Multiple Simultaneous Infections With Nontuberculous Mycobacteria in the Setting of GATA2 Mutation and Myelodysplastic Syndrome.

ABSTRACT: GATA2 mutation can result in profoundly reduced monocytes, dendritic cells, natural killer cells, and B cells, and is associated with a predisposition for recurrent and disseminated nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections and myelodysplasias. Herein, we describe a unique case of 3 simultaneous disseminated NTM infections in a patient with GATA2 mutations.

Bloodstream infections with rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria.

Project description:BackgroundBloodstream infections (BSI) with rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM) resulted in recent nosocomial outbreaks predominantly in immunocompromised patients. A little is known about the clinical implications of RGM BSI with different species.MethodsWe conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study of patients with RGM BSI from November 2011 to December 2020. Demographic data, clinical presentation, laboratory and radiographic findings and microbiological characteristics were used to tabulate descriptive statistics. We performed a comparative analysis of patients with BSI due to Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABC) vs. other RGM.ResultsWe identified 32 patients with positive blood cultures for RGM, 4/32 (12.5%) were considered to have unclear significance. The most common source for RGM BSI was intravascular catheters (14/28, 50%). Compared to other sources, patients with catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) received a shorter course of antimicrobial therapy (median [IQR]: one month [0.37-2.25] vs. six months [2-12]), (P = 0.01). The most common species isolated were MABC (12/28, 42.9%), followed by Mycobacterium fortuitum group (6/28, 21.4%) and Mycobacterium chelonae (6/28, 21.4%). Compared to other RGM, MABC BSI was more likely to be secondary to skin and soft tissue infection, associated with longer hospital stay (P = 0.04) and higher death rates despite a higher number of antimicrobial agents used for empirical and directed therapy per patient.ConclusionMABC BSI is associated with an overall more resistant profile, longer hospital stay, and higher death rate despite a more aggressive therapy approach.

Infections and outbreaks of nontuberculous mycobacteria in hospital settings.

Project description:Purpose of review:Non-tuberculous mycobacterial [NTM] infections in the hospital setting are a complex and often challenging entity. The goal of this review is to discuss diagnostic and treatment strategies for established as well as emerging nosocomial NTM infections. Recent findings:NTM outbreaks have been documented in a variety of hospital settings. Contamination of medical devices or aqueous solutions is often implicated in the spread of infection. More recently, the slow grower M. chimaera has been reported in the setting of contaminated heater-cooler devices used for cardiopulmonary bypass and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. In addition, increases in medical tourism for cosmetic surgery have led to outbreaks of rapidly growing mycobacteria. Summary:Diagnosis and treatment of nosocomial NTM pose many challenges for the clinician. Surgical resection or debridement as well as combination antimycobacterial therapy are a mainstay in therapeutic management. Strict infection control and prevention practices are critical to the identification and cessation of outbreaks.

Pulmonary Infections with Nontuberculous Mycobacteria, Catalonia, Spain, 1994-2014.

Project description:In Spain, systematic reporting of pulmonary infections with nontuberculous mycobacteria is not mandatory. Therefore, to determine trends, we retrospectively identified cases for January 1994-December 2014 in Catalonia. Over the 21 years, prevalence increased and was associated with being male. Mycobacterium avium complex and M. abscessus prevalence increased; M. kansasii prevalence decreased.

Extrapulmonary Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Infections in Hospitalized Patients, United States, 2009-2014.

Project description:Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) cause pulmonary and extrapulmonary infections in susceptible persons. To characterize the epidemiology of skin and soft tissue (SST) and disseminated extrapulmonary infections caused by NTM in the United States, we used a large electronic health record database to examine clinical, demographic, and laboratory data for hospitalized patients with NTM isolated from extrapulmonary sources during 2009-2014. Using all unique inpatients as the denominator, we estimated prevalence and summarized cases by key characteristics. Of 9,196,147 inpatients, 831 had confirmed extrapulmonary NTM. The 6-year prevalence was 11 cases/100,000 inpatients; source-specific prevalence was 4.4 SST infections/100,000 inpatients and 3.7 disseminated infections/100,000 inpatients. NTM species varied across geographic region; rapidly growing NTM were most prevalent in southern states. Infection with Mycobacterium avium complex was more common among patients with concurrent HIV and fungal infection, a relevant finding because treatment is more effective for M. avium complex than for other NTM infections.

Simultaneous Monitoring of Mutation and Chimerism Using Next-Generation Sequencing in Myelodysplastic Syndrome.

Project description:Monitoring minimal residual disease (MRD) provides important information during treatment of hematologic malignancies. Chimerism analysis also provides key information after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have enabled identification of various mutations and quantification of mutant allele burden. In this study, we developed a new analytic algorithm to monitor chimerism applicable to NGS multi-gene panel in use to identify mutations of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We enrolled patients who were diagnosed with MDS and received allo-HSCT and their corresponding donors. Monitoring MRD by NGS assay was performed using 53 DNA samples by calculating mutant allele burden after treatment. For monitoring chimerism by NGS, we selected 121 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) after careful stepwise evaluation and calculated average donor allele burden. Data obtained from NGS were compared with bone marrow findings, chromosome analysis and short tandem repeat (STR)-based chimerism. SNP-based NGS chimerism analysis was accurate and even superior to conventional STR method by overcoming the various technical limitations of STR. In addition, simultaneous monitoring of mutation and chimerism using NGS could implement comprehensive pre- and post-HSCT monitoring of various clinical conditions such as complete donor chimerism, persistent mixed chimerism, early relapse, and even donor cell-derived diseases.

Somatic mutations in children with GATA2-associated myelodysplastic syndrome who lack other features of GATA2 deficiency.

Project description:Approximately 10% of children with primary myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) have germ line GATA2 mutations, leading to the proposal that all children with primary MDS and certain cytogenetic findings, including monosomy 7, be tested for germ line GATA2 mutations regardless of family history or other clinical features associated with GATA2 deficiency. In adults with familial GATA2-MDS, those with somatic mutations in ASXL1 experience rapid disease progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and poor prognosis after stem cell transplantation; however, the prevalence of somatic mutations in primary pediatric GATA2-MDS is unclear. Here, we studied a cohort of 8 pediatric patients with MDS and lacking additional GATA2-associated clinical features or significant family history and identified heterozygous germ line GATA2 mutations in 5 patients, including 1 with a normal karyotype. For those with GATA2-MDS, we screened for somatic mutations in genes with prognostic relevance in AML/MDS, using a targeted next-generation sequencing panel. Although no somatic mutations in ASXL1 were observed, somatic mutations were found in RUNX1, SETBP1, IKZF1, and CRLF2. One subject with deleterious mutations in RUNX1, SETBP1, and IKZF1 rapidly progressed to AML with disease that was refractory to treatment. Our findings confirm the importance of GATA2 testing in primary pediatric MDS, even in the absence of other clinical features of GATA2 deficiency. Further, similar to what has been observed in adults with GATA2-MDS, somatic mutations with potential prognostic effect occur in children with MDS associated with mutations in GATA2.
