Prognostic impact of IL7R mutations on acute myeloid leukemia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Interleukin-7 receptor (IL7R) mutation has been demonstrated to be an adverse prognostic factor in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients. However, the effects of the IL7R mutation on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have rarely been reported. Here, we investigated IL7R mutations and their effects on AML patients.

Methods

A total of 346 newly diagnosed AML patients from January 2017 to July 2020 at Nanfang Hospital were analyzed in this study. A genomic panel of 167 gene targets was detected by next-generation sequencing.

Results

Among 346 patients, 33 (9.5%) AML patients carried IL7R mutations. With a median follow-up of 50.7 months (95% confidence interval (CI) 17.3-62.2), the 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 51.5% (95%
