Detection of MYD88 and CXCR4 mutations in cell-free DNA of patients with IgM monoclonal gammopathies.

ABSTRACT: Liquid biopsyis being integrated into cancer diagnostics with profound therapeutic implications. However, its role in Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (WM) and IgM monoclonal gammopathies is still unclear. In this study, we evaluated the role of peripheral blood (PB) cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in characterizing the mutational status of MYD88 and CXCR4 of patients with IgM monoclonal gammopathies. Paired bone marrow (BM) tumor DNA (tDNA) and PB cfDNA samples from 98 patients (9 MGUS, 45 with WM in remission, 44 with smoldering WM, newly diagnosed or relapsed WM) and 10 controls with non-IgM monoclonal gammopathies were analyzed. Regarding MYD88L265P mutation, 76 patients had paired tDNA and cfDNA informative samples. Among patients with WM in remission, 65% harbored the MYD88L265P mutation, whereas the corresponding percentage among smoldering/newly diagnosed or relapsed WM was 92%. The overall concordance rate was 94% (72/76). For CXCR4 mutations, 65 patients had paired informative tDNA and cfDNA samples. The overall concordance rate was 90% (59/65). All controls had wild-type MYD88 and CXCR4. In conclusion, PB cfDNA is a useful, minimally invasive, cost-effective, and time-effective tool for the identification of the presence of MYD88 and CXCR4 mutations in patients with IgM monoclonal gammopathies avoiding unnecessary BM assessment.

Project description:We analyzed MYD88 and CXCR4 mutation status of 260 patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia or IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance using allele-specific real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Sanger sequencing, respectively. A subgroup of 119 patients was further studied with next-generation sequencing of 11 target genes (MYD88, CXCR4, ARID1A, KMT2D, NOTCH2, TP53, PRDM1, CD79B, TRAF3, MYBBP1A, and TNFAIP3). MYD88 (L265P) was found at diagnosis in 91% of patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia and in 60% of patients with IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance using allele-specific polymerase chain reaction analysis. MYD88 mutations other than the classical L265P (V217F, S219C and M232T) were found in four cases by next-generation sequencing. Waldenström macroglobulinemia patients with wild-type MYD88 had a distinct clinical phenotype characterized by less bone marrow infiltration (P=0.01) and more frequent extramedullary involvement (P=0.001) compared to patients with mutated MYD88 Patients with wild-type MYD88 did not show additional mutations in the other target genes. CXCR4 mutations were found by Sanger sequencing in 22% of patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia. With next-generation sequencing, a CXCR4 mutation was detected in 23% of patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia and 9% of those with IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance. Asymptomatic Waldenström macroglobulinemia patients harboring a CXCR4 mutation had a shorter treatment-free survival (51 months) than that of patients with wild-type CXCR4 (median not reached) (P=0.007). Analysis of variant allele frequencies indicated that CXCR4 mutations were present in the dominant clone in the majority of cases. Recurrent somatic mutations of KMT2D were found in 24% of patients with Waldenström macroglobulinemia and 5% of patients with IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance and were primarily subclonal.
