This study was carried out to assess the prognostic power of low CD49d expression (≥10%) in newly diagnosed CLL patients using a previously described cohort. Eighty-five patients were included. Median age at diagnosis; 70 years (43-88); CD49d was expressed in 33/85 (38.8%); 23/33 (69.7%) at ≥30% referred to as 'HiCD49d' and 10/33 (30.3%) between 10 and 30% with a bimodal pattern on scatterplot analysis referred to as 'LoCD49d'. Eleven patients (12.9%) presented as Binet stage B, of whom 8 (72.7%) were CD49d+ (HiCD49d 7/8; LoCD49d 1/8). Seven of 81 patients (8.6%) were NOTCH1 mutated and all were CD49d+ (p ≤ .01). IgVH analysis was performed on 29 (87.8%) of the CD49d+ cases, of whom 21 (72.4%) were unmutated and 8 (27.6%) were mutated. CD38+/CD49d+ accounted for 11/20 (55%) (CD38+/HiCD49D: 9/11; CD38+/LoCD49D: 2/11). At 42 months, treatment had been initiated in 18/85 (21%) patients, of these 10/33 (30.3%) were CD49d+ versus 8/52 (15.4%) of the CD49d- group. The median treatment free interval for the CD49d+ group was 11 months (HiCD49d; 14.5 months, LoCD49d; 11 months) compared to 21.5 months for the CD49d- group. These findings suggest that the predictive value of CD49d expression is retained at expression levels down to 10%.
本研究旨在使用先前描述的队列评估新诊断的 CLL 患者中低 CD49d 表达(≥10%)的预后能力。共纳入 85 例患者。中位诊断年龄为 70 岁(43-88 岁);85 例患者中有 33 例(38.8%)表达 CD49d;33 例中有 23 例(69.7%)≥30%,称为“HiCD49d”,10 例(30.3%)在 10-30%之间,散点图分析呈双峰模式,称为“LoCD49d”。11 例(12.9%)患者表现为 Binet 期 B,其中 8 例(72.7%)为 CD49d+(HiCD49d 7/8;LoCD49d 1/8)。7/81 例(8.6%)患者 NOTCH1 突变,均为 CD49d+(p≤.01)。在 CD49d+的 29 例(87.8%)中进行了 IgVH 分析,其中 21 例(72.4%)未突变,8 例(27.6%)突变。CD38+/CD49d+占 20 例(55%)中的 11 例(CD38+/HiCD49D:9/11;CD38+/LoCD49D:2/11)。在 42 个月时,85 例患者中有 18 例(21%)开始治疗,其中 33 例中有 10 例(30.3%)为 CD49d+,而 52 例中的 8 例(15.4%)为 CD49d-组。CD49d+组的无治疗间隔中位数为 11 个月(HiCD49d;14.5 个月,LoCD49d;11 个月),而 CD49d-组为 21.5 个月。这些发现表明,CD49d 表达的预测价值在表达水平低至 10%时仍然保留。
