Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (CEBPA) mutations.Methods 208 patients with de novo AML were retrospectively analyzed with regard to frequency of CEBPA mutations,clinical characteristics,therapeutic response and long-term outcome.Results CEBPA mutations were detected in 37 patients (17.8 %),with 29 cases of double mutations and 8 cases of single mutation.In 117 cases of patients with normal karyotype,28 cases (23.9 %) were detected with CEBPA mutations.As compared with no CEBPA mutation,the following characteristics were observed in patients with CEBPA double mutations.Presented with younger age at diagnosis,82.8 % (24/29) of the patients were M1 and M2.Presented with higher peripheral white blood cell count,higher hemoglob in and low platelet count.And increases of CD7,CD34 and HLA-DR expression.Compared with those without mutation,patients with biCEBPA mutations had better overall survival (OS) (2-years OS:100 % vs 75.1%,P =0.045).Conclusion BiCEBPA mutation is one of the favorable prognosis indicators.
