Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Although the effects of U2 small nuclear RNA auxiliary factor 1 gene (U2AF1) mutations on the outcomes of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) have previously been investigated, their prognostic significance remains controversial. We performed a meta-analysis to investigate the impact of U2AF1 mutations on MDS progression.
METHODS: Two reviewers independently extracted information such as hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidential intervals (CIs) for overall survival (OS) and leukemia-free survival (LFS) as well as the number of surviving patients each year after diagnosis from the included studies.
RESULTS: Thirteen studies with a total of 3038 patients were included. The summary odds ratio (OR) for U2AF1 mutations with an OS of 5 years was 0.37, the summary HR for U2AF1 mutations in OS was 1.60, and the summary OR for an OS of 5 years in patients with U2AF1S34 and U2AF1Q157 was 3.68. There were no significant differences in leukemia-free survival or hypomethylating therapy response between patients with and without U2AF1 mutations.
CONCLUSIONS: U2AF1 mutations were associated with poor survival in MDS patients, and patients with U2AF1Q157 had a worse OS than those with U2AF1S34. Our findings suggest that MDS patients with U2AF1 mutations could benefit more from hypomethylation therapy.
