RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: A complex karyotype (CK) is considered a poor prognostic marker in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). METHODS: The study analyzed 644 untreated CLL patients (pts) using conventional/molecular cytogenetics to reveal the presence of a CK and its composition and to assess its predictive value. The mutational status ofTP53 was detected by next generation sequencing. RESULTS: A CK was detected in 79 pts (12.3%). Patients with a CK showed shorter overall survival (OS) compared to those without a CK (77 months vs. 115 months, pâ¯<â¯0.0001). Chromosomes most frequently included in a CK were 13, 11, 17, 8, 2, and 6. The most common aberrations in a CK were translocations, numerical changes and dicentric chromosomes (with no effect on OS). Patients with aberrations ofTP53 and ATM were shown to have adverse prognosis comparable to patients with a CK without these abnormalities. A stronger impact of a CK on OS of female and older CLL patients was observed. CONCLUSIONS: The determining of the presence of a CK is essential in modern clinical CLL practice. According to recent studies, the presence of a CK affects clinical and treatment decision-making.

BACKGROUND: TP53 mutation (TP53mut) and a complex karyotype (CK) were shown to be predictors of poor outcome in mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL). In this study we examined the combined effect of both of these risk factors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients diagnosed with MCL between January 2000 and December 2014 (n = 74) were evaluated. Forty-eight of them had available material for TP53 and cytogenetic examination. We analyzed the prognostic effect of combined TP53mut and CK in the cohort of patients treated with rituximab-containing therapy. RESULTS: Three-year (3-y) overall survival (OS) and 3-y progression-free survival (PFS) in CK patients were shorter compared with non-CK (P = .001 for OS; P = .02 for PFS). TP53mut was a predictor of shorter survival compared with TP53 wild type (OS and PFS; P < .001). The incidence of TP53mut was not significantly associated with CK (P = .240). CK and TP53mut were predictors of inferior PFS and OS independent of age and Mantle-Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index, with hazard ratios of 2.35 (P = .024), 4.50 (P < .001) for PFS and 4.31 (P < .001), 5.46 (P < .001) for OS analysis in the CK and TP53mut groups, respectively. The combination of TP53mut and CK status stratified the patients into 3 prognostic groups (P < .001) with the worst outcome in patients with CK and TP53mut. CONCLUSION: TP53 mutation and CK occurred independently and patients harboring both had a dismal prognosis. The study suggests the importance of molecular cytogenetics and examination of the TP53mut status to be performed simultaneously before treatment.
