Abstract:
Background: The decision to perform allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is based on the risk-benefit ratio (non relapse mortality vs reduction of relapse risk). In 2017, the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) proposed a risk score based on cytogenetic and molecular genetic characteristics to facilitate this decision. Despite this improved classification of the genetic landscape of AML, the assessment of risk of relapse should be more precise. However, large cohorts are needed to analyze the clinical outcome of specific genetic alterations. Within the HARMONY alliance, we have now collected harmonized clinical and analytical data for a large number of AML patients. Aims: This study focuses on AML patients who achieved first complete remission (CR1) that, according to ELN risk (low/intermediate) assessment are not classical candidates for alloHSCT as consolidation therapy. The aim of this study is to create a more accurate risk prediction in this setting based on an on-line tool that can visualize the likelihood of relapse and thereby help to determine in which patient alloHSCT should be performed in CR1. Methods: The data included in the HARMONY alliance database was provided by 100 organisations in 18 European countries. In order to be accepted, they passed through quality control, anonymisation and harmonisation processes before being included in the database. Harmonisation is carried out according to the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) Common Data Model (CDM), which is specially designed to accommodate both administrative claims and medical records, making it possible to bring together all the information from different data sources and to speed up its subsequent analysis. Through the analysis platform, we selected patients from the ~5700 patients available that matched the target population of the study. We filtered out those patients without sufficient information on their clinical course, those who did not achieve complete remission and patients with a poor prognosis (adverse risk according to ELN2017), as the study focuses on patients who a priori did not have an indication for alloHSCT. This process resulted in a sample of 842 patients. In the next steps, variable selection was performed together with the treatment of incomplete cases by imputation. Multiple Machine Learning (ML) techniques, both parametric and non-parametric, were tested for predictions (Random Forest, Weibull distribution), all of them taking into account censored data. Other sets of methods were applied to explain the information handled by the previous models and to present graphically, for each prediction, a breakdown of the influence that each feature had on that prediction. Validation of the results is being performed both by testing by medical specialists and by means of statistical indicators, such as Harrell's index. Results: The study population of 842 AML patients included 47% females and the median age was 49 years. The most frequent mutation was NPM1 (50%), followed by DNMT3A (31%) and NRAS (26%). The tool first displays a panel in which characteristics such as age, gender, and possible mutations and cytogenetic abnormalities are selected from a list based on information in the HARMONY database. Once the desired profile has been selected, graphical results are provided: 1). the probability of Relapse-Free Survival (RFS) over time. In parallel, as a reference, the probability of RFS of patients corresponding to each category of the ELN2017 can be seen. 2). a breakdown of the relative weight of each feature in the model at a specific time point, as well as the positive/negative effect that the presence/absence of these features has on the prognostic factor of relapse, adapting all this information in each individual simulation. This preliminary research tool can integrate new data and be expanded with new tools to provide useful results in a simple and accessible way. Conclusion: Building big data platforms, such as the HARMONY Alliance, are absolutely essential to facilitate the creation of tools to support research and ultimately clinical practice. Big data analysis should be considered a very useful field in disease research and it is necessary to share the results with easy-to-use tools that are available at all times. This new ML tool for AML aims to achieve these goals through its simple design and its implementation in mobile devices. Figure 1 Figure 1.
