Abstract

Significant heterogeneity has been reported in outcome of Acute lymphoblastic leukemia with t(1;19)(q23;p13)/TCF3::PBX1 in adolescents and adults leading to a lack of consensus on precise risk stratification. We evaluated clinical outcome of 17 adult ALL cases (≥15 years) with this genotype treated on intensive regimes.13/17 received COG0232 and 4/17 cases received UK-ALL protocol. All achieved CR (100%) with above treatment. End of induction MRD was evaluated in 14/17 cases of which 11 (78.5%) achieved MRD negativity. Total nine patients relapsed (7 marrows, 2 CNS). Overall survival at 2 years was 53.3%. The 2 year estimated PFS was 42.9%. The 2 years CIR was 54.2%. Adults with this genotype perform poorly despite early favorable response. Incorporation of novel immunotherapies and prompt HSCT should be strongly considered with this genotype. Targeted NGS panels for additional genetic aberrations can further help in risk stratifying and guiding therapy for this genotype.
