Zusammenfassung
The NUP214-ABL1 fusion gene in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) has recently been identified as a possible target for imatinib and related tyrosine kinase inhibitors, but exact data regarding the prognostic impact and frequency of the several putative NUP214-ABL1 mRNA transcripts are still missing. We investigated 279 adult patients with T-ALL treated within the framework of the GMALL 5/93 and 6/99 therapy trials for NUP214-ABL1 by using a novel multiplex real-time, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Eleven (3.9%) patients were NUP214-ABL1 positive, and 5 different transcripts were observed; 8 patients had a thymic immunophenotype, 1 had an early T-cell immunophenotype, and 2 had a mature T-cell immunophenotype. NUP214-ABL1-positive and -negative patients did not differ significantly in their major clinical features. In contrast to previous reports suggesting an adverse clinical course for NUP214-ABL1-positive patients, no significant difference in overall survival was observed. Based on the results, we have established and tested a novel PCR method for simplified detection of the NUP214-ABL1 fusion gene.
