Abstract Background: Minimal residual disease (MRD) assessment retains high prognostic value in Acute Myeloid Leukemia patients (AML) undergoing intensive induction therapy. Widely available MRD techniques include multicolour flow cytometry (MFC), RT-PCR for recurrent genetic lesion and, for patients lacking specific markers, RT-PCR for the pan- leukemic marker WT1. However, most of the data on the prognostic value of MRD come from trials including younger patients treated with conventional 3+7 regimen. AML arising from a previous myelodisplastic syndrome (s-AML) and therapy-related AML (t-AML) are usually under-represented in trial involving younger patients and are unlikely to respond to conventional induction. Few data are therefore available on the kinetics and the prognostic value of MRD in elderly s- AML and t-AML patients, particularly in the context of alternative induction regimens. Aims: We evaluated MRD in a cohort of elderly s-AML or t-AML patients receiving induction therapy either with a fludarabine-containing regimen or CPX-351, in order to compare the probability of achieving MRD negativity, to disclose the prognostic value of MRD in this setting and to define the best time-points for MRD assessments. Methods: A total of 136 elderly (>60 year, median age 67, range 60-75) patients were analyzed in this study. Patients were treated between January 2005 and January 2020 in our Center, either with CPX-351 (n=35) or fludarabine- high dose cytarabine-idarubicin (FLAI), with (n=72) or without (n =29) gemtuzumab-ozogamicin (GO). MRD was retrospectively analyzed in all patients achieving hematological complete remission (CR) with both MFC and WT1 expression levels.All patients were affected by s-AML or t-AML, defined according to the WHO 2016 criteria. Results: After induction, CR was achieved in 83 patients (61%). CR rate was 28/35 in patients treated with CPX-351 (80%), significantly higher when compared to patients receiving FLAI (55/101, 54.5%, p<0.05). The addition of GO to FLAI did not increase CR rate. Among CR patients, a total of 41 (49.4%) and 44 patients (53%) achieved MRD negativity, with MFC or WT1-based methods, respectively. MFC MRD negativity probability was higher among patients receiving CPX-351 as induction therapy (MFC MRD negativity rate of 16/28, 57% and 25/55, 45% in CR patients who received CPX-351 or FLAI, respectively, p<0.05). Adding GO to FLAI did not improve MRD negativity probability. Moreover, MRD showed significant prognostic value in terms of Overall Survival in all treatment group (2-year OS of 74 and 36% in patients with or without residual MFC MRD after induction, respectively, p<0.05). WT1-based MRD lead to similar results. Conclusion: In conclusion MRD assessment retains a strong prognostic value and may help to identify patients with suboptimal response to treatment. The higher rate of MRD negativity observed with CPX-351 may be related with a more efficient anti-leukemic activity of the drug in this particular setting. The evaluation of MRD with both MFC and WT1-based assessment lead to superimposable conclusions and allowed us to obtain MRD data from virtually all AML patients treated in the selected time period.
