Abstract
Background Limited data were available to understand the significance of ferroptosis in leukemia prognosis, regardless of the genomic background. Methods RNA-seq data from 151 AML patients were analyzed from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, along with 70 healthy samples from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database. Ferroptosis-related genes (FRGs) features were constructed by multivariate COX regression analysis and risk scores were calculated for each sample and a novel prediction model was identified. The validation was carried out using data from 35 AML patients and 13 healthy controls in our cohort. Drug sensitivity analysis was conducted on various chemotherapeutic drugs. Results A signature of 10 FRGs was identified, as prognostic predictors for AML, and the risk scores were calculated to constructed the prognostic features of FRGs. Significantly lower overall survival was observed in the high-risk group. The predictive ability of these features for AML prognosis was confirmed using Cox regression analysis, ROC curves, and DCA. The prediction model performed well in our clinical practices, and had its potential superiority when comparing to classical NCCN risk stratification. Multiple chemotherapy drugs, including paclitaxel, dactinomycin, cisplatin, etc. had a lower IC50 in FRGs high-risk group than low-risk group. Conclusion The AML prognosis model based on FRGs accurately predicts AML prognosis and drug sensitivity, and the drugs identified worthy further investigation.

Persistent or New Cytopenias Predict Relapse Better than Routine Bone Marrow Aspirate Evaluations After Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for Acute Leukemia or Myelodysplastic Syndrome in Children and Young Adult Patients. Transplant Cell Ther 2024; 30:692.e1-692.e12. [PMID: 38643958 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2024.04.012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/15/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024]
Abstract
The clinical value of serial routine bone marrow aspirates (rBMAs) in the first year after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) to detect or predict relapse of acute leukemia (AL) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in pediatric and young adult patients is unclear. The purpose of this analysis was to determine if assessment of minimal residual disease (MRD) by multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC, MFC-MRD) or donor chimerism (DC) in rBMAs or serial complete blood counts (CBCs) done in the year after alloHCT predicted relapse of AL or MDS in pediatric and young adult patients. We completed a retrospective analysis of patients with AL or MDS who had rBMAs performed after alloHCT between January 2012 and June 2018. Bone marrow (BM) was evaluated at approximately 3, 6, and 12 months for disease recurrence by morphology, MFC-MRD, and percent DC by short tandem repeat molecular testing. CBCs were performed at every clinic visit. The main outcome of interest was an assessment of whether MFC-MRD or DC in rBMAs or serial CBCs done in the year after alloHCT predicted relapse in AL or MDS pediatric and young adult patients. A total of 121 recipients with a median age of 13 years (range 1 to 32) were included: 108 with AL and, 13 with MDS. A total of 423 rBMAs (median 3; 0 to 13) were performed. Relapse at 2 years was 23% (95% CI: 16% to 31%) and at 5 years 25% (95% CI: 18% to 33%). One hundred fifty-four of 157 (98%) rBMAs evaluated for MRD by MFC were negative and did not preclude subsequent relapse. Additionally, low DC (<95%) did not predict relapse and high DC (≥95%) did not preclude relapse. For patients alive without relapse at 1 year, BM DC (P = .74) and peripheral T-cell DC (P = .93) did not predict relapse. Six patients with low-level T-cell and/or BM DC had a total of 8 to 20 BM evaluations, none of these patients relapsed. However, CBC results were informative for relapse; 28 of 31 (90%) relapse patients presented with an abnormal CBC with peripheral blood (PB) blasts (16 patients), cytopenias (9 patients), or extramedullary disease (EMD, 3 patients). Two patients with BM blasts >5% on rBMA had circulating blasts within 5 weeks of rBMA. Neutropenia (ANC <1.5 K/mcl) at 1 year was predictive of relapse (P = .01). Neutropenia and thrombocytopenia (<160 K/mcl) were predictive of disease-free survival (DFS) with inferior DFS for ANC <1.5 K/mcl, P = .001, or platelet count <160 K/mcl (P = .04). These results demonstrate rBMAs after alloHCT assessed for MRD by MFC and/or for level of DC are poor predictors for relapse in pediatric and young adult patients with AL or MDS. Relapse in these patients presents with PB blasts, cytopenias, or EMD. ANC and platelet count at 1-year were highly predictive for DFS.

Abstract
Background Despite improved outcomes for pediatric patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the prognosis for relapse remains poor. This study aimed to examine the clinical factors associated with prognosis in relapsed pediatric AML. Methods We conducted a chart review of pediatric patients with AML who experienced their first relapse and received treatment at our institution between 2008 and 2019. Risk stratification at diagnosis was performed according to the definition suggested by the ongoing AML 2012 study in Korea, and the clinical factors associated with prognosis were analyzed. Results A total of 27 pediatric patients with relapsed AML were identified. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) rates were 32.9% and 32.9%, respectively. A duration ≥12 months from diagnosis to relapse had a favorable impact on survival outcomes (5-yr OS, 64.0% vs. 15.7%; P=0.007). Patients who achieved complete remission (CR) after 1 course of chemotherapy following relapse (N=15) had a 5-year OS rate of 59.3%, while none of the other patients survived (P<0.0001). Additionally, the 5-year OS differed significantly based on the risk group at initial diagnosis (62.3% [favorable and intermediate prognosis groups, N=11] vs. 13.3% [poor prognosis group, N=15]; P=0.014). Conclusion Patients with a longer duration of CR before relapse, who achieved CR following 1 course of reinduction chemotherapy, and were in the favorable or intermediate prognosis group at diagnosis demonstrated better outcomes. These findings emphasize the importance of tailoring treatment strategies based on the expected prognosis at relapse in pediatric patients with AML.

Alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma has superior response rates to vinorelbine compared to embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in patients with relapsed/refractory disease: A meta-analysis. Cancer Med 2023; 12:10222-10229. [PMID: 37016270 PMCID: PMC10225185 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.5749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 01/19/2023] [Accepted: 02/16/2023] [Indexed: 04/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) have inferior outcomes compared to patients with embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) and more effective chemotherapy options are needed for these patients. Vinorelbine is a semisynthetic vinca alkaloid that has clinical activity in relapsed rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) when used alone or in combination with cyclophosphamide. AIMS The goal of our study was to evaluate whether RMS histology subtype influences response rate to vinorelbine alone or in combination. MATERIALS & METHODS Five Phase 2 trials that enrolled RMS patients were included in the meta-analysis. Two studies evaluated vinorelbine alone, two studies evaluated vinorelbine in combination with low dose oral cyclophosphamide, and one study evaluated vinorelbine and intravenous cyclophosphamide in combination with temsirolimus or bevacizumab. All RMS patients had relapsed or refractory disease and had received at least one prior therapy. Response was reported according to RECIST1.1 and was defined as a complete or partial response. Response data was obtained from published results or from trial principal investigator. RMS NOS patients were grouped with ERMS patients for this analysis. Summary estimates comparing differences between ARMS and ERMS response rates were generated using a random-effects model to account for heterogeneity among the studies. RESULTS One hundred fifty-six enrolled patients evaluable for response were included in the meta-analysis, 85 ARMS, 64 ERMS and 7 RMS-NOS. The combined effect generated from the random-effects model demonstrated a 41% increase (p = 0.001, 95% CI; 0.21-0.60) in response to vinorelbine as a single agent or in combination in patients with ARMS compared to patients with ERMS. There was no significant difference in the rate of progressive disease between patients with ARMS compared to ERMS (p = 0.1, 95%CI; -0.26-0.02). DISCUSSION Vinorelbine is an active agent for the treatment of relapsed or refractory RMS and a meta-analysis of Phase 2 studies shows that radiographic responses in patients with ARMS were significantly higher than ERMS or RMS-NOS. CONCLUSION These data support further investigation of vinorelbine in newly diagnosed patients with RMS particularly those with alveolar histology.
