IDH2 and acute myeloid leukemia: Next with the largest cohort of patients with DNMT3A R882 mutant MDS known to date from multiple institutions, DNMT3A R882 mutant MDS cases were shown to have more severe leukopenia, enriched SRSF2 and IDH2 mutations, increased cases with excess blasts (47% vs 22.5%, p=.004), markedly increased risk of AML transformation (25.8%, vs. 1.7%, p=.0001) and a worse progression-free survival (PFS) (median 20.3, vs. >50 months, p=.009) than non-R882 mutant MDS cases.
