Biomarkers of bleeding and venous thromboembolism in patients with acute leukemia
Journal of Thrombosis and Haemostasis(2024)
摘要
Background
Coagulopathy and associated bleeding and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are major causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with acute leukemia. The underlying mechanisms of these complications have not been fully elucidated.
Objectives
To evaluate the associations between biomarker levels and bleeding and DVT in acute leukemia patients.
Patients/Method
We examined plasma levels of activators, inhibitors and biomarkers of the coagulation and fibrinolytic pathways in patients ≥18 years with newly diagnosed acute leukemia compared to normal controls. Multivariable regression models were used to examine the association of biomarkers with bleeding and DVT in acute leukemia patients. The study included 358 patients with acute leukemia (29 acute promyelocytic leukemia [APL], 253 non-APL acute myeloid leukemia [AML] and 76 acute lymphoblastic leukemia [ALL]), and 30 normal controls.
Results
Patients with acute leukemia had higher levels of extracellular vesicle (EV) tissue factor (TF) activity, phosphatidylserine-positive EVs, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), plasmin-antiplasmin complexes, cell-free DNA and lower levels of citrullinated histone H3-DNA complexes compared to normal controls. APL patients had the highest levels of EVTF activity and the lowest levels of tissue plasminogen activator among acute leukemia patients. There were 41 bleeding and 24 DVT events in acute leukemia patients. High EVTF activity was associated with increased risk of bleeding (sHR 2.30, 95%CI 0.99-5.31) whereas high PAI-1 was associated with increased risk of DVT (sHR 3.00, 95%CI 0.95-9.47) in these patients.
Conclusions
Our study shows alterations in several biomarkers in acute leukemia and identifies biomarkers associated with risk of bleeding and DVT.
