Abstract Abstract 4858 Objectives: In the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway signaling pathway, the STAT3 is one of the most prominent predictable factors for cancer and leukemia. STAT3 activation might promote cellular transformation and therefore have an important role in human tumors. This study was aimed to investigate the relationship between the STAT3 polymorphisms and the treatment responses of AML in the Chinese population. Methods: We tested three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with 130 Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood and assayed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF). Results: The results showed there were strong relationship between unfavorable cytogenetic, partial remission (even no remission) and the frequencies of GG genotype in rs9909659 (P=0.01 and 0.03) and the patients less than 45 years old was significant association with GA/AA genotype (P=0.01). But associations were not confirmed about event-free survival and leukemia-free survival in the Chinese population studied. Conclusions: It is clear that the AML patients with GG genotype in rs9909659 are not sensitive to standard chemotherapy method Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Abstract 4328 Background The cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C)-based chemotherapy is the major remedial measure for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Deoxycytidine kinase (DCK) and cytidine deaminase (CDA) are the key enzymes in the metabolism of Ara-C. Many single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes of DCK and CDA, which contribute to susceptibility to Ara-C, have been identified in Africans and Europeans. However, there has been no report about the relation among three SNPs in DCK (rs115543896, rs72552079, and rs111454937) and two SNPs in CDA (rs2072671 and rs60369023), and their clinical response to Ara-C for a Chinese population. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether these five SNPs are associated with the therapeutic outcomes of Ara-C-based chemotherapy regimens in patients with AML. Methods A total of 151 patients with AML in a Chinese population were enrolled in our study. SNPs genotyping were performed using the MassARRAY system (Sequenom) by means of the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) method. Results The results illustrated that DCKrs111454937 AA genotype was more frequent in patients with higher platelet count, and A allele frequency was significantly higher in the group £40 years, lower white blood count (WBC) patients group and the group with platelet counts >60′109/L. Meanwhile, both DCKrs72552079 TC (OR=1.225, 95% CI=1.225–9.851, P=0.0192) and CDArs60369023 GA (OR=9.851, 95% CI=1.31–77.93, P=0.0263) significantly improved Ara-C-based chemotherapy response. While DCKrs11554389 AA (OR=0.147, 95% CI=0.027–0.801, P=0.0267) was associated with the decrease of Ara-C-based chemotherapy response. Conclusion It is evident that the DCK and CDA polymorphisms might be the important markers for the AML patients' therapy outcomes in a Chinese population.
