Acquired TET2 mutation-linked clonal hematopoiesis in FPD/AML patient led to the development of pre-leukemic clone resulting independently in T2-ALL and AML-M0.

ABSTRACT: Germline RUNX1 mutations are found in familial platelet disorders with predisposition to acute myelogenous leukemia (FPD/AML). This very rare disease is characterized by thrombocytopenia, platelet dysfunction and a 35% lifetime risk of developing MDS/AML and in rare cases also T-ALL. Here, we focus on a case of a man with a familial history of RUNX1 R174Q mutation who developed at the age of 42 years an EGIL T2-ALL and two years after remission an AML-M0. To investigate whether initial and relapsed leukemic blasts originated from the same clone, we performed CGH array and WES on both blasts populations. In both T2-ALL and AML-M0 samples, CGH array revealed loss of 1p36.32-23 and 17q11.2 and nine other small deletions. Both AML-M0 and T2-ALL demonstrated clonal rearrangements of both TCR (V9-J1-1) and TCR (D2-J1 and D2-J3). 18 genes were found by WES to be mutated in the original clone at a frequency of more than 40%. Additional variants were identified only in T2-ALL or in AML-M0 evoking the existence of a common original clone. MiSeq technology performed on peripheral blood-derived CD34+ cells five years prior T2-ALL development revealed only missense TET2 P1962T mutation at a frequency of 1% suggesting that this mutation in association with germline RUNX1 R174Q mutation led to amplification of a hematopoietic clone susceptible to acquire other transforming alterations. Identification of clonal hematopoiesis with acquired mutations at low frequency in hematopoietic progenitors before leukemia development could clearly serve as a marker of pre-leukemic state and might be helpful in patient care.
