Abstract
Trisomy karyotype occurs in 5%-10% of AML. Its mutational landscape and prognostic significance are not well defined. A cohort of 156 trisomy AML patients was analysed, with reference to 615 cytogenetically normal (CN) AML patients. Trisomy AML showed distinct mutational landscape with more prevalent SMC1A, N/KRAS, ASXL1 and BCOR but fewer CEBPAbZIP and NPM1 mutations in patients ≤60, and fewer NPM1 mutations in those >60. NRAS mutations were associated with poor outcome in trisomy AML, whereas DNMT3A and FLT3-ITD mutations had neutral effect. Trisomy AML appeared biologically distinct from CN-AML.
