Project description:Concomitant multiple hematological malignancies are rare and challenging to diagnose. They represent a unique model to explore the multistep process of oncogenesis. Here, we report the unique case of 62 years-old man with cardiac tamponade as first manifestation of ALK negative anaplastic large T-cell lymphoma (ALK- ALCL). Following chemotherapy, he showed one year later ALK- ALCL concurrent with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL-NOS) and acute monoblastic leukemia (AML-M5) in a single excisional lymph node. Clinical, pathological and multiomics data (whole exome and targeted deep sequencing, spatial transcriptomics) were analyzed. Two somatic TET2 gene mutations at high allele burden were shared by all three neoplasms, uninvolved bone marrow and CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Secondary hits characterized each malignancy. ALK- ALCL (pericardial and nodal) showed TP53 and LYN deleterious mutations, DLBCL-NOS disclosed KRAS, STAT6, CREBBP and ATM alterations and AML-M5 had JAK3, PPM1D, NF1 and KMT2D mutations and a complex karyotype. Furthermore we demonstrated that spatial transcriptomics can identify the specific signatures of the three neoplasms. Two TET2 mutations at high allele burden in CD34+HSPCs conferred the favorable soil and the genotoxic stress from chemotherapy likely contributed to multiple hematological malignancies oncogenesis. Our case confirms the pathogenetic link between clonal hematopoiesis and cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma, so far only suspected. Most importantly, this is the first study to document the oncogenic phylogeny of concurrent T-, B-, and myeloid neoplasms from CD34+ HSPCs clone(s) in a single specimen.

Project description:The potential for more than one distinct hematolymphoid neoplasm to arise from a common mutated stem or precursor cell has been proposed based on findings in primary human malignancies. Particularly, angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), which shares a somatic mutation profile in common with other hematopoietic malignancies, has been reported to occur alongside myeloid neoplasms or clonal B-cell proliferations, with identical mutations occurring in more than one cell lineage. Here we report such a case of an elderly woman who was diagnosed over a period of 8 years with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, polycythemia vera, and AITL, each harboring identical somatic mutations in multiple genes. Overall, at least five identical nucleotide mutations were shared across multiple specimens, with two identical mutations co-occurring at variable variant allele frequencies in all three specimen types. These findings lend credence to the theory that a common mutated stem cell could give rise to multiple neoplasms through parallel hematopoietic differentiation pathways.

Project description:Twist1 and Twist2 (Twist1-2) are two transcription factors, members of the basic helix-loop-helix family, that have been well established as master transcriptional regulators of embryogenesis and developmental programs of mesenchymal cell lineages. Their role in oncogenesis in epithelium-derived cancer and in epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition has also been thoroughly characterized. Recently, emerging evidence also suggests a key role for Twist1-2 in the function and development of hematopoietic cells, as well as in survival and development of numerous hematological malignancies. In this review, we summarize the latest data that depict the role of Twist1-2 in monocytes, T cells and B lymphocyte activation, and in associated hematological malignancies.

Project description:Treosulfan-based conditioning prior to allogeneic transplantation has been shown to have myeloablative, immunosuppressive, and antineoplastic effects associated with reduced non-relapse mortality (NRM) in adults. Therefore, we prospectively evaluated the safety and efficacy of treosulfan-based conditioning in children with hematological malignancies in this phase II trial. Overall, 65 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (35.4%), acute myeloid leukemia (44.6%), myelodysplastic syndrome (15.4%), or juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (4.6%) received treosulfan intravenously at a dose of 10 mg/m2/day (7.7%), 12 g/m2/day (35.4%), or 14 g/m2/day (56.9%) according to their individual body surface area in combination with fludarabine and thiotepa. The incidence of complete donor chimerism at day +28 was 98.4% with no primary and only one secondary graft failure. At 36 months, NRM was only 3.1%, while relapse incidence was 21.7%, and overall survival was 83.0%. The cumulative incidence of acute graft-vs.-host disease was 45.3% for grades I-IV and 26.6% for grades II-IV. At 36 months, 25.8% overall and 19.4% moderate/severe chronic graft-vs.-host disease were reported. These data confirm the safe and effective use of treosulfan-based conditioning in pediatric patients with hematological malignancies. Therefore, treosulfan/fludarabine/thiotepa can be recommended for myeloablative conditioning in children with hematological malignancies.

Project description:A prospective study of 312 patients [194 with multiple myeloma (MM) and 118 with lymphomas (LYMPH)] receiving high-dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) was conducted. Ficolins are innate immune defense factors, able to distinguish between "self" "abnormal self," and "non-self" and contribute to the elimination of the last two by direct opsonization and/or initiation of complement activation via the lectin pathway. Concentrations of ficolin-1, ficolin-2, and ficolin-3 in serially taken serum samples were determined as were the polymorphisms of the corresponding (FCN1, FCN2, and FCN3) genes. Serum samples were collected before conditioning chemotherapy, before HSCT, and once weekly post-HSCT (four to five samples in total); some patients were also sampled at 1 and/or 3 months post-transplantation. The control group (C) consisted of 267 healthy unrelated individuals. Median ficolin-1 and ficolin-2 (but not ficolin-3) levels in MM patients' sera taken before chemotherapy were lower (and correspondingly frequencies of the lowest concentrations were higher) compared with controls. That appeared to be associated with the malignant disease itself rather than with post-HSCT complications (febrile neutropenia, infections accompanied, or not with bacteremia). Higher frequencies of the FCN1 genotype G/A-C/C-G/G (corresponding to polymorphisms at positions -542, -144, and +6658, respectively) and FCN2 gene heterozygosity for the -857 C>A polymorphism were found among patients diagnosed with MM compared with the C group. Furthermore, FCN2 G/G homozygosity (-557 A>G) was found more frequently and heterozygosity G/T at +6424 less frequently among LYMPH patients than among the healthy subjects. Heterozygosity for +1637delC mutation of the FCN3 gene was more common among patients diagnosed with lymphomas who experienced hospital infections. Although no evidence for an association of low ficolin-1 or ficolin-2 with infections during neutropenia following chemotherapy before HSCT was found, we observed a possible protective effect of ficolins during follow-up.

Project description:Several genetic alterations characteristic of leukemia and lymphoma have been detected in the blood of individuals without apparent hematological malignancies. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) provides a unique resource for comprehensive discovery of mutations and genes in blood that may contribute to the clonal expansion of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. Here, we analyzed blood-derived sequence data from 2,728 individuals from TCGA and discovered 77 blood-specific mutations in cancer-associated genes, the majority being associated with advanced age. Remarkably, 83% of these mutations were from 19 leukemia and/or lymphoma-associated genes, and nine were recurrently mutated (DNMT3A, TET2, JAK2, ASXL1, TP53, GNAS, PPM1D, BCORL1 and SF3B1). We identified 14 additional mutations in a very small fraction of blood cells, possibly representing the earliest stages of clonal expansion in hematopoietic stem cells. Comparison of these findings to mutations in hematological malignancies identified several recurrently mutated genes that may be disease initiators. Our analyses show that the blood cells of more than 2% of individuals (5-6% of people older than 70 years) contain mutations that may represent premalignant events that cause clonal hematopoietic expansion.

Project description:Recent evidence points to the embryonic emergence of some tissue-resident innate immune cells, such as B-1a lymphocytes, prior to and independently of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). However, whether the full hematopoietic repertoire of embryonic HSCs initially includes these unique lineages of innate immune cells has been difficult to assess due to lack of clonal assays that identify and assess HSC precursor (pre-HSC) potential. Here, by combining index sorting of single embryonic hemogenic precursors with in vitro HSC maturation and transplantation assays, we analyze emerging pre-HSCs at the single-cell level, revealing their unique stage-specific properties and clonal lineage potential. Remarkably, clonal pre-HSCs detected between E9.5 and E11.5 contribute to the complete B cell repertoire, including B-1a lymphocytes, revealing a previously unappreciated common precursor for all B cell lineages at the pre-HSC stage and a second embryonic origin for B-1a lymphocytes.

Project description:BackgroundAnti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) prophylaxis reduces graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) incidence. This meta-analysis aimed to explore the long-term efficacy of ATG and the influencing factors in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).MethodsPubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases were searched for the relevant studies published up to August 2020. Data from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on ATG prophylaxis for GVHD prevention in allo-HSCT patients were extracted.ResultsA total of eight relevant RCTs (1,348 patients) were included. ATG significantly reduced the incidence of grade III-IV aGVHD (P = 0.001) and cGVHD (P < 0.001). ATG significantly improved the GVHD relapse-free survival (GRFS) (P < 0.001). The immunosuppressive regimen (number and dose of immunosuppressants) was significantly reduced when using ATG (P = 0.005). Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation was high in patients receiving ATG (P = 0.003). No significant differences were detected in relapses, overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS), and non-relapse mortality (NRM) between the ATG and no ATG groups. Subgroup analyses revealed that the donor type and ATG formulation might be the possible sources of heterogeneity among the included studies. Meta-regression analysis showed that the cumulative dose of ATG did not affect GVHD, OS, relapse, RFS, and NRM.ConclusionAlthough ATG had no significant effect on relapse, RFS, and NRM, it significantly reduced the occurrence and severity of GVHD, improved the GRFS, and reduced the number and dose of immunosuppressants in patients undergoing allo-HSCT.

Project description:Molecular targeting of cancer stem cells (CSCs) has therapeutic potential for efficient treatment of cancer, although relatively few specific targets have been identified so far. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) was recently shown to regulate the tumorigenic capacity of glioma stem cells under hypoxic conditions. Surprisingly, we found that, under normoxia, HIF1? signaling was selectively activated in the stem cells of mouse lymphoma and human acute myeloid leukemia (AML). HIF1a shRNA and HIF inhibitors abrogated the colony-forming unit (cfu) activity of mouse lymphoma and human AML CSCs. Importantly, the HIF-inhibitor echinomycin efficiently eradicated mouse lymphoma and serially transplantable human AML in xenogeneic models by preferential elimination of CSCs. Hif1? maintains mouse lymphoma CSCs by repressing a negative feedback loop in the Notch pathway. Taken together, our results demonstrate an essential function of Hif1?-Notch interaction in maintaining CSCs and provide an effective approach to target CSCs for therapy of hematological malignancies.
