Abstract
- We analyzed 140 patients with a median age of 51 years; 21% had WBC ≥ 100 × 10 <superscript>9</superscript> /L, and 52% had an NPM1 co-mutation. Until 2018, 101 patients received chemotherapy; thereafter, 39 received 3+7+midostaurin. The overall CR rate was 64%, higher in NPM1 mutant patients (73%). Univariate analysis showed that NPM1 mutation ( p = 0.032) and WBC < 100 × 10 <superscript>9</superscript> /L ( p = 0.013) positively influenced the response, with a trend for FLT3i administration ( p = 0.052). Multivariate analysis confirmed WBC count as an independent prognostic factor ( p = 0.017). In CR1, 41/90 patients underwent allogeneic and 18 autologous transplantation. The median EFS was 1.1 vs. 1.6 years in autografted and allografted patients, respectively ( p = 0.9). The one-year non-relapse mortality was 0.00% for autologous and 28% for allogeneic transplants ( p = 0.007); CIR at 1 and 3 years was higher in autologous transplants (39% vs. 15% and 57% vs. 21%, p = 0.004). The median survival was not reached in the FLT3i group. Overall, 69 patients received stem cell transplantation (18 autologous, 51 allogeneic). Post-transplant FLT3i was resumed in eight patients, all alive after a median of 65 months. Allogeneic transplantation is crucial in FLT3-mutated AML, but the next challenge will be to identify which patients can benefit from transplants in CR1 and in which to intensify post-transplant therapy.
