Project description:Mixed lineage leukemia (MLL/KMT2A) rearrangements (MLL-r) are one of the most frequent chromosomal aberrations in acute myeloid leukemia. We evaluated the function of Meningioma 1 (MN1), a co-factor of HOXA9 and MEIS1, in human and murine MLL-rearranged leukemia by CRISPR-Cas9 mediated deletion of MN1. MN1 was required for in vivo leukemogenicity of MLL positive murine and human leukemia cells. Loss of MN1 inhibited cell cycle and proliferation, promoted apoptosis and induced differentiation of MLL-rearranged cells. Expression analysis and chromatin immunoprecipitation with sequencing from previously reported data sets demonstrated that MN1 primarily maintains active transcription of HOXA9 and HOXA10, which are critical downstream genes of MLL, and their target genes like BCL2, MCL1 and Survivin. Treatment of MLL-rearranged primary leukemia cells with anti-MN1 siRNA significantly reduced their clonogenic potential in contrast to normal CD34+ hematopoietic progenitor cells, suggesting a therapeutic window for MN1 targeting. In summary, our findings demonstrate that MN1 plays an essential role in MLL fusion leukemias and serve as a therapeutic target in MLL-rearranged acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Mixed-phenotype leukemia (MPAL) is a type of acute leukemia in which the blast population shows mixed features of myeloid, T-lymphoid, and/or B-lymphoid differentiation. MPALs are rare and carry a poor prognosis, thus, often pose both a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Conventionally, the diagnosis of MPAL requires either a single blast population with a lineage-defining phenotypic expression of multiple lineages (myeloid, B-cell and/or T-cell) (biphenotypic) or two distinct blast populations that each independently satisfy criteria for designation as AML, B-ALL, and/or T-ALL (bilineage). Given the rarity of MPAL, minimal studies have been performed to describe the genomic landscape of these neoplasms. IRB approval was obtained. Central MCC database was searched for any patient with a diagnosis of acute undifferentiated leukemia (AUL), acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage (ALAL), and MPAL. All patient diagnoses were manually reviewed by a hematopathologist to confirm the diagnosis of MPAL. Genomic and molecular data were collated from the EMR and bioinformatically from MCC genomics repositories. Twenty-eight patients with MPAL were identified. Thirteen were female and 15 were male. Average age was 56 years old (range = 28-81). Ten cases were biclonal and 18 were biphenotypic. Diagnoses were as follows: B/myeloid (n = 18), T/myeloid (n = 9), and T/B (n = 1). Cytogenetic analysis (Karyotype +/- FISH) was available for 27 patients. The most frequent recurrent abnormalities were complex karyotype (n = 8), BCR/ABL1 translocation (n = 6), Del 5q/-5 (n = 4), Polysomy 21 (n = 4). Mutational analysis was available for 18 patients wherein mutations were detected in 45 unique genes. The most frequently mutated genes were TP53 (7), RUNX1 (6), WT1 (4), MLL2 (3), FLT3 (3), CBL (2), ASXL1 (2), TET2 (2), MAP3K6 (2), MLL (2), and MAP3K1 (2). Targetable or potentially targetable biomarkers were found in 56% of cases. Overall survival was 19.5 months (range = 0-70 m). Ten patients were treated with an allogeneic stem cell transplant and had superior outcome (p = 0.0013). In one the largest series of MPAL cases to date, we corroborate previous findings with enriched detection of RUNX1 and FLT3-ITD mutations along with discovery of unreported mutations (MAP3K) that may be amenable to therapeutic manipulation. We also report the frequent occurrence of AML with MDS-related changes (AML-MRC)-defining cytogenetic abnormalities (26%). Finally, we show that those patients that received stem cell transplant had a better overall survival. Our findings support the need to genomically profile MPAL cases to exploit opportunities for targeted therapies in this orphan disease with dismal prognosis.

Project description:Background/aimMixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) is a rare hematologic malignancy in which the leukemic cells cannot be assigned to any specific lineage. The lack of well-defined, pathogenetically relevant diagnostic criteria makes the clinical handling of MPAL patients challenging. We herein report the genetic findings in bone marrow cells from two pediatric MPAL patients.Patients and methodsBone marrow cells were examined using G-banding, array comparative genomic hybridization, RNA sequencing, reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, Sanger sequencing, and fluorescence in situ hybridization.ResultsIn the first patient, the genetic analyses revealed structural aberrations of chromosomal bands 8p11, 10p11, 11q21, and 17p11, the chimeras MLLT10::PICALM and PICALM::MLLT10, and imbalances (gains/losses) on chromosomes 2, 4, 8, 13, and 21. A submicroscopic deletion in 21q was also found including the RUNX1 locus. In the second patient, there were structural aberrations of chromosome bands 1p32, 8p11, 12p13, 20p13, and 20q11, the chimeras ETV6::LEXM and NCOA6::ETV6, and imbalances on chromosomes 2, 8, 11, 12, 16, 19, X, and Y.ConclusionThe leukemic cells from both MPAL patients carried chromosome aberrations resulting in fusion genes as well as genomic imbalances resulting in gain and losses of many gene loci. The detected fusion genes probably represent the main leukemogenic events, although the gains and losses are also likely to play a role in leukemogenesis.

Project description:ImportanceIn newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), disease progression due to acquired resistance to first- or second-generation BCR::ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors is common. Ponatinib inhibits BCR::ABL1 and all single-mutation variants, including T315I.ObjectiveTo compare frontline ponatinib vs imatinib in adults with newly diagnosed Ph+ ALL.Design, setting, and participantsGlobal registrational, phase 3, open-label trial in adults aged 18 years or older with newly diagnosed Ph+ ALL. From January 2019 to May 2022, eligible patients at 77 sites were randomized 2:1 to ponatinib (30 mg/d) or imatinib (600 mg/d) with reduced-intensity chemotherapy, followed by single-agent ponatinib or imatinib after the cycle 20 phase of the trial. The last date of follow-up for this analysis was August 12, 2022.InterventionPatients received ponatinib, 30 mg/d, or imatinib, 600 mg/d, with reduced-intensity chemotherapy, followed by single-agent ponatinib or imatinib after cycle 20. The ponatinib dose was reduced to 15 mg on achievement of minimal residual disease-(MRD) negative complete remission.Main outcomes and measuresThe primary end point of this interim analysis was MRD-negative complete remission (≤0.01% BCR::ABL1 [MR4] centrally assessed by reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction), with complete remission maintained for at least 4 weeks at the end of cycle 3. The key secondary end point was event-free survival.ResultsOf 245 patients randomized (median age, 54 years; 133 [54.3%] female), 232 (ponatinib, n = 154; imatinib, n = 78) who had p190 or p210 dominant isoforms verified by the central laboratory were analyzed for the primary end point. The MRD-negative complete remission rate (primary end point) was significantly higher with ponatinib (34.4% [53/154]) vs imatinib (16.7% [13/78]) (risk difference, 0.18 [95% CI, 0.06-0.29]; P = .002). At the data cutoff, event-free survival had not met the prespecified number of events. Median event-free survival was not reached in the ponatinib group and was 29 months in the imatinib group. The most common adverse events were similar between treatment groups. Arterial occlusive events were infrequent and comparable between groups (ponatinib, 2.5%; imatinib, 1.2%).Conclusions and relevancePonatinib demonstrated a superior rate of MRD-negative complete remission at the end of induction vs imatinib when combined with reduced-intensity chemotherapy in adults with newly diagnosed Ph+ ALL. The safety profile of ponatinib was comparable with imatinib.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03589326.

Project description:Acute leukemias are often of myeloid or lymphoid origin. However, some acute leukemias revealed an undefined differentiation into a single lineage. Mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) is an uncommon diagnosis were blasts can share B/T/myeloid phenotype. Here, we report a rare case of a 17-year-old Moroccan female diagnosed with B/T mixed phenotype acute leukemia and a high hyperdiploid karyotype who relapsed after one year of complete remission with a lineage switch to B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. This case report corroborates the disclosed findings about the high occurence of abnormal karyotypes and poor prognosis of MPAL.

Project description:Acute biphenotypic leukemias or mixed phenotype acute leukemias (MPAL) are rare and considered high risk. The optimal treatment and the role of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT) are unclear. Most prior case series include only modest numbers of patients who underwent transplantation. We analyzed the outcome of 95 carefully characterized alloHCT patients with MPAL reported to the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research between 1996 and 2012. The median age was 20 years (range, 1 to 68). Among the 95 patients, 78 were in first complete remission (CR1) and 17 were in second complete remission (CR2). Three-year overall survival (OS) of 67% (95% confidence interval [CI], 57 to 76), leukemia-free survival of 56% (95% CI, 46 to 66), relapse incidence of 29% (95% CI, 20 to 38), and nonrelapse mortality of 15% (95% CI, 9 to 23) were encouraging. OS was best in younger patients (<20 years), but no significant differences were observed between those 20 to 40 years of age and those who were 40 years or older. A matched-pair analysis showed similar outcomes comparing MPAL cases to 375 acute myelogenous leukemia or 359 acute lymphoblastic leukemia cases. MPAL patients had more acute and a trend for more chronic graft-versus-host disease. No difference was observed between patients who underwent transplantation in CR1 versus those who underwent transplantation in CR2. AlloHCT is a promising treatment option for pediatric and adult patients with MPAL with encouraging long-term survival.
