Sanam Loghavi: Relapse Patterns in NPM1-Mutated AML After Venetoclax-Based Therapy
Sanam Loghavi, Associate Professor of Pathology at MD Anderson Cancer Center, Medical Director of ECOG-ACRIN Leukemia Bank, and Editor in Chief of Image Bank at the American Society of Hematology, shared a post on X about a paper she co-authored with colleagues published in the American Journal of Hematology:
“We report the incidence of NPM1-wildtype relapses in patients treated with VEN-based frontline treatment in AML.
Overall, the absolute number of relapses in NPM1 AML after VEN is low
The fraction of NPM1-wildtype relapses is high with the high intensity of chemo backbone added to VEN.
NPM1 wildtype relapses occur later and often have MR mutations. And ALL (8/8) had a different flow immunophenotype compared to the original AML.
We proposed that these were ‘new’ AMLs, that arose from a common preleukemic (CH) precursor, but that the original NPM1-mutated AML was ‘cured’.”
