First case report of a NUP98-PMX1 rearrangement in de novo acute myeloid leukemia and literature review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The nucleoporin 98 (NUP98)-paired related homeobox 1 (PMX1) fusion gene, which results from t(1;11)(q23;p15), is rare in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Currently, only two cases of chronic myeloid leukemia in the accelerated phase or blast crisis and three cases of therapy-related AML have been reported. Here, we first report a patient with de novo AML carrying the NUP98-PMX1 fusion gene.

Case presentation

A 49-year-old man diagnosed with AML presented the karyotype 46,XY,t(1;11)(q23;p15)[20] in bone marrow (BM) cells. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis using dual-color break-apart probes showed the typical signal pattern. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis suggested the presence of the NUP98-PMX1 fusion transcript. The patient received idarubicin and cytarabine as induction chemotherapy. After 3 weeks, the BM aspirate showed complete remission, and the RT-PCR result for the NUP98-PMX1 fusion gene was negative. Subsequently, the patient received three cycles of high-dose Ara-c as consolidation chemotherapy, after which he underwent partially matched (human leukocyte antigen-DP locus mismatch) unrelated allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The follow-up period ended on September 30, 2020 (6 months after HSCT), and the patient exhibited no recurrence or transplantation-related complications.

Conclusion

This is the first report of a patient with de novo AML carrying the NUP98-PMX1 fusion gene. The reported case may contribute to a more comprehensive profile of the NUP98-PMX1 rearrangement, but mechanistic studies are warranted to fully understand the role of this fusion gene in leukemia pathogenesis.

Targeted gene sequencing and transcriptome sequencing reveal characteristics of NUP98 rearrangement in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:BackgroundNUP98 rearrangements (NUP98-r) are rare but overrepresented mutations in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. NUP98-r is often associated with chemotherapy resistance and a particularly poor prognosis. Therefore, characterizing pediatric AML with NUP98-r to identify aberrations is critically important.MethodsHere, we retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological features, genomic and transcriptomic landscapes, treatments, and outcomes of pediatric patients with AML.ResultsNine patients with NUP98-r mutations were identified in our cohort of 142 patients. Ten mutated genes were detected in patients with NUP98-r. The frequency of FLT3-ITD mutations differed significantly between the groups harboring NUP98-r and those without NUP98-r (P = 0.035). Unsupervised hierarchical clustering via RNA sequencing data from 21 AML patients revealed that NUP98-r samples clustered together, strongly suggesting a distinct subtype. Compared with that in the non-NUP98-r fusion and no fusion groups, CMAHP expression was significantly upregulated in the NUP98-r samples (P < 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively). Multivariate Cox regression analyses demonstrated that patients harboring NUP98-r (P < 0.001) and WT1 mutations (P = 0.030) had worse relapse-free survival, and patients harboring NUP98-r (P < 0.008) presented lower overall survival.ConclusionsThese investigations contribute to the understanding of the molecular characteristics, risk stratification, and prognostic evaluation of pediatric AML patients.

Prenatal diagnosis of a de novo tetrasomy 15q24.3-25.3: Case report and literature review.

Project description:BackgroundTerminal duplication on chromosome 15q is a rare chromosomal variation. Affected individuals show similar features such as growth dysplasia or the development of frontal bossing, body deformities, facial abnormalities, and genitourinary or cardiovascular disorders. However, it is not yet clear whether such 15q repeats lead to identifiable patterns of clinical abnormalities. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyze the prenatal diagnostic results and clinical manifestations of a fetus with 15q duplication and to summarize the literature.MethodsThe case was a fetus at 28 weeks of gestation. The risk of Down syndrome from second-trimester screening was 1/140. Prenatal ultrasound and amniocentesis were performed, and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) was used for genetic analysis.ResultsThe fetus had abnormal clinical features, including intracardiac echogenic focus in the left ventricle, an aberrant right subclavian artery, and growth delay. The fetal chromosomal karyotype was 46,XX,15q?,12q?,21pstk+, and CMA revealed a 10.163 Mb duplication at 15q24.3-q25.3. The couple chose to terminate the pregnancy after careful consideration.ConclusionsThe combination and rational application of cytogenetics technology and molecular genetics technology such as CMA will open up the field of clinical application and provide useful genetic counseling for parents of fetuses carrying such chromosomal duplications.

Project description:The myeloid and lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and PDGFRA gene rearrangements usually show a good response to Imatinib and are typically associated with a normal karyotype, occasionally exhibiting a secondary chromosomal abnormality associated with clonal evolution. Five variant translocations involving PDGFRA have been reported. Here, we report a rare case of therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia with PDGFRA rearrangement after chemotherapy for prior B lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). The patient had a history of BCR-ABL negative, hypodiploid B-ALL in complete remission after chemotherapy. However, 15 months later the patient developed acute myeloid leukemia with rapidly increasing eosinophilia, basophilia and a complex karyotype that included a novel t(4;14)(q12;q24). FIP1L1 was not associated with the PDGFRA rearrangement. The patient had a very aggressive clinical course, and died from the disease shortly after diagnosis. This is the first case of a primary therapy-related myeloid neoplasm with secondary PDGFRA rearrangement. The t(4:14)(q12;q24) is joining the growing list of the variant translocations involving PDGFRA.

Long-term molecular remission in a patient with acute myeloid leukemia harboring a new NUP98-LEDGF rearrangement.

Project description:A large variety of molecular rearrangements of the NUP98 gene have been described in the past decades (n = 72), involving fusion partners coding for different transcription factors, chromatin modifying enzymes, as well as various cytosolic proteins. Here, we report the case of an AML-M2 patient with a variant NUP98-LEDGF/PSIP1 gene fusion (N9-L10). In this patient, three different NUP98-LEDGF fusion mRNAs were characterized due to alternative splicing in LEDGF exon 11. Targeted high-throughput sequencing revealed the presence of IDH1, SRSF2, and WT1 additional pathogenic mutations. To improve the therapeutic monitoring, quantification of NUP98-LEDGF mRNA by real-time PCR was developed. Because of poor response to conventional chemotherapy, allogeneic stem cell transplantation was performed, followed by 20 cycles of azacitidine-based preemptive treatment of relapse. More than 31 months after diagnosis, corresponding to 25 months post SCT and 4 months after the last cycle of azacytidine, the patient is in complete molecular remission (undetectable NUP98-LEDGF mRNA transcripts). This study highlights the considerable variability in breakpoint location within both NUP98 and LEDGF, associated with alternative splicing affecting LEDGF. It also emphasizes the need to fully characterize the breakpoints within the two genes and the identification of all fusion mRNAs, particularly for the development of a molecular monitoring assay. All these data seem critical for the optimal management of NUP98-LEDGF + hematological malignancies commonly associated with a poor prognosis.

Alkaloid-based regimen is beneficial for acute myeloid leukemia resembling acute promyelocytic leukemia with NUP98/RARG fusion and RUNX1 mutation: A case report.

Project description:RationaleSome acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients present with features mimicking the classical hypergranular subtype of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) but without the typical promyelocytic leukemia/retinoic acid receptor α (PML/RARα) rearrangement. Herein, we report an AML patient resembling APL but with nucleoporin 98/retinoid acid receptor gamma gene (NUP98/RARG) fusion transcript and Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) mutation.Patient concernsAn 18-year-old male presented at the hospital with a diagnosis of AML.DiagnosesThe patient was diagnosed with bone marrow examination. Bone marrow smear displayed 90.5% promyelocytes. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis failed to detect the PML/RARα fusion transcript or RARα amplification. While real-time polymerase chain reaction showed positivity for the NUP98/RARG fusion transcript. G-banding karyotype analysis showed a normal karyotype.InterventionsThe patient showed resistance to arsenic trioxide and standard 3 + 7 chemotherapy, but eventually achieved complete remission through the Homoharringtonine, Cytarabine, and Aclarubicin chemotherapy.OutcomesThese measures resulted in a rapid response and disease control.LessonsAcute myeloid leukemia with the NUP98/RARG fusion gene and the RUNX1 mutation may be a special subtype of AML and may benefit from the alkaloid-based regimen.

De Novo Mutation in KMT2C Manifesting as Kleefstra Syndrome 2: Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Diagnosis of pediatric intellectual disability (ID) can be difficult because it is due to a vast number of established and novel causes. Here, we described a full-term female infant affected by Kleefstra syndrome-2 presenting with neurodevelopmental disorder, a history of hypotonia and minor face anomalies. A systematic literature review was also performed. The patient was a 6-year-old Caucasian female. In the family history there was no intellectual disability or genetic conditions. Auxological parameters at birth were adequate for gestational age. Clinical evaluation at 6 months revealed hypotonia and, successively, delay in the acquisition of the stages of psychomotor development. Auditory, visual, somatosensory, and motor-evoked potentials were normal. A brain MRI, performed at 9 months, showed minimal gliotic changes in bilateral occipital periventricular white matter. Neuropsychiatric control, performed at 5 years, established a definitive diagnosis of childhood autism and developmental delay. Molecular analysis of the exome revealed a novel KMT2C missense variant: c.9244C > T (p.Pro3082Ser) at a heterozygous state, giving her a diagnosis of Kleefstra syndrome 2. Parents did not show the variant. Literature review (four retrieved eligible studies, 10 patients) showed that all individuals had mild, moderate, or severe ID; language and motor delay; and autism. Short stature, microcephaly, childhood hypotonia and plagiocephaly were also present. Conclusion. Kleefstra syndrome 2 is a difficult diagnosis of a rare condition with a high clinical phenotypic heterogeneity. This study suggests that it must be taken in account in the work-up of an orphan diagnosis of intellectual disability and/or autism spectrum disorder.

Clinical Phenotype of De Novo <i>GNAO1</i> Mutation: Case Report and Review of Literature.

Project description:Mutations in the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein), α activating activity polypeptide O (GNAO1) gene have recently been described in 6 patients with early infantile epileptic encephalopathies. In the present study, we report the phenotype and the clinical course of a 4-year-old female with an epileptic encephalopathy (Ohtahara syndrome) and profound intellectual disability due to a de novo GNAO1 mutation (c.692A>G; p.Tyr231Cys). Ohtahara syndrome is a devastating early infantile epileptic encephalopathy that can be caused by mutations in different genes, now also including GNAO1. The mutation was found using a targeted next generation sequencing gene panel and demonstrates targeted sequencing as a powerful tool for identifying mutations in genes where only a few de novo mutations have been identified.

First Chinese patient with mental retardation-40 due to a <i>de novo</i> CHAMP1 frameshift mutation: Case report and literature review.

Project description:Mental retardation-40 (MRD40) is a rare autosomal dominant neurodevelopmental disorder with a poor prognosis that is caused by a heterozygous mutation in chromosome alignment maintaining phosphoprotein 1 (CHAMP1). It was previously considered a non-syndromic disease due to the lack of specific external features. Only limited international reports describing CHAMP1 mutations are currently available. The present case study was the first to report on a Chinese patient with MRD40. The patient presented with severe global development delay with significant craniofacial dysmorphia. Using trio whole-exome sequencing, a novel de novo frameshift mutation in CHAMP1, NM_032436.2: c.530delCinsTTT, was identified, which expands the spectrum of the known pathogenic variants. The present case report helps to improve the syndromic profile of the rare MRD40 disorder and provides an example for the clinical diagnosis of MRD40.

Atypical chronic myeloid leukemia BCR-ABL 1 negative: A case report and literature review.

Project description:Atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML), BCR-ABL1 negative is a rare myelodysplastic syndrome/myeloproliferative neoplasm for which no current standard of care exists. The blood smear of patients with aCML showed prominent immature granulocytosis, and granulocytic dysplasia. We admitted a 58-year-old man with splenomegaly, hyperleukocytosis, anemia, and thrombocytopenia; then cytology, cytogenetic and molecular biology analysis of bone morrow were performed and the diagnosis of aCML was made according to 2016 World Health Organization diagnostic criteria. The patient was initially treated by chemotherapy; the patient achieved an aggravation of anemia. This motivated the change of treatment.
