Abstract Text

KIT mutations (KIT+) are common in core binding factor (CBF) AML and have been associated with varying prognostic significance. We sought to define the functional and clinical significance of distinct KIT mutations in CBF pediatric AML.Following transfection of exon 17 (E17) and exon 8 (E8) mutations into HEK293 and Ba/F3 cells, KIT phosphorylation, cytokine-independent growth, and response to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) were evaluated. Clinical outcomes of patients treated on COG AAML0531 (NCT01407757), a phase III study of gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO), were analyzed according to mutation status [KIT+ vs. wild-type KIT (KIT-)] and mutation location (E8 vs. E17).KIT mutations were detected in 63 of 205 patients (31%); 22 (35%) involved only E8, 32 (51%) only E17, 6 (10%) both exons, and 3 (5%) alternative exons. Functional studies demonstrated that E17, but not E8, mutations result in aberrant KIT phosphorylation and growth. TKI exposure significantly affected growth of E17, but not E8, transfected cells. Patients with KIT+ CBF AML had overall survival similar to those with KIT- (78% vs. 81%, P = 0.905) but higher relapse rates (RR = 43% vs. 21%; P = 0.005). E17 KIT+ outcomes were inferior to KIT- patients [disease-free survival (DFS), 51% vs. 73%, P = 0.027; RR = 21% vs. 46%, P = 0.007)], although gemtuzumab ozogamicin abrogated this negative prognostic impact. E8 mutations lacked significant prognostic effect, and GO failed to significantly improve outcome.E17 mutations affect prognosis in CBF AML, as well as response to GO and TKIs; thus, clinical trials using both agents should be considered for KIT+ patients.

Filtering

Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
Use simple literal full or partial string matches
Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

KIT	D419del	deletion	unknown	KIT D419del results in the deletion of an amino acid in Ig-like C2-type domain 5 of the Kit protein at amino acid 419 (UniProt.org). The functional effect of D419del is conflicting, as D419del has been reported to result in ligand-independent phosphorylation of Kit (PMID: 16143141, PMID: 15618474), and to result in lack of Kit phosphorylation and lack of cytokine-independent growth in cell culture (PMID: 31182436), and leads to Kit inactivation in response to Ptpre similar to wild-type Kit in cultured cells (PMID: 33732906).
KIT	D419G	missense	no effect - predicted	KIT D419G lies within Ig-like C2-type domain 5 of the Kit protein (UniProt.org). D419G does not result in Kit phosphorylation and is not transforming in cultured cells (PMID: 31182436), and therefore, is predicted to have no effect on Kit protein function.
