Interest of CALR Allele Burden in Diagnosis and Follow-up of Patients With CALR Mutated Myeloproliferative Syndromes (CALRSUIVI) (CALRSUIVI)

March 5, 2026 updated by: University Hospital, Angers
Prospective study to evaluate the relevance of CALR allele burden monitoring as a molecular marker of disease progression.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

A first local study on 45 patients showed the prognostic impact of CALR mutation quantification in follow-up, independently of the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) prognostic score validated in this group of patients.

This study aims to evaluate a multicenter cohort of 260 patients, including all types of CALR-mutated MPNs and several follow-up samples, to model the temporal evolution of CALR allele burden.

Blood of MPN patients will be collected, at the time of diagnosis and for 3 years (max 1 sample/year), for the quantification of the CALR allele burden. During follow-up, a clinicobiological score to define the progression or not of the disease for each patient will be evaluated in Essential Thrombocythemia (ET) and MyeloFibrosis (MF).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
For each disease, Hazard Ratio of the different trajectories of CALR allele burden to explain the time to onset of disease progression by the clinicobiological score.
Time Frame: 3 years follow-up

Clinicobiological score :

For ET, disease progression if ≥ 1 of:

  • leukocytosis > 12 G/L or myelemia > 10% or erythroblasts > 1%,
  • anemia or thrombocytopenia not related to drug toxicity,
  • development or worsening of splenomegaly,
  • development of thrombocytosis (platelets > 450 G/L) on cytoreductive therapy,
  • poor disease control (at least one change in therapy for reasons other than adverse events),
  • hematologic transformation or death related to hematologic pathology.

For MF, disease progression if ≥ 1 of:

  • anemia < 100 g/L, neutropenia < 1 G/L, thrombocytopenia < 100 G/L and/or development of general signs not previously present or recurring after improvement,
  • increase in leukocytosis > 25 G/L not previously present,
  • appearance or aggravation of transfusion dependence,
  • appearance (> 5 cm) or aggravation (> 50%) of splenomegaly,
  • leukemic transformation or death related to the hematologic pathology.
3 years follow-up

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
A multinomial logistic model will be performed to identify the characteristics associated with the different trajectories of CALR allele burden (pathology, treatment, additional mutations, type of CALR mutation).
Time Frame: 3 years follow-up
3 years follow-up
