  1. “Can novel prognostic Can novel prognostic “ markers predict for success markers predict for success and guide therapy in AML? ?” ” and guide therapy in AML YES & YES! YES & YES! David Grimwade Dept. of Medical & Molecular Genetics, King’s College London School of Medicine

  2. The need for novel prognostic markers: The need for novel prognostic markers: Widely accepted pre- -treatment risk factors used to determine AML treatment risk factors used to determine AML Widely accepted pre therapy cannot reliably distinguish patients who will/will not relapse elapse therapy cannot reliably distinguish patients who will/will not r Grimwade et al , Blood 1998; 92: 2322-2333

  4. Limitations to using diagnostic karyotype karyotype Limitations to using diagnostic for treatment stratification for treatment stratification • Conflicting data regarding prognostic significance of some primary cytogenetic aberrations – Influences of sample size & treatment variation • Incorrect risk group assignment – Unsuccessful cytogenetic analysis – Cryptic rearrangements • Normal karyotype (~40% AML) molecularly heterogeneous

  5. Molecular advances over last decade have substantially Molecular advances over last decade have substantially improved outcome prediction & risk stratification improved outcome prediction & risk stratification • Favourable 24%: t(15;17)/ PML-RARA , t(8;21)/ AML1-ETO , inv(16)/ CBFB-MYH11 2000 • Intermediate 61%: Normal karyotype, other cytogenetic abonormalities • Adverse 15%: -5/del(5q), -7, abn(3q), complex 2010 38% 45% 17%

  7. Importance of molecular diagnostics to guide appropriate therapy • Case History – 75yr old female – WBC 15 x 10 9 /l – Suspected M3v – Randomised to AIDA in NCRI AML17 trial – Cytogenetics: Normal – FISH: No PML-RARA fusion signal – Diagnosis: RT-PCR: PML-RARA neg Diagnosis: NPM1 mutant AML

Importance of molecular diagnostics to guide therapy • Case History – 25yr old female – Presented – PE (23.12.09) – FBC: Hb 10g/dl, WBC 0.5, Plt 86 – Marrow – APL? – Cytogenetics: Normal – FISH: No PML-RARA fusion signal – PML antibody test +ve PML antibody test +ve – RT-PCR: PML-RARA +ve (reciprocal RARA-PML neg) RT-PCR: PML-RARA +ve (reciprocal RARA-PML neg) – Diagnosis: APL secondary to PML-RARA insertion Diagnosis: APL secondary to PML-RARA insertion  ATRA + Idarubicin

  15. In favour of the motion: In favour of the motion: • Molecular diagnostics identifies disease mutations conferring important independent prognostic information • Molecular diagnostics are essential to distinguish a sizeable group of patients with favourable prognosis who are unlikely to benefit from routine allografting in 1 st CR • MRD detection can identify patients destined to fail frontline therapy, who may benefit from additional therapy • Embracing new technologies to refine diagnosis and track treatment response is critical for the development of more personalized approaches to AML therapy
