Abstract:
:The effect of serum folate levels and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) genotype on complications and outcome of induction chemotherapy in 150 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was studied. Folate deficiency in 26% at baseline was more common in children with MTHFR 677 mutations. Folate deficient children had a higher incidence of neutropenia (p = 0.03), thrombocytopenia (p = 0.02) and febrile neutropenia (p = 0.01) and higher transfusion requirement during induction compared to folate sufficient children. Sepsis related induction deaths were more frequent in folate deficient children (p = 0.02) during induction. Children with 677 and 1298 mutations had a higher incidence of cytopenias (p = 0.01) and mucositis (p = 0.007), the risks of which increased with concomitant folate deficiency. A significant fall in folate levels was observed post-induction (p = 0.02), most markedly in mutant 677 genotypes. Multivariate analysis revealed associations of baseline folate deficiency with low counts at day 14 (p = 0.001) and MTHFR 1298 mutations with mucositis (p = 0.02).
