Project description:Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (tMN) develop after exposure to cytotoxic and radiation therapy, and due to their adverse prognosis, it is of paramount interest to identify patients at high risk. The presence of clonal hematopoiesis has been shown to increase the risk of developing tMN. The value of analyzing hematopoietic stem cells harvested at leukapheresis before autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) with next-generation sequencing and immunophenotyping represents potentially informative parameters that have yet to be discovered. We performed a nested case-control study to elucidate the association between clonal hematopoiesis, mobilization potential, and aberrant immunophenotype in leukapheresis products with the development of tMN after ASCT. A total of 36 patients with nonmyeloid disease who were diagnosed with tMN after treatment with ASCT were included as case subjects. Case subjects were identified from a cohort of 1130 patients treated with ASCT and matched with 36 control subjects who did not develop tMN after ASCT. Case subjects were significantly poorer mobilizers of CD34+ cells at leukapheresis (P = .016), indicating that these patients possess inferior bone marrow function. Both clonal hematopoiesis (odds ratio, 5.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.8-19.1; P = .003) and aberrant expression of CD7 (odds ratio, 6.6; 95% confidence interval, 1.6-26.2; P = .004) at the time of ASCT were associated with an increased risk of developing tMN after ASCT. In conclusion, clonal hematopoiesis, present at low variant allele frequencies, and aberrant CD7 expression on stem cells in leukapheresis products from patients with nonmyeloid hematologic cancer hold potential for the early identification of patients at high risk of developing tMN after ASCT.

Project description:Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) are aggressive malignancies in need of effective therapies. The BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax represents a paradigm shift in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. However, the effectiveness of venetoclax has not been studied in a large cohort of t-MN. We retrospectively analyzed 378 t-MN patients, of which 96 (25.4%, 47 therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia, 1 therapy-related chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, 48 therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome) received venetoclax. Median interval from t-MN to venetoclax initiation was 2.9 (Interquartile range [IQR] 0.7-12) months, and patients received a median of 3 (IQR 1-4) cycles. The composite complete remission (CRc) rate, median progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were 39.1%, 4.9 months, and 7 months, respectively. The upfront use of venetoclax and achieving CRc were associated with improved survival, whereas the presence of Chromosome 7 abnormalities was associated with an inferior survival. Neither the TP53-status nor the percent bone marrow blast predicted the likelihood of CRc or survival. Paired genetic analysis performed at venetoclax initiation and failure did not show the evidence of the selection of the TP53-mutated clone. In a propensity-matched analysis, the use of venetoclax-based regimen as the first-line therapy was associated with a superior survival compared to hypomethylating agent (HMA)-based first-line therapy (9.4 vs. 6.1 months, p = .01). We conclude that the upfront use of venetoclax with HMA improved survival, though PFS and OS remain poor. As the phenotype at diagnosis or the percent blasts did not predict outcomes, venetoclax should be studied in all t-MN phenotypes.

Project description:Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) are aggressive leukemia that develops as a complication of prior exposure to DNA-damaging agents. Clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS) is a precursor of de novo myeloid neoplasms. Characteristics of CCUS that develop following cytotoxic therapies (therapy-related clonal cytopenia, t-CC) and outcomes following t-CC have not been described. We identified 33 patients with t-CC and compared to a cohort of the WHO-defined t-MN (n = 309). t-CC had a distinct genetic and cytogenetic profile: pathogenic variants (PV) in TET2 and SRSF2 were enriched in t-CC, whereas TP53 PV was more common in t-MN. Ten (30%) t-CC patients developed a subsequent t-MN, with a cumulative incidence of 13%, 23%, and 50% at 6 months, 1, and 5 years, respectively. At t-MN progression, 44% of evaluable patients had identifiable clonal evolution. The median survival following t-CC was significantly superior compared all t-MN phenotype including t-MDS with <5% bone marrow blasts (124.5 vs. 16.3 months, P < 0.001) respectively. The presence of cytogenetic abnormality and the absence of variants in DNMT3A, TET2, or ASXL1 (DTA-genes) were associated with a higher likelihood of developing a subsequent t-MN and an inferior survival. We describe a putative precursor entity of t-MN with distinct features and outcomes.

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can be late complications following mutagenic treatment. Limited data is available on the outcome of patients developing therapy-related MDS and AML after treatment for multiple myeloma (MM). We identified 250 patients with therapy-associated MDS or AML in the Duesseldorf MDS registry. Of those, 50 patients were previously diagnosed with multiple myeloma (mm-MDS/AML). We compared them to patients with de novo MDS (n = 4862) and to patients with MDS following other underlying diseases (tMDS) (n = 200). mm-MDS patients and tMDS patients showed similar karyotypes and degrees of cytopenia. However, mm-MDS patients had significantly higher blast counts and more often belonged to the high-risk group according to the International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) (both p < 0.05). Although the rate of progression to AML was similar in mm-MDS and tMDS, both transformed significantly more often than de novo MDS (p < 0.05). Median overall survival of patients with mm-MDS (13 months; range: 1-99) and tMDS (13 months; range 0-160) was also similar yet significantly shorter than patients with de novo MDS (32 months; range 0-345 months; p < 0.05). Furthermore, survival of mm-MDS patients was not affected by myeloma activity. Despite significantly more high-risk disease and higher blast cell counts, myeloma-associated MDS-patients show features akin to other tMDS. Survival is similar to other tMDS and irrespective of myeloma remission status or transformation to AML. Thus, patient outcome is not determined by competing clones but rather by MDS governing the stem cell niche.

Project description:TET2 and DNMT3A mutations are frequently identified in T-cell lymphomas of T follicular helper cell origin (TCL-TFH), clonal hematopoiesis (CH), and myeloid neoplasms (MNs). The relationships among these 3 entities, however, are not well understood. We performed comprehensive genomic studies on paired bone marrow and tissue samples as well as on flow cytometry-sorted bone marrow and peripheral blood subpopulations from a cohort of 22 patients with TCL-TFH to identify shared CH-type mutations in various hematopoietic cell compartments. Identical mutations were detected in the neoplastic T-cell and myeloid compartments of 15 out of 22 patients (68%), including TET2 (14/15) and DNMT3A (10/15). Four patients developed MNs, all of which shared CH-type mutations with their TCL-TFH; additional unique genetic alterations were also detected in each patient's TCL-TFH and MN. These data demonstrate that CH is prevalent in patients with TCL-TFH and that divergent evolution of a CH clone may give rise to both TCL-TFH and MNs.

Project description:Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) may occur as a late effect of cytotoxic therapy for a primary malignancy or autoimmune diseases in susceptible individuals. We studied the development of somatic mutations in t-MN, using a collection of follow-up samples from 14 patients with a primary hematologic malignancy, who developed a secondary leukemia (13 t-MN and 1 t-acute lymphoblastic leukemia), at a median latency of 73 months (range 18-108) from primary cancer diagnosis.Using Sanger and next generation sequencing (NGS) approaches we identified 8 mutations (IDH1 R132H, ASXL1 Y591*, ASXL1 S689*, ASXL1 R693*, SRSF2 P95H, SF3B1 K700E, SETBP1 G870R and TP53 Y220C) in seven of thirteen t-MN patients (54%), whereas the t-ALL patient had a t(4,11) translocation, resulting in the KMT2A/AFF1 fusion gene. These mutations were then tracked backwards in marrow samples preceding secondary leukemia occurrence, using pyrosequencing and a NGS protocol that allows the detection of low variant allele frequencies (≥0.1%).Somatic mutations were detectable in the BM harvested at the primary diagnosis, prior to any cytotoxic treatment in three patients, while they were not detectable and apparently acquired by the t-MN clone in five patients.These data show that clonal evolution in t-MN is heterogeneous, with some somatic mutations preceding cytotoxic treatment and possibly favoring leukemic development.

Project description:Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) are characterized by aggressive features and a dismal prognosis. Recent evidence suggests a higher incidence of t-MN in individuals harboring clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP). In order to gain insight into CHIP-driven malignant progression, we gathered data from ten published reports with available detailed patient characteristics at the time of primary malignancy and t-MN development. Detailed clinical and molecular information on primary malignancy and t-MN were available for 109 patients: 43% harbored at least one somatic mutation at the time of the primary malignancy. TET2 and TP53 mutations showed an increasing variant allele frequency from CHIP to t-MN. ASXL1-associated CHIP significantly correlated with the emergence of TET2 and CEBPA mutations at t-MN, as well as U2AF1-driven CHIP with EZH2 mutation and both IDH2 and SRSF2-driven CHIP with FLT3 mutation. DNMT3A-driven CHIP correlated with a lower incidence of TP53 mutation at t-MN. In contrast, TP53-driven CHIP correlated with a complex karyotype and a lower tendency to acquire new mutations at t-MN. Patients with multiple myeloma as their first malignancy presented a significantly higher rate of TP53 mutations at t-MN. The progression from CHIP to t-MN shows different scenarios depending on the genes involved. A deeper knowledge of CHIP progression mechanisms will allow a more reliable definition of t-MN risk.

Project description:Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells are an emerging therapy for refractory lymphomas. Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), the preferential outgrowth of mutated bone marrow progenitors, is enriched in lymphoma patients receiving CAR-T cells. CAR-T therapy requires conditioning chemotherapy and often induces systemic inflammatory reactions, both of which have been shown to promote expansion of CH clones. Thus, we hypothesized that pre-existing CH clones could expand during CAR-T cell treatment. We measured CH at 154 timepoints longitudinally sampled from 26 patients receiving CD30.CAR-T therapy for CD30+ lymphomas on an investigational protocol (NCT02917083). Pre-treatment CH was present in 54% of individuals and did not correlate with survival outcomes or inflammatory toxicities. Longitudinal tracking of single clones in individual patients revealed distinct clone growth dynamics. Initially small clones, defined as VAF <1%, expanded following CAR-T administration, compared with relatively muted expansions of larger clones (3.37-fold vs. 1.20-fold, P = 0.0014). Matched clones were present at low magnitude in the infused CD30.CAR-T product for all CH cases but did not affect the product's immunophenotype or transduction efficiency. As cellular immunotherapies expand to become frontline treatments for hematological malignancies, our data indicates CAR-T recipients could be enriched for CH, and further longitudinal studies centered on CH complications in this population are warranted.
