Abstract
BACKGROUND In Mexico, the incidence of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has increased in the last few years. Mortality is higher than in developed countries, even though the same chemotherapy protocols are used. CCAAT Enhancer Binding Protein Alpha (CEBPA) mutations are recurrent in AML, influence prognosis, and help to define treatment strategies. CEBPA mutational profiles and their clinical implications have not been evaluated in Mexican pediatric AML patients. AIM OF THE STUDY To identify the mutational landscape of the CEBPA gene in pediatric patients with de novo AML and assess its influence on clinical features and overall survival (OS). MATERIALS AND METHODS DNA was extracted from bone marrow aspirates at diagnosis. Targeted massive parallel sequencing of CEBPA was performed in 80 patients. RESULTS CEBPA was mutated in 12.5% (10/80) of patients. Frameshifts at the N-terminal region were the most common mutations 57.14% (8/14). CEBPA biallelic (CEBPA BI) mutations were identified in five patients. M2 subtype was the most common in CEBPA positive patients (CEBPA POS) (p = 0.009); 50% of the CEBPA POS patients had a WBC count > 100,000 at diagnosis (p = 0.004). OS > 1 year was significantly better in CEBPA negative (CEBPA NEG) patients (p = 0.0001). CEBPA POS patients (either bi- or monoallelic) had a significantly lower OS (p = 0.002). Concurrent mutations in FLT3, CSF3R, and WT1 genes were found in CEBPA POS individuals. Their contribution to poor OS cannot be ruled out. CONCLUSION CEBPA mutational profiles in Mexican pediatric AML patients and their clinical implications were evaluated for the first time. The frequency of CEBPA POS was in the range reported for pediatric AML (4.5-15%). CEBPA mutations showed a negative impact on OS as opposed to the results of other studies.

Abstract
Background: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the second most frequent leukemia in childhood. The FLT3 gene participates in hematopoietic stem cell proliferation. FLT3 mutations are recurrent in AML and influence prognosis. In Mexican pediatric AML patients, FLT3 mutational profile, and their clinical impact have not been evaluated. Aim of the study: This study aimed to identify the profile of FLT3 mutations in pediatric patients with de novo AML and to assess their possible influence on overall survival (OS) and other clinical features. Methods: Massive parallel target sequencing of FLT3 was performed in 80 patients. Results: FLT3 mutations [internal tandem duplication (ITD) or tyrosine kinase domain (TKD)] were identified in 24% of them. OS was significantly lower in FLT3 POS cases than in FLT3 NEG (p = 0.03). The average OS for FLT3 POS was 1.2 vs. 2.2 years in FLT3 NEG. There were no significant differences in the children's sex, age, percentage of blasts in bone marrow aspirate, or white blood cell count in peripheral blood at diagnosis between both groups. No differences were identified stratifying by the mutational load (high > 0.4) or type of mutation. The negative effect of FLT3 mutations was also observed in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Conclusions: FLT3 mutational profile is described in Mexican pediatric AML patients for the first time. Mutated FLT3 negatively impacts the outcome of AML patients, even considering the APL group. The clinical benefit from treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors in the FLT3 POS pediatric patients needs to be assessed in clinical trials. FLT3 testing may contribute to better risk stratification in our pediatric AML patients.
