Clinical Characteristics and Prognosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patients with GATA2 Gene Mutation
Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics,coexisting gene mutations and prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients with GATA2 gene mutation.Methods:The clinical data of 370 newly diagnosed AML patients treated in our hospital from January 2008 to January 2021 was analyzed retrospectively,the next-generation sequencing technology was used to detect the mutated genes in those patients.The clinical characteristics of AML patients with GATA2 mutations,the co-mutated genes of GATA2 mutations,and the effect of GATA2 mutation on prognosis were analyzed.Results:A total of 23 patients(6.2％)with GATA2 mutation was detected in 370 AML patients.Compared with GATA2 non-mutation group,patients in GATA2 mutation group were mostly normal karyotypes(P=0.037)and in low-risk cytogenetic stratification(P=0.028).The incidence of CEBPAdm and NRAS in GATA2 mutation group was significantly higher than that in GATA2 non-mutation group(P=0.010,P=0.009).There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of sex,age,white blood cell count(WBC),platelet count,hemoglobin,bone marrow(BM)blast,induction chemotherapy regimen and CR rate(P＞0.05).Among the 23 patients with GATA2 mutation,the most common co-mutated genes were CEBPAdm,NRAS(both 39.1％),NPM1,FLT3,TET2,WT1(all 17.4％),ASXL1 and IDH1(both 13.0％).Survival analysis showed that there was no statistical difference in 5-year overall survival(OS)and leukemia-free survival(LFS)rates between patients with and without GATA2 mutations in whole cohort(n=370)(P=0.306,P=0.308).Among 306 patients without CEBPAdm,the 5-year OS and LFS rates in GATA2 mutation group showed an increasing trend compared with GATA2 non-mutation group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.092,P=0.056).Among 64 patients with CEBPAdm,there was no statistically significant difference in 5-year OS rate between the GATA2 mutation group and the GATA2 non-mutation group(P=0.104),but the 5-year LFS rate of the GATA2 mutation group was significantly decreased(P=0.047).Among the 23 patients with GATA2 mutation,16 cases received the"3+7"induction regimen,of which 12 cases received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT);7 cases received the"DCAG"induction regimen,of which 3 cases received allo-HSCT.The CR rate was not statistically different between the"3+7"regimen group and the"DCAG"regimen group(P=1.000).The 5-year OS rate and LFS rate in the transplantation group were significantly higher than the chemotherapy group(P=0.021,P=0.020).Conclusion:GATA2 mutation is more common in AML patients with normal karyotype and low-risk cytogenetic stratification,and it is significantly associated with CEBPAdm and NRAS co-mutations.The prognostic significance of GATA2 is influenced by CEBPAdm.The choice of"3+7"or"DCAG"induction regimen in patients with GATA2 mutation does not affect their CR rate,while the choice of allo-HSCT can significantly improved the prognosis compared with chemotherapy only.
