NUDT15 c.415C>T Polymorphism Predicts 6-MP Induced Early Myelotoxicity in Patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Undergoing Maintenance Therapy.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Severe myelosuppression in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) undergoing 6-MP-based maintenance therapy is attributed to TPMT gene polymorphisms, which is rare in Asian populations. This study aims to evaluate the role of selected polymorphisms in NUDT15, ITPA, and MRP4 genes in addition to TPMT in predicting 6-MP intolerance during ALL maintenance therapy.

Patients and methods

We screened for the presence of NUDT15*3 (c.415 C>T, rs116855232); MRP4 c.2269 C>T (rs3765534), ITPA c.94 C>A (rs1127354) polymorphisms in addition to TPMT *2 (rs1800462), *3A (*3B and *3C; rs1800460 and rs1142345) in ALL patients with documented severe neutropenia (cohort-1; n=42). These polymorphisms were then screened in a prospective cohort of ALL patients (cohort-2; n=133) and compared with 6-MP dose reduction, early/late myelotoxicity.

Results

Nineteen (45%) patients in cohort-1 and 18 (14%) in cohort-2 had NUDT15 c.415 C>T variant while 4 (3%) patients in cohort-2 had TPMT*3C variant. Five (12%) in cohort-1 and 30 (24%) in cohort-2 had ITPA c.94 C>A variant while 9 (22%) and 15 (12%) had MRP4 c.2269 C>T variant in cohorts-1 and 2, respectively. All in cohort-1 and 36 (27%) in cohort-2 had severe myelotoxicity. Twenty-eight patients (66.6%) in cohort-1 and 40 (30%) patients in cohort-2 had significant 6-MP dose reduction. NUDT15 c.415 C>T variant explained severe myelotoxicity in 63% and 33% in cohort 1 and 2. TPMT*3C and ITPA c.94 C>A variants also explained myelotoxicity in cohort-2 (Median ANC: 376 vs 1014 mm³; p=0.04 and 776 vs 1023 mm³; p=0.04 respectively). NUDT15 c.415 C>T polymorphism explained significant myelotoxicity (507 vs 1298 mm³; p<0.0001) in the multivariate analysis as well (β=-0.314, p<0.0001).

Conclusion

NUDT15 c.415 C>T (15*3), TPMT*3C, as well as ITPA c.94 C>A and MRP4 c.2269 C>T polymorphisms explain hematotoxicities. Preemptive genotype-based (NUDT15*3, TPMT, ITPA c.94 C>A) 6-MP dosing could improve the outcome after maintenance therapy.

Project description:Objective: To investigate the effect of genetic polymorphisms of TPMT*2 rs1800462, TPMT*3B rs1800460, TPMT*3C rs1142345, and NUDT15 rs116855232 on the tolerance of 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) therapy in adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) . Methods: A total of 216 adult patients who were diagnosed with ALL and treated with cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, and 6-MP [complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) regimen] from September 2015 to December 2019 were included. Polymorphisms were detected by TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assay. Combined with clinical data, the influence of genetic polymorphism on the tolerance of 6-MP in the treatment of ALL was analyzed. Results: Among the 216 patients, 185 (85.65%) patients had B-ALL and 31 (14.35%) patients had T-ALL. 216 (100%) patients had CC genotype for both TPMT*2 rs1800462 and TPMT*3B rs1800460. The number of TT and TC genotypes for TPMT*3C rs1142345 was 209 (96.76%) and 7 (3.24%) , respectively. The allele frequency was 1.62% for TPMT*3C rs1142345. The number of CC, CT, and TT genotypes for NUDT15 rs116855232 was 166 (76.85%) , 48 (22.22%) , and 2 (0.93%) , respectively. The allele frequency was 12.04% for NUDT15 rs116855232. The TPMT*3C rs1142345 mutant group (TC+CC genotype) had less transfusion volume of packed red blood cell than the wild group (CC genotype) (P=0.036) , and the mutant group (TC+CC genotype) had a higher risk to develop hepatotoxicity (increased aspartate aminotransferase) than the wild group (CC genotype) (OR=9.559, 95% CI 1.135-80.475, P=0.038) . The durations of white blood cells (WBC) <1×10(9)/L and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) <0.5×10(9)/L in the NUDT15 rs116855232 mutation group (CT+TT genotype) were longer than that in the wild group (CC genotype) (P=0.005, P=0.007) , and the transfusion volume of apheresis-derived platelets in the mutant group (CT+TT type) was greater than that in the wild group (CC genotype) (P=0.014) . Conclusion: Genetic polymorphism of TMPT and NUDT15 has an effect on the tolerance of 6-MP in the treatment of adult ALL. Detecting genotypes of patients with ALL before treatment helps to optimize the dosage of 6-MP, which may help shorten the bone marrow suppression duration and reduce blood transfusion volume.
