Clonal Architecture of ASXL1-mutated Myelofibrosis (CLONEMF)

March 6, 2026 updated by: University Hospital, Angers
Prospective study to decipher the clonal architecture of ASXL1-mutated primary and secondary myelofibrosis and its impact on prognosis

Conditions

Detailed Description

The clonal architecture of myelofibrosis patients is still little described. Inconsistent results in terms of the prognostic value of some mutations are observed in the literature, in particular concerning ASXL1 mutations. We assume that a better understanding of the clonal architecture of ASXL1-mutated myelofibrosis could help refining the prognostic impact of ASXL1 mutations.

This study aims to evaluate a multicenter cohort of 50 patients. Blood of patients will be collected within 18 months of diagnosis. After 4 years of follow-up of the patient as part of his usual care, data on survival and leukemic transformation will be collected.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Identify subgroups of ASXL1-mutated myelofibrosis based on clonal architecture data
Time Frame: 24 months
The clonal architecture is defined by the number of mutations (numerical), the order of acquisition of the mutations (categorial, pre/post/separated), the mutational branching (categorial, yes/no), the presence of distinct clones (categorial, yes/no) and the transition towards homozygosity of each clone (categorial, yes/no). All parameters of clonal architecture will be analyzed together using a multivariate classification (Factor Analysis for Mixed Data) followed by a clustering which allow us to identify homogeneous cluster of patients.
24 months
