Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients exhibit diverse molecular and cytogenetic changes with heterogeneous outcomes. The functionally-derived LSC17 gene expression score has demonstrated strong prognostic significance in retrospective analyses of adult and pediatric AML cohorts, where above-median scores are associated with worse outcomes compared to below-median scores in intensively-treated patients. Here we used a laboratory-developed clinically-validated NanoStringbased LSC17 assay to test the prognostic value of the LSC17 score in a prospective multicentre study of 276 newly-diagnosed AML patients. Each patient's score was classified as high or low by comparison to a previously-established reference score. In the entire cohort, a high LSC17 score was associated with poor risk features, including advanced age and unfavorable genetic mutations. In the subset of 190 patients treated intensively, a high LSC17 score was associated with lower remission rates (63% vs 94% after induction, P.

Background: Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) exhibits significant heterogeneity in clinical outcomes, yet current prognostic stratification systems based on genetic alterations alone cannot fully capture this complexity. This study aimed to develop an integrated epigenetic-based classification system and evaluate its prognostic value.
Methods: We performed multi-omics analysis on five independent cohorts totaling 1,103 AML patients.

Previous studies have reported that genes highly expressed in leukemic stem cells (LSC) may dictate the survival probability of patients and expression-based cellular deconvolution may be informative in forecasting prognosis. However, whether the prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can be predicted using gene expression and deconvoluted cellular abundances is debatable. Nine different cell-type abundances of a training set composed of the AML samples of 422 patients, were used to build a model for predicting prognosis by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator Cox regression.

Lysine methyltransferase 2A-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia (-r AML) is a special entity in the 2022 World Health Organization classification of myeloid neoplasms, characterized by high relapse rate and adverse outcomes. Current risk stratification was established on the treatment response and translocation partner of . To study the transcriptomic feature and refine the current stratification of pediatric -r AML, we analyzed clinical and RNA sequencing data of 351 patients.
