Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
People living with HIV are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Therefore, prevention of CVD should be integrated in HIV care. Although several risk scores exist to predict the risk of developing CVD, none of this specifically addresses the fact of HIV. Previously, the reduced Data Collection on Adverse Events of Anti-HIV Drug score (D:A:D-R) model has been proposed to assess the CVD risk for HIV patients. However, this score has not been validated in an independent cohort, or compared to traditional CVD prediction models established in the non-HIV population.
Purpose
We aim to compare the predictive value of the CVD risk scores D:A:D-R, SCORE and Framingham CVD in a German HIV population and evaluate their CVD risk in a real world setting.
Methods
This is a prospective, cross-sectional, single center study. Patients with HIV and older than 30 years were enrolled between January 2018 and December 2019. Exclusion criteria were preexisting CVD and statin therapy. CVD risk estimates were calculated using the D:A:D-R, Framingham CVD (FRS), and SCORE models. Agreement between estimates was assessed using Cohen's kappa coefficient. The indication for statin therapy was calculated using the AHA and EACS guidelines.
Results
488 patients with HIV and a median age of 47.8 years were included. Median time since HIV diagnosis was 9.9 years. All, but one Patient were on ART for a median time of 5.9 years. 61% were female. Using the D:A:D-R score, the highest proportion of patients with high or very high risk for CVD were identified (17.8%). In comparison, using SCORE and FRS only 4.7% and 13.7% of patients were identified as high or very high risk, respectively. There was a poor agreement between D:A:D-R and SCORE (k=0.11), and D:A:D-R and FRS (k=0.33). Based on the calculated CVD risk using the three models, indication for primary statin medication varied between 34.8% to 92%.
Conclusion
Our data demonstrate that standard CVD risk scores underestimate the CVD risk in patients with HIV. Using SCORE and FRS, a high proportion of patients with HIV and at high risk for CVD would be underestimated and miss the indication for statin medication. Therefore, using scores including HIV specific parameters should be considered in this patient population.

Abstract
Darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) 800/150/200/10 mg is being investigated in two Phase III trials, AMBER (NCT02431247; treatment-naive adults) and EMERALD (NCT02269917; treatment-experienced, virologically suppressed adults). Week 48 AMBER and EMERALD resistance analyses are presented. Postbaseline samples for genotyping/phenotyping were analyzed from protocol-defined virologic failures (PDVFs) with viral load (VL) ≥400 copies/mL at failure/later time points. Post hoc analyses were deep sequencing in AMBER, and HIV-1 proviral DNA from baseline samples (VL <50 copies/mL) in EMERALD. Through week 48 across both studies, no darunavir, primary PI, or tenofovir resistance-associated mutations (RAMs) were observed in HIV-1 viruses of 1,125 participants receiving D/C/F/TAF or 629 receiving boosted darunavir plus emtricitabine/tenofovir-disoproxil-fumarate. In AMBER, the nucleos(t)ide analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor (N(t)RTI) RAM M184I/V was identified in HIV-1 of one participant during D/C/F/TAF treatment. M184V was detected pretreatment as a minority variant (9%). In EMERALD, in participants with prior VF and genoarchive data (N = 140; 98 D/C/F/TAF and 42 control), 4% had viruses with darunavir RAMs, 38% with emtricitabine RAMs, mainly at position 184 (41% not fully susceptible to emtricitabine), 4% with tenofovir RAMs, and 21% ≥ 3 thymidine analog-associated mutations (24% not fully susceptible to tenofovir) detected at screening. All achieved VL <50 copies/mL at week 48 or prior discontinuation. D/C/F/TAF has a high genetic barrier to resistance; no darunavir, primary PI, or tenofovir RAMs were observed through 48 weeks in AMBER and EMERALD. Only one postbaseline M184I/V RAM was observed in HIV-1 of an AMBER participant. In EMERALD, baseline archived RAMs to darunavir, emtricitabine, and tenofovir in participants with prior VF did not preclude virologic response.

Abstract
Alterations in TP53 have been described in many cancer types including hematological neoplasms. We aimed at comparing TP53 mutations (mut) and deletions (del) in a large cohort of patients with hematological malignancies (n=3307), including AML (n=858), MDS (n=943), ALL (n=358), CLL (n=1148). Overall, alterations in TP53 were detected in 332/3307 cases (10%). The highest frequency was observed in ALL (total: 19%; mut+del: 6%; mut only: 8%; del only: 5%) and AML (total: 13%; mut+del: 5%; mut only: 7%; del only: 1%), whereas TP53 alterations occurred less frequently in CLL (total: 8%) and MDS (total: 7%). TP53 mutations were significantly more frequent in patients ⩾60 vs <60 years in AML (9% vs 2%, P<0.001) and ALL (12% vs 6%, P<0.001). TP53mut+del had a significant negative impact on overall survival in all entities, whereas differences were observed regarding TP53mut only or TP53del only: TP53mut only impacted survival in AML (36 vs 9 months, P<0.001) and MDS (65 vs 19 months, P<0.001), TP53del only in CLL (not reached vs 64 months, P=0.008) and MDS (65 vs 24 months, P=0.011). As substantial differences between the entities are observed regarding correlation to age and survival, we suggest evaluation of both TP53 deletion and mutation status.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can be grouped into morphologically or genetically defined subtypes. Today, the AML phenotype-genotype associations, that is, FAB/WHO (French-American-British/World Health Organization) definitions and recurrent molecular mutations, are not fully understood. Therefore, we evaluated the impact of molecular mutations on the AML differentiation stage by molecular profiling of 4373 adult de novo AML patients in 7 cytomorphological subtypes. We investigated mutations in 20 genes, including myeloid transcription factors (CEBPA, RUNX1), tumor suppressors (TP53, WT1), DNA modifiers (DNMT3A, IDH1/2, TET2), chromatin modifiers (ASXL1, MLL), signal transduction genes (FLT3, KRAS, NRAS) and NPM1. The most frequently mutated genes per cytomorphological subtype were RUNX1 in M0 (43%), NPM1 in M1 (42%), DNMT3A in M2 (26%), NPM1 in M4 (57%), M5a (49%) and M5b (70%) and TP53 in M6 (36%). Although some gene mutations were frequent in several cytomorphological subtypes, a series of associations of co-occurring mutations with distinct phenotypes were identified for molecularly defined subcohorts. FLT3, NPM1 and WT1 mutations were associated with an immature phenotype in myeloblastic AML, whereas other combinations involving ASXL1, RUNX1, MLL-PTD, CEBPA or KRAS were more frequent in myeloblastic AML with maturation. Within the NPM1 mutated subcohort, ASXL1 mutations were significantly associated with a monoblastic differentiation and DNMT3A mutations with a monocytic phenotype.

Abstract
The International Council for Standardization in Hematology (ICSH) is a not-for-profit organization aimed at improving global quality and harmonization of analytical methods, and achieving reliable and reproducible results in diagnostic hematology. ICSH co-ordinates Working Groups of experts to examine laboratory methods and instruments for hematological analyses, and co-operates with different international organizations which have similar scientific goals. Among seven ongoing approved projects, three ICSH projects have been selected and will be presented in the ICSH session at the XXVIIth ISLH International Symposium on Technological Innovations in Laboratory Hematology in The Hague, on May 2014. The project on 'Guideline for flow cytometric evaluation of patients with suspected acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)' covers different aspects of the application of immunophenotyping by multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) in the diagnosis of AML and MDS including integration into multimodal diagnostic workflow, quality control, antibody selection, interpretation of findings, reporting, and personnel. Data from the pilot study of the project for 'International Standardization of Hematology Reporting Units' suggest that there is a wide variation in reporting units for the routine blood cell count and highlights the areas of nomenclature and units of measurement where standardization is necessary and feasible, such as units for cell counts, white cell differentials, and hemoglobin concentration. The project on 'Standardization of HbA2 measurement and its implications for clinical practice' starts from the observation that different instruments give different results for hemoglobin A2; it is aimed at producing recommendations as to how instrument manufacturers and laboratories should assess their equipment before using it to analyze patient samples. These projects are examples of how the ICSH represents a great opportunity for scientists involved in hematology laboratory to participate in a process of expert collaboration and discussion all around the world.

Abstract
Definite progress has been made in the exploration of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) by flow cytometry (FCM) since the publication of the World Health Organization 2008 classification of myeloid neoplasms. An international working party initiated within the European LeukemiaNet and extended to include members from Australia, Canada, Japan, Taiwan and the United States has, through several workshops, developed and subsequently published consensus recommendations. The latter deal with preanalytical precautions, and propose small and large panels, which allow evaluating immunophenotypic anomalies and calculating myelodysplasia scores. The current paper provides guidelines that strongly recommend the integration of FCM data with other diagnostic tools in the diagnostic work-up of MDS.

Abstract
High brain and acute leukemia, cytoplasmic (BAALC) expression defines an important risk factor in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). The prognostic value of BAALC expression in relation to other molecular prognosticators was analyzed in 326 CN-AML patients (<65 years). At diagnosis, high BAALC expression was associated with prognostically adverse mutations: FLT3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD) with an FLT3-ITD/FLT3 wild-type (wt) ratio of ⩾0.5 (P=0.001), partial tandem duplications within the MLL gene (MLL-PTD) (P=0.002), RUNX1 mutations (mut) (P<0.001) and WT1mut (P=0.001), while it was negatively associated with NPM1mut (P<0.001). However, high BAALC expression was also associated with prognostically favorable biallelic CEBPA (P=0.001). Survival analysis revealed an independent adverse prognostic impact of high BAALC expression on overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS), and also on OS when eliminating the effect of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) (OSTXcens). Furthermore, we analyzed BAALC expression in 416 diagnostic and follow-up samples of 66 patients. During follow-up, BAALC expression correlated with mutational load or expression levels, respectively, of other minimal residual disease markers: FLT3-ITD (r=0.650, P<0.001), MLL-PTD (r=0.728, P<0.001), NPM1mut (r=0.599, P<0.001) and RUNX1mut (r=0.889, P<0.001). Moreover, a reduction in BAALC expression after the second cycle of induction chemotherapy was associated with improved EFS. Thus, our data underline the utility of BAALC expression as a marker for prognostic risk stratification and detection of residual disease in CN-AML.

Abstract
t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is prognostically favorable; however, outcome is heterogeneous. We analyzed 139 patients with t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1-positive AML (de novo: n=117; therapy-related: n=22) to determine frequency and prognostic impact of additional genetic abnormalities. All patients were investigated for mutations (mut) in ASXL1, FLT3, KIT, NPM1, MLL, IDH1, IDH2, KRAS, NRAS, CBL and JAK2. Sixty-nine of 139 cases (49.6%) had 1 mutation in addition to RUNX1-RUNX1T1, and 23/139 (16.5%) had ⩾2 additional mutations. Most common were KITmut (23/139; 16.5%), NRASmut (18/139; 12.9%) and ASXL1mut (16/139; 11.5%). FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TKDmut, CBLmut, KRASmut, IDH2mut and JAK2mut were found in 2.9-5.0%. Additional chromosomal abnormalities (ACAs) were found in 97/139 (69.8%). Two-year overall survival (OS) was 73.4% in 111 intensively treated patients. KITD816mut negatively impacted on OS in de novo AML (2-year OS: 59.1% vs 82.0%, P=0.03), ASXL1mut on EFS (de novo AML: 20% vs 59.1%, P=0.011; total cohort: 28.6% vs 56.7%, P=0.021). Sex chromosome loss was favorable (2-year EFS: 66.9% vs 43.0%, P=0.031), whereas +8 was adverse on EFS (2-year EFS: 26.7% vs 55.9%, P=0.02). In conclusion, t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1-positive AML shows a high frequency of additional genetic alterations. Investigation for KITD816 and ASXL1mut combined with investigation of ACAs is recommended in t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1-positive AML because of the prognostic significance of these parameters.

Abstract
We analyzed a large cohort of 1160 untreated CLL patients for novel genetic markers (SF3B1, NOTCH1, FBXW7, MYD88, XPO1) in the context of molecular, immunophenotypic and cytogenetic data. NOTCH1 mutations (mut) (12.3%), SF3B1mut (9.0%) and TP53mut (7.1%) were more frequent than XPO1mut (3.4%), FBXW7mut (2.5%) and MYD88mut (1.5%). SF3B1mut, NOTCH1mut, TP53mut and XPO1mut were highly correlated to unmutated, whereas MYD88mut were associated with mutated IGHV status. Associations of diverse cytogenetic aberrations and mutations emerged: (1) SF3B1mut with del(11q), (2) NOTCH1mut and FBXW7mut with trisomy 12 and nearly exclusiveness of SF3B1mut, (3) MYD88mut with del(13q) sole and low frequencies of SF3B1mut, NOTCH1mut and FBXW7mut. In patients with normal karyotype only SF3B1mut were frequent, whereas NOTCH1mut rarely occurred. An adverse prognostic impact on time to treatment (TTT) and overall survival (OS) was observed for SF3B1mut, NOTCH1mut and TP53 disruption. In multivariate analyses SF3B1mut, IGHV mutational status and del(11q) were the only independent genetic markers for TTT, whereas for OS SF3B1mut, IGHV mutational status and TP53 disruption presented with significant impact. Finally, our data suggest that analysis of gene mutations refines the risk stratification of cytogenetic prognostic subgroups and confirms data of a recently proposed model integrating molecular and cytogenetic data.

Abstract
High-throughput DNA sequencing significantly contributed to diagnosis and prognostication in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). We determined the biological and prognostic significance of genetic aberrations in MDS. In total, 944 patients with various MDS subtypes were screened for known/putative mutations/deletions in 104 genes using targeted deep sequencing and array-based genomic hybridization. In total, 845/944 patients (89.5%) harbored at least one mutation (median, 3 per patient; range, 0-12). Forty-seven genes were significantly mutated with TET2, SF3B1, ASXL1, SRSF2, DNMT3A, and RUNX1 mutated in >10% of cases. Many mutations were associated with higher risk groups and/or blast elevation. Survival was investigated in 875 patients. By univariate analysis, 25/48 genes (resulting from 47 genes tested significantly plus PRPF8) affected survival (P<0.05). The status of 14 genes combined with conventional factors revealed a novel prognostic model ('Model-1') separating patients into four risk groups ('low', 'intermediate', 'high', 'very high risk') with 3-year survival of 95.2, 69.3, 32.8, and 5.3% (P<0.001). Subsequently, a 'gene-only model' ('Model-2') was constructed based on 14 genes also yielding four significant risk groups (P<0.001). Both models were reproducible in the validation cohort (n=175 patients; P<0.001 each). Thus, large-scale genetic and molecular profiling of multiple target genes is invaluable for subclassification and prognostication in MDS patients.

Abstract
The prognostic impact of mutations in the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (CEBPA) gene was evaluated in the context of concomitant molecular mutations and cytogenetic aberrations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). CEBPA was screened in a cohort of 2296 adult AML cases. Of 244 patients (10.6%) with CEBPA mutations, 140 cases (6.1%) were single-mutated (CEBPAsm) and 104 cases (4.5%) were double-mutated (CEBPAdm). Cytogenetic analysis revealed normal karyotype in 172/244 (70.5%) of CEBPAmut cases, whereas in 72/244 cases (29.5%) at least one cytogenetic aberration was detected. Concurrent molecular mutations were seen less frequently in CEBPAdm than in CEBPAsm AML cases (69.2% vs 88.6% P<0.001). In detail, the spectrum of concurrent mutations was different in both groups with the frequent occurrence of GATA1 and WT1 mutations in CEBPAdm patients. In contrast, FLT3-ITD, NPM1, ASXL1 and RUNX1 mutations were detected more frequently in CEBPAsm cases. Favorable outcome was restricted to CEBPAdm cases and remained an independent prognostic factor for a favorable outcome in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio: 0.438, P=0.020). Outcome in CEBPAsm cases strongly depended on concurrent FLT3-ITD. In conclusion, we propose that only CEBPAdm should be considered as an entity in the WHO classification of AML and should be clearly distinguished from CEBPAsm AML.

Abstract
Chronic myeloid malignancies are categorized to the three main categories myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) and MDS/MPN overlap. So far, no specific genetic alteration profiles have been identified in the MDS/MPN overlap category. Recent studies identified mutations in SET-binding protein 1 (SETBP1) as novel marker in myeloid malignancies, especially in atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML) and related diseases. We analyzed SETBP1 in 1 130 patients with MPN and MDS/MPN overlap and found mutation frequencies of 3.8% and 9.4%, respectively. In particular, there was a high frequency of SETBP1 mutation in aCML (19/60; 31.7%) and MDS/MPN unclassifiable (MDS/MPN, U; 20/240; 9.3%). SETBP1 mutated (SETBP1mut) patients showed significantly higher white blood cell counts and lower platelet counts and hemoglobin levels than SETBP1 wild-type patients. Cytomorphologic evaluation revealed a more dysplastic phenotype in SETBP1mut cases as compared with wild-type cases. We confirm a significant association of SETBP1mut with -7 and isochromosome i(17)(q10). Moreover, SETBP1mut were strongly associated with ASXL1 and CBL mutations (P<0.001 for both) and were mutually exclusive of JAK2 and TET2 mutations. In conclusion, SETBP1mut add an important new diagnostic marker for MDS/MPN and in particular for aCML.
