1 Flow cytometry for MRD detec1on: Focus on AML Sindhu Cherian University of Washington, Sea6le, WA, USA

2 Residual disease in hematopoie1c malignancy Residual disease has tradi:onal been defined by morphology in hematopoie:c neoplasms Minimal residual disease (MRD) is defined as disease present at a level below the sensi:vity of morphologic detec:on Performed using a method more sensi:ve and specific than morphology Flow cytometry Molecular methods

3 Focus of this talk will be on AML Tradi:onal criteria for response in AML were created in the mid 1950s and included Morphologic criteria blast <5% Clinical criteria count recovery, no evidence of extramedullary disease We have had the ability to detect MRD using different methods for >20 years Flow cytometry Molecular methods Increasing sensi1vity 10X flow Standard PCR 100X flow Next genera:on sequencing

4 Molecular methods: MRD in AML Molecular methods: PCR for reduc:on in over expressed genes (eg WT1) Sensi:vity ~0.01% Applicable in ~50% of AML Directed PCR for a muta:on or transloca:on Sensi:vity % Highest sensi*vi*es using next genera*on sequencing methods Current targets include Muta:ons: NPM1, MLL, CEBPa Transloca:ons such as t(8;21), inv(16), t(15;17) Currently applicable ~50-70% of cases Poten:al is unknown and growing as we detect new markers with next genera:on sequencing plaaorms The role of molecular diagnos:cs for MRD detec:on in AML is likely to grow in the future

5 Flow cytometry for MRD in AML Sensi:vity ~0.01% Reported to be informa:ve in ~85-95% of cases in most studies Several variables underlie the success of flow cytometry for MRD detec:on in AML Number of events collected 500,000 to 1,000,000 More events more sensi:ve Number of colors used More informa:ve if more colors are used in the same tube Ideally 6 Experience of operator Immunophenotype of blasts and difference from normal may impact ease of detec*on Familiarity with normal an:gen expression pa6erns is cri:cal

6 Comparison of flow and PCR for MRD Detec1on in AML Flow cytometry is currently more widely applicable Flow cytometry is applicable in 85-95% of cases when using at least 6 colors Molecular methods apply in 50-70% of cases Molecular methods, when applicable are more sensi:ve Molecular (PCR for transloca:on or gene muta:on) Sensi:vity ~0.001% Next genera:on sequencing methods even more sensi:ve Flow Sensi:vity 0.01%

7 Impact of MRD on survival in AML Regardless of method used to measure MRD, the impact of MRD post therapy is clear MRD holds up in mul:variable analysis as a predictor of survival and relapse in mul:ple studies Some (including Buccisano et al and Loken et al. 2012) suggest including AML MRD in designing risk adapted therapeu:c regimens It is clear that MRD will be an important part of monitoring in pa:ents with AML post therapy and that flow cytometry has an important role in establishing MRD

8 Clinical impact of MRD in AML Author Publica1on year Clinically significant 1me point: level of MRD with clinical significance San Miguel et al End I: 0.5% End Int: 0.2% Vendif et al End C: 0.035% Sievers et al End I: 0.5% Kern et al End C: LD Al-Mawali et al End I: 0.15% Rubnitz et al End I: 1% Bucciscano et al Post C: 0.035% Loken et al Post I: Any, similarly bad if >0%/<1% or 1% Walter et al. 2011, 2012 Any MRD at CR1 and CR2 pre transplant predicted increased overall mortality and likelihood of relapse Chen et al 2015 Any MRD, end induc:on I=induc:on, Int=intensifica:on, C=consolida:on, CR-complete remission

11 Open ques1ons regarding MRD detec1on by flow cytometry in AML What is the best :me point to assess for MRD Controversial as to whether post induc:on or post consolida:on in most informa:ve Kern et al pose a role for early blast clearance (Day 16) Pre and post transplant MRD seems informa:ve What is the most important threshold Range of 1% to any level of MRD (no lower threshold) Most groups use WBC as the denominator while occasional groups use mononuclear cells Kern et al recommend using degree of reduc:on in abnormal blasts (log difference) rather than a percentage

12 Strategies for flow cytometric iden1fica1on of MRD Difference from normal Iden:fying a leukemia associated phenotype Best strategies combine the two

13 Difference from normal In our laboratory we focus on the difference from normal approach to define MRD. 10 color flow cytometry >500,000 events collected for MRD analysis This relies on a thorough understanding of pa6erns of an:gen expression on normal blasts. In the next few slides we will review normal an:gen expression on blasts and discuss how an:gen expression can be altered in the face of a myeloid stem cell neoplasm (in this case AML)

14 Panel used in our laboratory LSR II with 4 lasers (Becton Dickinson) Allows assessment of 10 colors

15 Iden1fying progenitors Progenitor iden:fica:on generally begins with the CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate (progenitors) can be posi:vely iden:fied using a progenitor marker (CD34 +/- CD117) Be aware: Some neoplas2c popula2ons may be overlooked if you use only this strategy AML with monocy2c differen2a2on, acute promyelocy2c leukemia Viable cells CD45 versus SSC defined blast gate Viable cells Blast gate "Blast gate" In most plots you see in this presenta:on, CD34+ blasts will be colored red

16 The CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate contains more than just progenitors When undertaking AML MRD tes:ng, it is important to recognize other cells that reside in the CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate so these are not confused for an abnormal blast popula:on Basophils, A panel for AML MRD detec:on would allow reliable differen:a:on of these popula:ons from normal progenitors and abnormal blasts Viable "Blast gate" "Blast gate" Viable cells Blast Blast gate Blast gate CD 123 PE

19 Progenitor abnormali1es Abnormali:es on myeloid progenitors (blasts) seen in myeloid stem cell neoplasms usually fall into one of 4 categories Abnormal intensity of an:gen expression (increased, decreased or absent). Asynchronous expression of an:gens associated with maturity with an:gens deno:ng immaturity Homogeneous expression of an an:gen usually expressed at varying levels with matura:on Expression of an:gens from other lineages. Recogni:on of such abnormali:es requires a thorough understanding of normal pa6erns of an:gen expression

20 Abnormal intensity of an1gen expression Normal AML CD33 PE CD33 PE

21 Asynchronous expression of an1gens associated with maturity and an1gens associated with immaturity Normal AML CD34+

22 Homogeneous expression of an an1gen usually expressed at varying levels through blast matura1on Normal AML CD34 APC

23 Expression of non-lineage an1gens Normal Blast gate AML CD5 PE-Cy5 CD7 PE Blast gate CD5 PE-Cy5 CD7 PE

24 Leukemia associated immunophenotype Using a different from normal strategy to iden:fy abnormal blast popula:ons in AML, leukemia associated immunophenotypes (LAIP) can be detected in most cases Most studies using 6 colors detect LAIP in 85-95% of AML For a sample list of specific LAIPS that have been described in AML in the literature see the following references Al-Mawali et al AJCP Olaru et al Cytometry Part B (Clinical Cytometry) In our laboratory (using 10 colors) we are able to define an abnormal immunophenotype in almost all cases of AML In the next few slides we will review some challenges in AML MRD detec:on by flow cytometry through a series of cases

25 Challenge 1: Blast phenotype in AML can be heterogeneous It has been long observed that abnormal blasts present in AML can have a very heterogeneous immunophenotype More than one LAIP may characterize a blast popula:on in AML At relapse or during/ater therapy, it is possible that the dominant clone will recede and that a minor clone will dominate Popula:on changes described in 31% of cases at relapse compared to diagnosis (Baer et al. 2001)

26 Example 1 Diagnosis WBCs Myeloid CD34+ CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 Normal WBCs Myeloblasts CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE

27 Myeloid CD34+.tc s. re s. WBCs in The immunophenotype of the blasts is not homogeneous CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 Myeloid CD34+ w w w WBCs CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5

28 WBCs Abnormali1es in this case Myeloid CD34+ CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 Abnormal intensity of an1gen expression (increased, decreased or absent). Dominant red popula:on: Increased CD34, CD33, CD13 Variably decreased CD38 Minor orange popula:on Decreased CD38 Asynchronous expression of an1gens associated with maturity with an1gens deno1ng immaturity CD15 expression on a minor subset of CD34++ blasts Homogeneous expression of an an1gen usually expressed at varying levels with matura1on Uniform CD13, CD33, and CD34 Expression of an1gens from other lineages. Minor orange popula:on CD5 expression

29 Post transplant peripheral blood, day % circula:ng CD34+ blasts WBCs Myeloid CD34+ CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 Normal WBCs Myeloblasts CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE The blasts in the peripheral blood are: A. Normal B. Abnormal

30 Post transplant peripheral blood, day 24 WBCs Myeloid CD34+ Diagnosis CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 WBCs Myeloid CD34+ CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 The blasts in the peripheral blood resemble: A. The dominant popula:on seen at diagnosis (red) B. The minor popula:on seen at diagnosis (orange) C. A combina:on of the two

31 Post transplant peripheral blood, day 24 WBCs Myeloid CD34+ CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 Day 28 post transplant marrow 0.8% CD34+ blasts WBCs CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE-Cy5 Normal for comparison WBCs Myeloblasts CD13 PE-Cy7 CD5 PE

34 Challenge 2: Prac1cal considera1ons How many events does it take to cons:tute and abnormal popula:on? What is the benefit of more colors?

35 Example 2 65 year old male with cytopenias Diagnos:c marrow for flow cytometry CD7 APC CD117 PE-Cy5 CD33 PE Normal for comparison CD7 APC CD117 PE-Cy5 CD33 PE

36 Abnormali1es in this case CD7 APC CD117 PE-Cy5 CD33 PE Abnormal intensity of an1gen expression (increased, decreased or absent). Decreased CD117 Increased CD34 Variably decreased CD38 Variably decreased HLA-DR Asynchronous expression of an1gens associated with maturity with an1gens deno1ng immaturity CD15 expression on CD34++ blasts Homogeneous expression of an an1gen usually expressed at varying levels with matura1on Bright homogeneous CD34 Homogeneous CD33 Expression of an1gens from other lineages.

39 Popula1on iden1fica1on Ga1ng strategy 1. CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate 2. CD34+ blasts colored red CD19 PE-CF total events collected WBC (viable only, nrbc excluded)

40 Popula1on iden1fica1on Ga1ng strategy 1. CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate 2. CD34+ blasts colored red 3. CD34 bright vs CD38 low CD19 PE-CF594 CD total events collected WBC (viable only, nrbc excluded)

41 Popula1on iden1fica1on Ga1ng strategy 1. CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate 2. CD34+ blasts colored red 3. CD34 bright vs CD38 low 4. CD34 vs CD15 demonstrates dysschronous an:gen expression 5. HLA-DR VS CD117 CD117 remains low, HLA-DR is even lower than was seen at diagnosis CD19 PE-CF594 CD34+ CD117 PE-Cy total events collected WBC (viable only, nrbc excluded) Abnormal cells are 37 total events 0.01% of the WBC

42 Popula1on iden1fica1on Ga1ng strategy 1. CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate 2. CD34+ blasts colored red 3. CD34 bright vs CD38 low 4. CD34 vs CD15 demonstrates dysschronous an:gen expression 5. HLA-DR VS CD117 CD117 remains low, HLA-DR is even lower than was seen at diagnosis CD19 PE-CF594 CD34+ CD117 PE-Cy total events collected WBC (viable only, nrbc excluded) Abnormal cells are 37 total events 0.01% of the WBC

43 How many events does it take to cons1tute an abnormal popula1on? Controversial Most studies required at least events that cluster :ghtly together with mul:ple an:body combina:ons. More colors increases your specificity as you have more an:body combina:ons to evaluate To detect an event occurring at 0.01% (1/10,000) CV of 5% if you collect 400 events/4 X 10 6 CV of 10% if you collect 100 events/1 X 10 6 CV of 20% if you collect 25 events/2.5 X 10 5 Sta*s*cal versus analy*c sensi*vity See Hedley and Keeney 2012 for a discussion of rare event analysis

44 What if you had fewer events in this case? total events viable WBC 200,000 total 100,000 total 50,000 total CD117 PE-Cy5 CD117 PE-Cy5 CD117 PE-Cy5 CD117 PE-Cy5

45 How many colors are adequate Studies evalua:ng MRD by flow have been reported to evaluate between 3 and 10 colors simultaneously In general, the more colors u:lized, the higher the sensi:vity for picking up an abnormal popula:on Olaru et al demonstrated that by increasing the number of colors form 4 to 6, a greater number of LAIPs could be detected. 6 color tube allowed detec:on of 47 different LAIPS All of the 53 AML samples studies had at least one LAIP 4 color tube allowed detec:on of only 30 LAIPS

46 What if you had fewer colors? Consider a tube with CD45, CD34, CD38 and CD15 2. CD34++/CD38 low progenitors 3. CD34++/CD15 variable abnormal progenitors 1. CD45 vs SSC defined blast gate With 4 colors, you can get partly there but cannot check expression of other markers (CD7, CD13, CD33, CD117, HLA-DR) to confirm. Albeit, 4 colors would probably work in this case with a well chosen an:body panel. We will explore this ques:on further in a later case

47 Challenge 3: Blast immunophenotype may shig Blast popula:ons may change immunophenotype with treatment failure or at relapse Reported in over half of AML cases in some studies Described in 91% of cases in one study Changes described include A shit in an:gen expression on a blast popula:on A change in the dominant popula:on seen (perhaps related to challenge 1) Markers reported to shit commonly include CD13, CD33, CD34 may be gained at relapse Loss of CD56 and CD19 has been reported at relapse The changes may prevent you from iden:fica:on of an abnormal blast popula:on if you are strictly direc:ng your search to find a LAIP seen at diagnosis Abnormal popula:ons can usually s:ll be iden:fied by using a different from normal approach.

49 Challenge 4: Understanding normal in res1ng and regenera1ve seings is cri1cal Understanding immunophenotypic changes that can arise with marrow regenera:on is cri:cal in dis:nguishing MRD from marrow regenera:on in the post chemotherapy sefng Several studies have detailed common LAIPS seen in AML and dis:nguished these from changes seen in normal and regenera:ng marrow Al-Mawali et al AJCP Olaru et al Cytometry Part B (Clinical Cytometry) Also important is understanding other normal popula:ons present in the blast gate so these are not confused for abnormal blasts Remember basophils and plasmacytoid dendri:c cells? Understanding how the AML MRD panels in your lab perform with normal specimens and with regenera:ng marrow is cri:cal before undertaking AML MRD tes:ng

58 Summary MRD is useful for prognos:ca:on in many hematopoie:c neoplasms including AML In AML, MRD has been proven to provide powerful prognos:c informa:on in both adult and pediatric popula:ons As we move forward MRD may impact risk adjusted therapeu:c strategies in AML Flow cytometry is currently applicable in most cases for MRD detec:on Currently applicable in more cases than molecular tes:ng although this may be shiting in the future Strategies include a difference from normal approach combined with iden:fying a LAIP

59 Summary Several unanswered ques:ons remain in AML MRD tes:ng by flow cytometry What is the best :me point to assess for MRD Controversial: Induc:on versus Consolida:on What is the most important threshold Range of 1% to any MRD Log reduc:on in abnormal cells What do you need to do if you want to bring AML MRD tes:ng into your lab Develop panels for MRD tes:ng At minimum 6 color: more colors=greater sensi:vity and specificity Must collect >500,000 events for adequate sensi:vity Get familiar with normal At bare minimum normal and 5-10 marrow regenera:on samples
