e20048 Background: No literature exists regarding whether hypomagnesemia at the time of diagnosis in Burkitt Lymphoma (BL) is associated with inferior survival. Methods: Patients with new diagnosis of BL who were seen at Mayo Clinic, MN from 2000-2019 with a serum magnesium level available prior to chemotherapy were included. Patients were allocated to two groups; Abnormal Magnesium Group (AMG), defined as a magnesium level < 1.7 mg/dL and Normal Magnesium Group (NMG), defined as ≥ 1.7 – 2.3mg/dL. Two-sided Wilcoxon rank sum test and Chi square/Fischer’s exact test were used to compare the continuous and categorical variables, respectively. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests were used to perform all time to event analysis which were done from time of treatment. Hazard ratios (HR) with confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using Cox-proportional hazards. Results: Of 90 patients with a diagnosis of BL, 42 patients had a magnesium level at or before time of diagnosis. The Table lists the baseline characteristics and significant findings of the AMG/NMG groups. The median follow-up was 30 months. Hypomagnesemia was predictive for inferior EFS at 30 months - 34.3% (95% CI: 8.7–74.0) for AMG and 79.3% (95% CI: 60.8-90.4) for NMG (p = 0.038). OS at 30 months for AMG was 42.9% (95% CI: 14.4-77.0) and for NMG was 93.7% (95% CI: 78.1-98.4%) (p = 0.002). Other parameters significant on univariate analysis included the Charlson Comorbidity Index (p = 0.034), creatinine (p = 0.009), and number of treatments (p = 0.048). In the multivariate analysis, creatinine (p = 0.005) and number of treatments (p = 0.004) were significant. Likelihood ratio testing of predictors associated with inferior OS were significant for hypomagnesemia (likelihood ratio 3.99, p = 0.046). Conclusions: Patients with hypomagnesemia at the time of BL diagnosis have inferior outcomes compared to BL patients with a normal magnesium level. Prospective studies are needed to confirm this finding and test Mg replacement strategies to mitigate the effects of hypomagnesemia. [Table: see text]
