Abstract 4624: Clinical impact of telomere shortening in normal and leukemia cells in chronic lymphocytic leukemia
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract Introduction: Prognosis in CLL is heterogeneous with the elderly, males and those with multiple co-morbidities having the highest risk of poorer outcomes. Whether this reflects differences in the biology of CLL or the result of altered immunosuppression is unknown. In normal individuals, the telomeres in somatic cells shorten with age, predisposing those with shorter telomeres to death from infections, cancer and cardiovascular disease. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), short telomere length in the leukemia cells predicts poor prognosis. The contribution of un-modifiable factors of age, sex or comorbidities to telomere shortening in CLL has not been elucidated. In the present study, we evaluated buccal cell (BC) telomere length in patients with CLL, to determine if this is predictive of survival, and can enhance the predictive value of leukemia cell telomere length. Methods: The Manitoba CLL tumor bank contains 168 samples from newly diagnosed CLL patients between 2007-2011; with a median follow-up of 4 years. Half of these patients required chemotherapy and one-tenth have died. Genomic DNA was extracted from purified CLL cells and buccal cells (BC) collected at diagnosis. Telomere length was established by multiplex quantitative real-time PCR. Telomere/standard (t/s) ratio was calculated using the beta-globulin gene as the standard. Statistical analysis was performed using Statistical Analysis Software (SAS) and Prism software. Results: The median adjusted telomere length was shorter in CLL cells than in BCs being 0.53 and 2.01, respectively. In BCs, telomere length significantly shortened with increasing age (p = 0.01) but was not reflective of the number of comorbidities or survival. In contrast, telomere length in CLL cells was independent of age (p = 0.44) and sex (p = 0.75). Short CLL telomere length correlated with other biological and clinical markers of poorer prognosis including un-mutated IGHV status (p<0.0001), Zap70 positivity (p = 0.05), CD38 positivity (p = 0.003), short lymphocyte doubling time (p = 0.004), higher Rai stage (p = 0.02) and an earlier time to treatment (p<0.0001). Patients with short CLL telomeres had also decreased survival at four years (p = 0.05); living 22 months less than those with normal telomeres. Adjusting for BC telomere length improved the prognostic value of CLL telomere length as an independent predictor of survival. Conclusions: These results demonstrate that BC telomere length in CLL patients shorten with age independent of co-morbidities, secondary malignancies and the respective CLL telomere length. CLL telomere shortening is strongly associated with biochemical and clinical markers of disease progression and survival. The predictive value for overall survival is enhanced by correcting for changes in buccal cell telomere length. Note: This abstract was not presented at the meeting.

Imitation des enseignantsNi prévalence calibrée, ni vérité terrain. Validation humaine à venir. Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
