Association of prior epidemiologic exposures with cytogenetic risk in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

2017 
7047 Background: In addition to secondary AML (sAML), important lifestyle and environmental exposures associated with increased risk of AML development have been identified in recent case-control studies including obesity (BMI>30kg/m2), smoking, regular acetaminophen use, and rural/farm habitat. The association of these exposures with AML cytogenetic risk groups is unknown. We therefore evaluated relevant exposures in a cohort of 301 AML patients with confirmed central cytogenetics analysis diagnosed and treated at Mayo Clinic FL and AZ since 1995. Methods: Documented patient exposures were extracted from central electronic medical records, including: prior chemotherapy/radiation or hematologic malignancy, occupation, select medications, “toxins” (esp. benzene) and solid organ transplantation (SOT). Standard cytogenetic risk categories (including intermediate abnormal) were applied. The association of epidemiologic exposures with cytogenetic risk was evaluated on multivariable analysis using logistic regr...
