PG - 12-15 LID - S2210-7762(24)00003-6 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.cancergen.2024.03.004 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) is increasingly recognized as a treatment complication in patients receiving chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or immunosuppressive agents for primary neoplasms. NUP98::PRRX1 fusion gene, caused by t(1;11)(q23;p15), is a rare recurrent cytogenetic alteration in leukemia, and only seven cases with NUP98::PRRX1 were reported so far. METHODS: A 53-year-old female patient was diagnosed with t-AML after 20 months of complete remission (CR) from diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Conventional karyotype, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and DNA/RNA next-generation sequence (NGS) were used to detect genetic abnormalities. RESULTS: Abnormal karyotype of 46, XX, t(1;11)(q25;p15), del(7)(q22) was revealed. NUP98 gene rearrangement and del(7)(q22) were verified by FISH. Further, RNA NGS detected NUP98::PRRX1 fusion transcript, and DNA NGS detected KRAS gene mutation. The patient achieved CR after a combined chemotherapy regimen containing BCL-2 inhibitor and underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), but she died of leukemia recurrence 14 months later. CONCLUSIONS: Novel targeted drugs may provide opportunities for patients with NUP98::PRRX1 to undergo allo-HSCT. However, since the cases of carrying the NUP98::PRRX1 are limited, more patients with this genetic change need to be investigated to elucidate the prognostic significance.
