摘要:
目的 探索伴有FMS样酪氨酸激酶3-内部串联重复(fms-like tyrosine kinase 3, FLT3-ITD)突变的急性髓系白血病(AML)患者的免疫表型及临床特征。 方法 收集2016年12月—2018年12月蚌埠医学院第一附属医院103例初诊AML患者(除外M3型),其中FLT3-ITD+患者24例(阳性组),FLT3-ITD-患者79例(阴性组)。对2组患者的临床特征和免疫表型进行回顾性研究,统计2组患者治疗总反应率(overall reaction,OR)、无进展生存时间(progression free survival,PFS)与总生存时间(overall survival, OS)。 结果 阳性组患者CD33、CD7、CD56及CD38抗原表达率较阴性组明显升高(均P < 0.05),而CD13、CD34表达率则显著降低(均P < 0.05);阳性组患者外周血白细胞计数、血红蛋白计数、骨髓原始细胞比例、合并NPM1(Nucleophosmin)突变率明显高于阴性组(均P < 0.05);阴性组患者治疗总反应率为78.48%,明显优于阳性组的33.33%,差异有统计学意义(P < 0.001)。阳性组患者中位OS为9.5个月,中位PFS为9个月;阴性组患者中位OS为17个月,中位PFS为16个月,阴性组较阳性组明显延长(P < 0.05)。 结论 FLT3-ITD阳性AML患者白血病细胞抗原表达紊乱,外周血白细胞、血红蛋白、骨髓原始细胞高,易合并NPM1突变且治疗总反应率低,PFS和OS明显缩短,治疗效果差,预后不良。 -

Abstract:Objective To explore the immunophenotype and clinical characteristics of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with fms-like tyrosine kinase 3-internal tandem replication (FLT3-ITD) mutation. Methods A total of 103 patients with AML (excluding the M3 type), including 24 patients with FLT3-ITD+ (positive group) and 79 patients with FLT3-ITD- (negative group), who were initially diagnosed in the haematology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from December 2016 to December 2018 were enrolled in this study. The clinical haematological characteristics and immunophenotypes of the two groups were retrospectively studied. The patients in both groups were followed up, and the overall reaction rate (OR), progress-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated. Results The expression rates of CD33, CD7, CD56 and CD38 in the FLT3-ITD+group were significantly higher than those in the FLT3-ITD- group (all P < 0.05). By contrast, the expression rates of CD13 and CD34 were low (all P < 0.05). White blood cell count, haemoglobin count, bone marrow leukaemia cells and mutation rate of combined NPM1 in the FLT3-ITD+ group were higher than those in the FLT3-ITD- group (all P < 0.05). after the treatment the Objective response rate in the FLT3-ITD- group (78.5%) was significantly higher than that in the FLT3-ITD+ group (33.3%), and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The median OS and PFS in the FLT3-ITD+ group were 9.5 and 9 months, respectively, and those in the FLT3-ITD- group were 17 and 16 months, respectively. The OS and PFS of the FLT3-ITD- group were longer than those of the FLT3-ITD+ group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Patients with AML with FLT3-ITD+ have abnormal expression of leukaemia cell antigen, high peripheral blood leukocytes, abundant haemoglobin and bone marrow primordial cells, are prone to NPM1 mutation, have shortened PFS, OS and reduced the response rate. Hence, the treatment effect and prognosis of these patients are poor. -
