Article Synopsis
  • Several genomic subsets of mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients were studied to understand their impact on outcomes and the underlying biology, revealing that type D mutations correlated with poorer survival rates compared to other types.
  • In a cohort of over 4,000 patients, a study found that those with type A, B, and rare variants had more favorable overall survival rates, while type D patients exhibited significantly worse outcomes.
  • The research highlighted that codon optimality in type D mutations affects gene expression and translation efficiency, leading to poorer prognostic implications and indicating the need for a potential reclassification of type D patients to higher-risk groups.

We sought to define the cooccurring mutational profile of FLT3-ITD-positive (ITDpos) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in pediatric and young adult patients and to define the prognostic impact of cooperating mutations. We identified 464 patients with FLT3-ITD mutations treated on Children's Oncology Group trials with available sequencing and outcome data. Overall survival, event-free survival (EFS), and relapse risk were determined according to the presence of cooccurring risk stratifying mutations.
