dysregulation impacts on cell cycle, DNA repair and apoptosis inducing chromosomal instability and the clonal evolution of disease. TP53 defects influence adversely the MDS clinical outcome and the treatment response rate, thus new therapeutic approaches are being developed for these patients. TP53 allelic state characterization and the mutational burden evaluation can therefore predict prognosis and identify the subgroup of patients eligible for targeted therapy. For these reasons, in the era of precision medicine, the MDS diagnostic workup cannot do without the complete assessment of TP53 mutational profile.
