Purpose We assessed the prognostic impact of IDH1 R132 mutations and a known single
nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) located in the same exon of the IDH1 gene in patients with
cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) in the context of other prognostic
markers. Patients and Methods IDH1 exon four was directly sequenced in 275 CN-AML
patients from two subsequent AML multicenter treatment trials and 120 healthy volunteers.
Moreover, mutations in NPM1, FLT3, CEBPA, and WT1 were analyzed, and mRNA …
Purpose
We assessed the prognostic impact of IDH1 R132 mutations and a known single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) located in the same exon of the IDH1 gene in patients with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) in the context of other prognostic markers.
Patients and Methods
IDH1 exon four was directly sequenced in 275 CN-AML patients from two subsequent AML multicenter treatment trials and 120 healthy volunteers. Moreover, mutations in NPM1, FLT3, CEBPA, and WT1 were analyzed, and mRNA expression of IDH1 was quantified.
Results
IDH1 R132 mutations were found in 10.9% of CN-AML patients. IDH1 SNP rs11554137 was found in 12% of CN-AML patients and 11.7% of healthy volunteers. IDH1 R132 mutations had no impact on prognosis. In contrast, IDH1 SNP rs11554137 was an adverse prognostic factor for overall survival in univariate and multivariate analysis. Other significant factors were age, NPM1/FLT3 mutational status, WT1 SNP rs16754, and platelet count. The impact of IDH1 SNP rs11554137 was most pronounced in the NPM1/FLT3 high-risk patients (either NPM1 wild-type or FLT3–internal tandem duplication positive). Patients with IDH1 SNP rs11554137 had a higher expression of IDH1 mRNA than patients with two wild-type alleles.
Conclusion
IDH1 SNP rs11554137 but not IDH1 R132 mutations are associated with an inferior outcome in CN-AML.
