Abstract

PURPOSE: Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) improves overall survival (OS). We evaluated the impact of MDS genetics on the benefit of HCT in a biological assignment (donor v no donor) study. METHODS: We performed targeted sequencing in 309 patients age 50-75 years with International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) intermediate-2 or high-risk MDS, enrolled in the Blood and Marrow Transplant Clinical Trials Network 1102 study and assessed the association of gene mutations with OS. Patients with TP53 mutations were classified as TP53 multihit if two alleles were altered (via point mutation, deletion, or copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity). RESULTS: The distribution of gene mutations was similar in the donor and no donor arms, with TP53 (28% v 29%; P = .89), ASXL1 (23% v 29%; P = .37), and SRSF2 (16% v 16%; P = .99) being most common. OS in patients with a TP53 mutation was worse compared with patients without TP53 mutation (21% ± 5% [SE] v 52% ± 4% at 3 years; P < .001). Among those with a TP53 mutation, OS was similar between TP53 single versus TP53 multihit (22% ± 8% v 20% ± 6% at 3 years; P = .31). Considering HCT as a time-dependent covariate, patients with a TP53 mutation who underwent HCT had improved OS compared with non-HCT treatment (OS at 3 years: 23% ± 7% v 11% ± 7%; P = .04), associated with a hazard ratio of 3.89; 95% CI, 1.87 to 8.12; P < .001 after adjustment for covariates. OS among patients with molecular IPSS (IPSS-M) very high risk without a TP53 mutation was significantly improved if they had a donor (68% ± 10% v 0% ± 12% at 3 years; P = .001). CONCLUSION: HCT improved OS compared with non-HCT treatment in patients with TP53 mutations irrespective of TP53 allelic status. Patients with IPSS-M very high risk without a TP53 mutation had favorable outcomes when a donor was available.

  • In the BMT CTN 1102 study, there were no predictor factors for long-term survival (e.g., no difference in single vs. multihit mTP53).

    “although without predictor factors for patients with long‐term survival (e.g., no difference in single vs. multihit mTP53).”

    From Long‐term follow‐up and combined Phase 2 results of eprenetapopt and azacitidine in patients with <i>TP53</i> mutant MDS/AML (2025) · cites this paper as [44]

    The Results section, “Genetic Determinants of Outcomes,” reports similar three-year overall survival for patients with single-hit and multihit TP53 mutations, supporting the example. But the same section identifies TP53 and other mutations as associated with survival, so the broader claim that there were no predictive factors is overstated. Page numbers were not supplied in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.88)

  • In the BMT CTN 1102 study, mTP53 MDS patients had a 3-year OS of around 20% with transplant versus 7% without transplant.

    “prospective evaluation of mTP53 MDS patients from the BMT CTN 1102 study showed a 3‐year OS of around 20% (vs. 7% without transplant)”

    From Long‐term follow‐up and combined Phase 2 results of eprenetapopt and azacitidine in patients with <i>TP53</i> mutant MDS/AML (2025) · cites this paper as [44]

    The Results section reports three-year overall survival of 23% ± 7% for patients with TP53-mutated MDS who received transplant, supporting 'around 20%.' The paper reports 11% ± 7%, not 7%, for the non-transplant comparison; 7% is the reported standard error. (LLM, conf=0.90)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Historically, 2-year OS for this population is around 20%.

    “which historically is around 20%.”

    From Long‐term follow‐up and combined Phase 2 results of eprenetapopt and azacitidine in patients with <i>TP53</i> mutant MDS/AML (2025) · cites this paper as [44]

    The Results section (Genetic Determinants of Outcomes; page unavailable) reports approximately 20% overall survival for patients with TP53-mutated MDS, but at three years, not two. It reports an outcome in the study cohort rather than a historical two-year survival estimate. (LLM, conf=0.84)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
