BACKGROUND: The E-26 transformation-specific related gene (ERG) is frequently expressed in cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML). Herein, we performed a meta-analysis to investigate the relationship between the prognostic significance of ERG expression and CN-AML.
METHODS: A systematic review of PubMed database and other search engines were used to identify the studies between January 2005 and November 2016. A total of 667 CN-AML patients were collected from seven published studies. Of the 667 patients underwent intensive chemotherapy, 429 had low expression of ERG and 238 had high expression of ERG. Summary odds ratio (OR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the ERG expression and CN-AML were calculated using fixed- or random-effects models. Heterogeneity was assessed using Chi-squared-based Q- statistic test and I2 statistics. All statistical analyses were performed using R.3.3.1 software packages (R Foundation for Statistical Computing, Vienna, Austria) and RevMan5.3 (Cochrane Collaboration, Copenhagen, Denmark).
RESULTS: Overall, patients with high ERG expression had a worse relapse (OR = 2.5127, 95% CI: 1.5177-4.1601, P = 0.0003) and lower complete remission (OR = 0. 3495, 95% CI: 0.2418-0.5051, P< 0.0001). With regard to the known molecular markers, both internal tandem duplications of the fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 gene (OR = 3.8634, 95% CI: 1.8285-8.1626, P = 0.004) and brain and acute leukemia, cytoplasmic (OR = 3.1538, 95% CI: 2.0537-4.8432, P< 0.0001) were associated with the ERG expression. In addition, the results showed a statistical significance between French-American-British (FAB) classification subtype (minimally differentiated AML and AML without maturation, OR = 4.7902, 95% CI: 2.7772-8.2624, P< 0.0001; acute monocytic leukemia, OR = 0.2324, 95% CI: 0.0899-0.6006, P = 0.0026) and ERG expression.
CONCLUSION: High ERG expression might be used as a strong adverse prognostic factor in CN-AML.
