Erdheim–Chester Disease and Acute Myeloid Leukemia with Mutated NPM1 in a Patient with Clonal Hematopoiesis: A Case Report

ABSTRACT: Background Erdheim–Chester Disease (ECD) is a clonal non-Langerhans histiocytosis, classified as a macrophage-dendritic cell neoplasm in the 2016 WHO classification. The exact cell of origin of ECD is unknown, although some limited evidence suggests that it arises from myeloid progenitors. Case Presentation A 43-year-old patient, diagnosed with BRAFV600E mutated ECD, developed NPM1+/FLT3+ acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with wild-type BRAF, 15 months after the initial ECD diagnosis. The patient received intensive chemotherapy plus midostaurin, followed by midostaurin maintenance. Six months into maintenance, the patient remains in complete remission with low-level measurable residual disease, whereas ECD shows a sustained partial metabolic response. Molecular karyotype at several distinct timepoints, namely ECD diagnosis, AML diagnosis, and following treatment of AML, highlighted a molecular signature, indicative of a persistent, underlying clonal hematopoiesis. Conclusion This case report suggests that ECD and AML might represent an expansion of two distinct clones in a background of clonal hematopoiesis, indicating their shared origin. Moreover, molecular karyotype might serve as a strong, inexpensive tool for revealing clonal hematopoiesis in cases of negative targeted next-generation sequencing. Finally, the moderate response of ECD to midostaurin suggests that kinase inhibition might have a potential role in ECD treatment.

High frequency of clonal hematopoiesis in Erdheim-Chester disease.

Project description:Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a clonal hematopoietic disorder characterized by the accumulation of foamy histiocytes within organs (in particular, frequent retroperitoneal involvement) and a high frequency of BRAFV600E mutations. Although ECD is not commonly recognized to have overt peripheral blood (PB) or bone marrow (BM) disease, we recently identified that ECD patients have a high frequency of a concomitant myeloid malignancy. We thus conducted a systematic clinical and molecular analysis of the BM from 120 ECD patients. Surprisingly, 42.5% of ECD patients (51 of 120) had clonal hematopoiesis whereas 15.8% of patients (19 of 120) developed an overt hematologic malignancy (nearly all of which were a myeloid neoplasm). The most frequently mutated genes in BM were TET2, ASXL1, DNMT3A, and NRAS. ECD patients with clonal hematopoiesis were more likely to be older (P < .0001), have retroperitoneal involvement (P = .02), and harbor a BRAFV600E mutation (P = .049) than those without clonal hematopoiesis. The presence of the TET2 mutation was associated with a BRAFV600E mutation in tissue ECD lesions (P = .0006) and TET2-mutant ECD patients were more likely to have vascular involvement than TET2 wild-type ECD patients. Clonal hematopoiesis mutations in ECD were detected in cells derived from CD34+CD38- BM progenitors and PB monocytes but less frequently present in PB B and T lymphocytes. These data identify a heretofore unrecognized high frequency of clonal hematopoiesis in ECD patients, reaffirm the development of additional high risk of myeloid neoplasms in ECD, and provide evidence of a BM-based precursor cell of origin for many patients with ECD.

Clonal evolution in relapsed NPM1 mutated acute myeloid leukemia

Project description:Mutations in the nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) gene are considered as a founder event in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To address the role of clonal evolution in relapsed NPM1 mutated (NPM1mut) AML, we applied high-resolution genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array profiling to detect copy number alterations (CNA) and uniparental disomies (UPD) and performed comprehensive gene mutation screening in 53 paired bone marrow/peripheral blood samples obtained at diagnosis and relapse. At diagnosis, 15 aberrations (CNAs, n=10; UPDs, n=5) were identified in 13 patients (25%), whereas at relapse 56 genomic alterations (CNAs, n=46; UPDs, n=10) were detected in 29 patients (55%) indicating an increase in genomic complexity. Recurrent aberrations acquired at relapse included deletions affecting tumor suppressor genes [ETV6 (n=3), TP53 (n=2), NF1 (n=2), WT1 (n=3), FHIT (n=2)] and homozygous FLT3 mutations acquired via UPD13q (n=7). DNMT3A mutations (DNMT3Amut) showed the highest stability (97%). Persistence of DNMT3Amut in 5 patients who lost NPM1mut at relapse suggests that DNMT3Amut may precede NPM1mut in AML pathogenesis. Of note, all relapse samples shared at least one genetic aberration with the matched primary AML sample implying common ancestral clones. In conclusion, our study reveals novel insights into clonal evolution in NPM1mut AML. Bone marrow or peripheral blood samples from diagnosis, remission and relapse of 53 NPM1 mutated AML patient were analyzed on the Affymetrix Genome-Wide Human SNP 6.0 Array. Raw data (CEL-Files) were transformed to genotyping files (CHP) with Genotyping Console Version 4.2 from Affymetrix. Bioinformatic evaluation of CNAs was performed using dChipSNP and circular binary segmentation .

Recurrent SETD2 mutation in NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:SETD2 is the only methyltransferase for H3K36me3, and our previous study has firstly demonstrated that it functioned as one tumor suppressor in hematopoiesis. Consistent with it, SETD2 mutation, which led to its loss of function, was identified in AML. However, the distribution and function of SETD2 mutation in AML remained largely unknown. Herein, we integrated SETD2-mutated AML cases from our center and literature reports, and found that NPM1 mutation was the most common concomitant genetic alteration with SETD2 mutation in AML, with its frequency even higher than MLL rearrangement and AML1-ETO. Though this result indicated the cooperation of SETD2 and NPM1 mutations in leukemogenesis, our functional study showed that SETD2 was required for the proliferation of NPM1-mutated AML cell line OCI-AML3, but not MLL-rearranged AML cell line THP-1, via maintaining its direct target NPM1 expression, which was just opposite to its role of tumor suppressor. Therefore, we speculated that SETD2 possibly had two different faces in distinct subtypes and stages of AML.

Acute myeloid leukemia derived from lympho-myeloid clonal hematopoiesis.

Project description:We studied acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with lympho-myeloid clonal hematopoiesis (LM-CH), defined by the presence of DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) mutations in both the myeloid and lymphoid T-cell compartment. Diagnostic, complete remission (CR) and relapse samples were sequenced for 34 leukemia-related genes in 171 DNMT3A mutated adult AML patients. AML with LM-CH was found in 40 patients (23%) and was associated with clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential years before AML, older age, secondary AML and more frequent MDS-type co-mutations (TET2, RUNX1 and EZH2). In 82% of AML patients with LM-CH, the preleukemic clone was refractory to chemotherapy and was the founding clone for relapse. Both LM-CH and non-LM-CH MRD-positive AML patients who achieved CR had a high risk of relapse after 10 years (75% and 75%, respectively) compared with patients without clonal hematopoiesis in CR with negative MRD (27% relapse rate). Long-term survival of patients with LM-CH was only seen after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We define AML patients with LM-CH as a distinct high-risk group of AML patients that can be identified at diagnosis through mutation analysis in T cells and should be considered for HSCT.

Clonal evolution patterns in acute myeloid leukemia with NPM1 mutation.

Project description:Mutations in the nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) gene are considered founder mutations in the pathogenesis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To characterize the genetic composition of NPM1 mutated (NPM1mut) AML, we assess mutation status of five recurrently mutated oncogenes in 129 paired NPM1mut samples obtained at diagnosis and relapse. We find a substantial shift in the genetic pattern from diagnosis to relapse including NPM1mut loss (n?=?11). To better understand these NPM1mut loss cases, we perform whole exome sequencing (WES) and RNA-Seq. At the time of relapse, NPM1mut loss patients (pts) feature distinct mutational patterns that share almost no somatic mutation with the corresponding diagnosis sample and impact different signaling pathways. In contrast, profiles of pts with persistent NPM1mut are reflected by a high overlap of mutations between diagnosis and relapse. Our findings confirm that relapse often originates from persistent leukemic clones, though NPM1mut loss cases suggest a second "de novo" or treatment-associated AML (tAML) as alternative cause of relapse.

Endoscopic Transsphenoidal Resection of Suprasellar Histiocytosis in a Patient with Erdheim-Chester Disease: A Case Report.

Project description:Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) is a rare systemic disease characterized by non-Langerhans histiocytosis. Pituitary involvement, often manifesting as diabetes insipidus, is the most common central nervous system (CNS) lesion. However, significant mass formation compressing the optic apparatus is rarely reported. We present a case of ECD-related suprasellar mass treated with an endoscopic transnasal approach, with emphasis on the surgical strategy and the intraoperative findings. The mass was fibrous, significantly hard, and strongly adhered to the optic nerves, causing visual impairment. A subtotal resection was performed with preserving the adhesion between the mass and the optic nerves, and her visual symptoms improved remarkably after surgery. We highlight the surgical procedure of ECD-related suprasellar mass, from an endoscopic point of view. Due to strong adhesion of the mass to the surrounding optic apparatus and perforators, complete resection may be harmful; judicious mass reduction with preserving such adhesion would contribute to better visual outcomes.

Erdheim-Chester Disease With Renal Involvement: A Case Report.

Project description:Erdheim-Chester disease is a type of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis. It is a rare, multisystem disorder with unknown etiology. Heterogeneity of the clinical symptoms makes the diagnosis challenging. On the other hand, knowing the signs and radiological findings of the disease helps to establish a correct diagnosis. In this article, we present a 51-year-old male patient with skeletal and urinary system manifestations who finally underwent right nephrectomy due to renal insufficiency. The diagnosis was suspected by the retroperitoneal infiltrative process and radiological findings of the tubular bones. Erdheim-Chester disease diagnosis was confirmed with CD68(+) CD1a(-) histiocytes detected by immunohistochemical analysis of the nephrectomy specimen.

Characterization and dynamics of specific T cells against nucleophosmin-1 (NPM1)-mutated peptides in patients with NPM1-mutated acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Nucleophosmin(NPM1)-mutated protein, a leukemia-specific antigen, represents an ideal target for AML immunotherapy. We investigated the dynamics of NPM1-mutated-specific T cells on PB and BM samples, collected from 31 adult NPM1-mutated AML patients throughout the disease course, and stimulated with mixtures of 18 short and long peptides (9-18mers), deriving from the complete C-terminal of the NPM1-mutated protein. Two 9-mer peptides, namely LAVEEVSLR and AVEEVSLRK (13.9-14.9), were identified as the most immunogenic epitopes. IFN?-producing NPM1-mutated-specific T cells were observed by ELISPOT assay after stimulation with peptides 13.9-14.9 in 43/85 (50.6%) PB and 34/80 (42.5%) BM samples. An inverse correlation between MRD kinetics and anti-leukemic specific T cells was observed. Cytokine Secretion Assays allowed to predominantly and respectively identify Effector Memory and Central Memory T cells among IFN?-producing and IL2-producing T cells. Moreover, NPM1-mutated-specific CTLs against primary leukemic blasts or PHA-blasts pulsed with different peptide pools could be expanded ex vivo from NPM1-mutated AML patients or primed in healthy donors. We describe the spontaneous appearance and persistence of NPM1-mutated-specific T cells, which may contribute to the maintenance of long-lasting remissions. Future studies are warranted to investigate the potential role of both autologous and allogeneic adoptive immunotherapy in NPM1-mutated AML patients.

Erdheim Chester disease in a patient with Burkitt lymphoma: a case report and review of literature.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Erdheim Chester disease (ECD) is a rare, non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis characterized by widespread tissue infiltration by CD68-positive, CD1a-negative foamy histiocytes. ECD can be difficult to identify, and diagnosis relies on the presence of histiocytes with certain histologic and immunophenotypic features in an appropriate clinical and radiologic setting. Clinical signs and symptoms are variable depending on which organ systems are involved. Most patients have at least skeletal involvement with bone pain as well as fatigue. Other common manifestations include diabetes insipidus, cardiac, periaortic, or retro-orbital infiltration/fibrosis, kidney impairment, xanthelasmas, among others. CASE PRESENTATION:Herein, we describe a case of BRAF-mutation positive ECD in a patient with Burkitt lymphoma, and we review recent literature. CONCLUSION:Underlying BRAF and other MAPK pathway mutations are identified in approximately 50% of cases of ECD, which aids in diagnosis as well as enables novel targeted treatments. ECD patients have an increased risk of myeloid neoplasms; however, unlike other histiocytoses, an association with lymphoproliferative disorders has not been recognized.
