Monosomal karyotype, high prognostic risk score predicted transplantation failure

Monosomal karyotype and high prognostic risk according to the revised International Prognostic Scoring System are independent predictors of relapse and mortality in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or oligoblastic acute myeloid leukemia who undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, according to findings from the GITMO (Gruppo Italiano Trapianto di Midollo Osseo) registry.

Treatment failure after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation may be from transplant complications or relapse. To understand the predictors of failure, investigators studied outcomes in 519 patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or oligoblastic acute myeloid leukemia who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation between 2000 and 2011.

Those with monosomal karyotype had a 49% relapse rate and a 10% 5-year overall survival rate; both rates were significantly worse, compared with patients without monosomal karyotype (P less than .001 for each). Those considered high or very-high risk based on the International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R), had 39% and 23% 5-year overall survival, respectively, and 23% and 39% relapse rates, respectively (P less than .001 in all cases vs. patients not at high or very-high risk), Dr. Matteo G. Della Porta of Fondazione IRCCS Policlinico San Matteo, Pavia, Italy and colleagues reported on behalf of the GITMO.

Age of 50 years or older and high hematopoietic cell transplantation-comorbidity index scores were independent predictors of nonrelapse mortality (P = .02; P = .017, respectively), they found (Blood 2014 [doi:10.1182/blood-2013-12-542720]).

Accounting for various combinations of patients’ ages, IPSS-R category, monosomal karyotype, and high hematopoietic cell transplantation–comorbidity index, the 5-year probability of survival after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation ranged from 0 to 94%. The analyses performed reinforce the concept that allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation – the only potentially curative treatment for MDS – "offers optimal eradication of myelodysplastic hematopoiesis when the procedure is performed before MDS patients progress to advanced disease stages," the investigators concluded.
