Prognostic impact of mutated gene in AML.

Gene Prognostic impact References
NPMI Favorable prognosis with a reduced risk of relapse Döhner et al., 2005; Papaemmanuil et al., 2016
DNMT3A Unfavorable outcomes and higher relapse rates Worse prognosis was observed in CN-AML patients Marková et al., 2012; Patel et al., 2012; Shivarov et al., 2013; Tie et al., 2014
IDH1 and IDH2 Unfavorable outcomes in patients with IDH1 mutations compared to with IDH2 mutations Shorter relapse free survival in patients with double positive IDH and IDH and NPM1 mutations, but FLT3-ITD-negative Abbas et al., 2010; Paschka et al., 2010; Patel et al., 2012; Aref et al., 2015
TET2 The prognostic effect remains controversial. Gaidzik et al., 2012; Patel et al., 2012; Ahn et al., 2015; Kutny et al., 2015
FLT3-ITD Poor outcomes and high relapse rate Kottaridis et al., 2002; Shih et al., 2002; Cloos et al., 2006; Alvarado et al., 2014
FLT3-TKD Prognosis value remains unclear and contradicting Martelli et al., 2013; Ofran and Rowe, 2013
NRAS No difference outcomes in patients with mutant and wild-type NRAS Bowen et al., 2005; Bacher et al., 2006; Berman et al., 2011
KIT Conferred increased relapse risk in adult CBF-AML with t(8;21) but no significant impact on childhood CBF-AML patients Pollard et al., 2010; Chen et al., 2016
CEBPA Good prognosis marker with significant longer relapse free overall survival especially in CN-AML Prolonged survival after relapse if patients acquired CEBPA mutation during relapse Renneville et al., 2009a; Pastore et al., 2014; Li et al., 2015; Tawana et al., 2015
RUNX1 Unfavorable outcome, predictive of chemotherapy resistance and increased relapse rate Gaidzik et al., 2011; Grossmann et al., 2012; Ismael et al., 2014
ASXL1 and ASXL2 Predictive of inferior prognosis specifically to male adults with MDS, age and positive RUNX1 mutations Prognostic implication remains inconclusive in childhood AML Schnittger et al., 2012; Micol et al., 2014; Döhner et al., 2015; Shiba et al., 2016
BCOR Associated with poorer prognosis in adult AML Similar 3-year overall survival in childhood AML with or without BCOR mutation Grossmann et al., 2011; Shiba et al., 2016
KMT2A/MLL-PTD Conferred an inferior prognosis, especially those with CN-AML Worst prognosis in patients with double positive IDH and DNMT3A mutations Döhner et al., 2002; Grossmann et al., 2012; Kao et al., 2015
EZH2 Poor prognosis and inferior survival Kawahara et al., 2012; Larsson et al., 2014
SMC3, RAD21 and STAG2 No association between the mutations and overall survival rate Shiba et al., 2016
TP53 Associated with inferior prognosis and higher relapse risk, the worst prognosis in AML Grossmann et al., 2012; Hou et al., 2015
WT1 Adverse outcomes in both childhood and adult AML, low overall survival rate and high relapse rate Hollink et al., 2009; Renneville et al., 2009b; Hou et al., 2010
PHF6 Poor outcomes in intermediate risk group AML patients Predictive biomarker for relapse SMC3relapse Ding et al., 2012; Patel et al., 2012
