PURPOSE The US Food and Drug Administration recently announced reapproval of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) for treatment of CD33-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML), thus opening up opportunities to develop strategies for effective use of GO. In light of our recent report showing prognostic significance of CD33 splicing single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), the objective of this study was to comprehensively evaluate CD33 SNPs for accurate prediction of patients with AML who are more or less likely to respond to GO. PATIENTS AND METHODS We investigated the five new CD33 SNPs (rs2455069, rs35112940, rs61736475, rs1803254, and rs201074739) for association with CD33 leukemic cell surface expression and clinical response in pediatric patients with AML enrolled in the Children’s Oncology Group AAML0531 trial. We further developed a composite CD33 pharmacogenetics (PGx) score using six CD33 SNPs (CD33_PGx6_score) for association with clinical outcome. RESULTS Four CD33 SNPs were associated with cell surface CD33 levels and clinical response in the GO versus no-GO arms. Therefore, the CD33_PGx6_score was built using directional genotype scores for the previously reported splicing SNP and five new SNPs. Patients with a CD33_PGx6_score of 0 or higher had higher CD33 expression levels compared with patients with a score of less than 0 ( P < .001). In addition, patients with a score of 0 or higher demonstrated an improved disease-free survival in the GO versus no-GO arms (62.5% ± 7.8% v 46.8% ± 8.3%, respectively; P = .008) and a reduced risk of relapse (28.3% ± 7.2% v 49.9% ± 8.4%, respectively; P < .001). No improvement from GO was observed in patients with a CD33-PGx6_score of less than 0. Consistent results were observed across the risk groups. CONCLUSION In this study, we report a composite CD33_PGx6_score using directional genotype scores of CD33 SNPs. Once validated, our findings hold promise for use of the CD33_PGx6_score to guide efficient use of GO in patients with AML. In addition, because the CD33_PGx6_score considers SNPs with varying abundance in different ethnic groups, it has potential for global application.

Abstract Background: CD33 is variably expressed on leukemia blasts in most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Efforts to target CD33 therapeutically have focused on gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO), an antibody-drug conjugate delivering a DNA-damaging calicheamicin derivative. Qualification for GO therapy has been determined by expression of CD33 by multidimensional flow cytometry (MDF); patients with positive CD33 expression receive GO. Previous studies from the AAML0531 protocol demonstrated that the cell surface intensity expression of CD33, determined by MDF, predicts the response to treatment with GO, and that in part this expression is regulated by a pair of CD33 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in linkage disequilibrium that also, independently, predict response to therapy. Patients with CC genotype for rs12459419 have lower relapse risk and improved disease-free survival, compared to CT and TT genotypes. Because GO therapy is associated with treatment-related toxicity, it is important to identify biologic variables associated with benefits and risks. To date, there has been no report associating SNP status among CD33 positive versus CD33 negative patients that could assess how the combination of these biomarkers for determining administration of GO therapy could improve patient outcomes. Objective: In an effort to determine which children would benefit most from GO treatment in future prospective pediatric AML protocols, we aimed to elucidate if CD33 SNP genotype status should be combined with quantitative CD33 cell surface antigen expression on the diagnostic leukemia cells (CD33+ versus CD33-) to determine GO eligibility, with a retrospective analysis of children enrolled in Children's Oncology Group AAML0531. Methods: Of 1022 newly diagnosed pediatric patients with de novo AML enrolled on protocol AAML0531, 666 satisfied two criteria for this study: (1) submission of a blood or bone marrow sample for MDF at diagnosis with corresponding CD33 SNP genotype data available, and (2) proper consent for specimen testing. CD33 Expression Levels on Leukemic Blasts The diagnostic AML leukemia population was identified by gating on CD45 versus log-side scatter and CD33 expression levels were determined by measuring the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) by flow cytometry. For a patient to be considered CD33+ two criteria were required: intensity of CD33 on blasts was at minimum four times the MFI of its correspondent autofluorescent control, and at least 80% of the total blasts were greater than this minimum. Genotyping CD33 SNPs CD33-coding SNP rs12459419-Ala14Val and linked promoter SNP rs3865444 were genotyped using the Sequenome (San Diego, CA) platform at the Biomedical Genomics Center, University of Minnesota. Both SNPs had a call rate of 0.98 and were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P=0.05). Results: Association of Genotype and cell surface expression of CD33 for AAML0531 patients Of 666 patients, 84% (560/666) were CD33+. CC genotype was observed in 54.5% (305/560) of CD33+ cases, 37.5% (210/560) had CT genotype and 8% (45/560) TT genotype. Of the 16% (106/666) of patients who were CD33 negative, 33% (35/106) had CC genotype, 47% (50/106) CT genotype, and 20% (21/106) had TT genotype. Comprehensively, 340/666 (51%) had CC genotype (51%) and 10% were CD33 negative (35/340). Conversely, out of a total of 66 patients with TT genotype, 45 (68%) were CD33+ and 32% (21/66) were CD33 negative. Conclusions: These results clarify the relationship between the amount of CD33 expressed on AML at diagnosis as measured by MDF and CD33 SNP genotype status. While correlation with clinical outcome analysis is ongoing, these data support inclusion of CD33 SNP genotyping for eligibility of GO therapy. Therefore, the current recommendation for future COG AML clinical protocols is that GO will be administered to patients with CD33 expression as determined by MDF and CC genotype patients regardless of CD33 expression.

Abstract We present an analysis of prognostic factors derived from a trial in patients with acute myeloid leukemia older than 60 years. The AML96 trial included 909 patients with a median age of 67 years (range, 61-87 years). Treatment included cytarabine-based induction therapy followed by 1 consolidation. The median follow-up time for all patients is 68 months (5.7 years). A total of 454 of all 909 patients reached a complete remission (50%). Five-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival were 9.7% and 14%, respectively. Multivariate analyses revealed that karyotype, age, NPM1 mutation status, white blood cell count, lactate dehydrogenase, and CD34 expression were of independent prognostic significance for OS. On the basis of the multivariate Cox model, an additive risk score was developed that allowed the subdivision of the largest group of patients with an intermediate-risk karyotype into 2 groups. We are, therefore, able to distinguish 4 prognostic groups: favorable risk, good intermediate risk, adverse intermediate risk, and high risk. The corresponding 3-year OS rates were 39.5%, 30%, 10.6%, and 3.3%, respectively. The risk model allows further stratification of patients with intermediate-risk karyotype into 2 prognostic groups with implications for the therapeutic strategy. This study was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT00180115.

AbstractExpression of long non-coding RNA KIAA0125 has been incorporated in various gene expression signatures for prognostic prediction in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, yet its functions and clinical significance remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the clinical and biological characteristics of AML bearing different levels of KIAA0125. We profiled KIAA0125 expression levels in bone marrow cells from 347 de novo AML patients and found higher KIAA0125 expression was closely associated with RUNX1 mutation, but inversely correlated with t(8;21) and t(15;17) karyotypes. Among the 227 patients who received standard chemotherapy, those with higher KIAA0125 expression had a lower complete remission rate, shorter overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) than those with lower expression. The prognostic significance was validated in both TCGA and GSE12417 cohorts. Subgroup analyses showed that higher KIAA0125 expression also predicted shorter DFS and OS in patients with normal karyotype or non-M3 AML. In multivariable analysis, higher KIAA0125 expression remained an adverse risk factor independent of age, WBC counts, karyotypes, and mutation patterns. Bioinformatics analyses revealed that higher KIAA0125 expression was associated with hematopoietic and leukemic stem cell signatures and ATP-binding cassette transporters, two predisposing factors for chemoresistance.

Leukemia-initiating cells of core binding factor (CBF) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) likely derive from early committed hematopoietic precursors expressing CD33. As such, targeting CD33 could ameliorate the chance of cure of CBF AML patients. We compared 12 CBF AML patients treated with Fludarabine, Cytarabine, Idarubicin and Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin (FLAI-GO regimen) with 25 CBF AML patients treated with the same schedule, but without GO. With the limit of small numbers, we observed a consistent trend toward better overall survival, disease free survival and event free survival in the FLAI-GO group. We also demonstrated the ability of GO to induce the disappearance <em>in vitro</em> of the AML1-ETO molecular transcript in a polymerase chain reaction-positive graft without decreasing the clonogenic potential of CD34+/CD38- cells. This represent the proof of principle for using GO in a purging strategy before autologous stem cell transplantation. Therefore, our data argue in favor of the reinstitution of GO in the therapy of CBF AML.

Purpose As most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with morphologic complete remission (CR) ultimately relapse, better predictors for outcome are needed. Recently, Cheson et al suggested using cytogenetic remission (CRc) as part of the criteria for CR. To our knowledge, ours is the first relatively large study evaluating the usefulness of CRc attained immediately following induction chemotherapy. Patients and Methods We included AML patients treated on Cancer and Leukemia Group B front-line studies with cytogenetic samples obtained at diagnosis and at the first day of documented CR following induction. Patients with abnormal cytogenetics at diagnosis, and normal cytogenetics at CR (NCR; n = 103) were compared with those with abnormal cytogenetics both at diagnosis and at CR (ACR; n = 15) for overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR). Cox proportional hazards models determined the prognostic significance of cytogenetics at CR, adjusting for other covariates. Results Clinical features were similar for both groups, with the exception of favorable cytogenetics [t(8;21), inv(16)/t(16;16), t(15;17)] at diagnosis, which was more frequent (P = .03) in the NCR group. Median follow-up was 3.1 years (range, 1.0 to 11.4 years). ACR patients had significantly shorter OS (P = .006) and DFS (P = .0001), and higher CIR (P = .0001). In multivariable models, the NCR and ACR groups were predictors for OS (P = .03), DFS (P = .02), and CIR (P = .05). The relative risk of relapse or death was 2.1 times higher for ACR patients than for NCR patients (95% CI, 1.1 to 3.9). Conclusion Our data suggest that converting to normal karyotype at the time of first CR is an important prognostic indicator and support the use of CRc as a criterion of CR in AML.

AbstractWe report the results of a prospective, randomized phase 3 trial evaluating the use of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) in an intensive consolidation approach in 657 patients 17-60 years of age. Patients in first complete remission (CR1) after cytarabine and standard- or high-dose daunorubicin induction received 2 cycles of consolidation with high-dose cytarabine followed by peripheral blood progenitor cell collection. The 352 patients who entered consolidation were randomized to receive GO (n = 132) or not (n = 138) and then proceeded to autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). GO was given to 67 patients. Median follow-up was 50.9 months. Results of the intention-to-treat analysis demonstrated a 4-year disease-free survival (DFS) of 33.6% versus 35.9% (P = .54) and an overall survival (OS) of 41.3% versus 41.9% (P = .52) for those randomized to receive GO versus no GO, respectively. Patients with favorable- and intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with high-dose daunorubicin and autologous HCT had 4-year DFS rates of 60% and 40% and OS rates of 80% and 49.3%, respectively. For younger AML patients in CR1, autologous HCT should be considered in favorable- and intermediate-cytogenetic risk patients who do not have an allogeneic donor. The addition of a single dose of GO in this setting did not improve outcomes. This trial is registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00049517.

Abstract The prognostic significance of c-kit receptor expression on leukemic blast cells was determined in 122 children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) entered onto Childrens Cancer Group protocol 213. Clinical and laboratory characteristics as well as outcome were analyzed according to the percentage of blast cells expressing c-kit receptors and the relative number of c-kit receptors per cell as determined by indirect immunofluorescence. c-kit receptor expression was strongly associated with the expression of the CD34 antigen. However, contrary to findings in adult patients with AML, c-kit receptor expression by childhood AML blast cells was not predictive of a poor response to therapy.

In acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, a variety of clinical and biologic parameters, including phenotype, have been examined for potential value in predicting treatment response and survival. The European Group for the Immunological Classification of Leukaemias (EGIL) has proposed that AML be defined immunologically by the expression of 2 or more of the following myeloid markers: myeloperoxidase, CD13, CD33, CDw65, and CD117. With regard to this classification, the prognostic significance of 21 antigens taken separately and with immunophenotypic subgroups were evaluated and compared with other clinical and biological variables in 177 adult AML patients. None of the antigens tested were associated with treatment outcome. In contrast, patients with blasts disclosing a full expression of panmyeloid phenotype (defined by the expression of all 5 myeloid markers) had a higher complete remission rate (P < .0001) and differed significantly in disease-free survival (P = .02) and overall survival (P = .008) than patients whose cells expressed fewer than 5 of these markers. In multivariate analysis, only age, panmyeloid phenotype, performance status, and permeability glycoprotein activity influence treatment outcome. Cytogenetics was significant in univariate analysis but not in multivariate analysis, most likely because of the redundancy with panmyeloid phenotype and a higher sensitivity of immunophenotyping. Patients whose cells exhibit the panmyeloid phenotype appear to define a relatively homogeneous biological subset of AML. The 4 independent prognostic factors were used to create a prognostic score, defined by the number of factors present. This score permitted a stratification of patients with AML, thereby allowing for the consideration of innovative therapies to improve outcome in the poorer outcome groups.
