We investigated molecular and biological parameters reflecting the biology of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) that may help us to predict the time to first treatment (TTT). A group of 33 patients with newly diagnosed CLL (Binet stage A) were analyzed. We developed a new scoring system based on the serum levels of β(2)-microglobulin (β(2)M) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and the expression of lipoprotein lipase (LPL). Patients with a score of 0 had a TTT of 58.4 months, while patients with a score of 3 (increased levels of β(2)M, LPL, and VEGF) had a significantly shorter TTT of only 10.6 months (p < 0.0001).
我们研究了反映慢性淋巴细胞白血病(CLL)生物学特征的分子和生物学参数,这些参数可能有助于我们预测首次治疗的时间(TTT)。对 33 例新诊断的 CLL(Binet 分期 A)患者进行了分析。我们基于β(2)-微球蛋白(β(2)M)和血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)的血清水平以及脂蛋白脂肪酶(LPL)的表达,建立了一种新的评分系统。评分 0 的患者 TTT 为 58.4 个月,而评分 3(β(2)M、LPL 和 VEGF 水平升高)的患者 TTT 显著缩短至仅 10.6 个月(p<0.0001)。
