Abstract
Malignant histiocytosis (MH) is an extremely rare neoplasm of the macrophage-dendritic cell lineage. We report the clinical characteristics, molecular aberrations, treatments, and outcomes of patients with MH seen at two referral centers from January 2000 to May 2023. We identified 43 patients with MH, of which 26 had histiocytic sarcoma (MH-H), 9 interdigitating dendritic cell sarcoma (MH-IDC), and 8 Langerhans cell sarcoma (MH-LC). The median age at diagnosis was 61 years (range, 3-83). Thirty-three patients (77%) had multifocal disease, while 10 had unifocal involvement. Tumor specimens from 22 patients (51%) underwent targeted next generation sequencing, and 19 of 22 (86%) had at least one pathogenic mutation, including mutations in MAPK pathway genes (73%). The median overall survival (OS) among the entire cohort was 16 months (95% CI: 8-50). The outcomes of those with multifocal disease were significantly shorter than their unifocal counterpart: median OS of 10 months versus 50 months (p = .07). Patients with risk organ involvement (bone marrow, spleen, or liver) had significantly inferior outcomes. Chemotherapy and surgery were the most common first-line treatments for multifocal and unifocal disease, respectively. While the outcome for patients with multifocal disease was poor, there was a subset of patients who had durable responses to treatment. Our study highlights that MH has heterogeneous clinical presentation, frequent oncogenic mutations, and prognosis, which is strongly tied to disease extent and type of organ involvement.

Pediatric Precision Medicine at the National Cancer Center Japan: Prospective Genomic Study of Pediatric Patients with Cancer as Part of the TOP-GEAR Project. JCO Precis Oncol 2023; 7:e2200266.

Abstract
PURPOSE This single-center, prospective molecular profiling study characterizes genomic alterations and identifies therapeutic targets in advanced pediatric solid tumors. METHODS As part of the TOP-GEAR (Trial of Onco-Panel for Gene profiling to Estimate both Adverse events and Response by cancer treatment) project at the National Cancer Center (NCC), Japan, we enrolled pediatric patients with a refractory or recurrent disease during August 2016-December 2021 and performed genomic analysis of matched tumors and blood using originally developed cancer gene panels, NCC Oncopanel (ver. 4.0) and NCC Oncopanel Ped (ver. 1.0). RESULTS Of 142 patients (age, 1-28 years) enrolled, 128 (90%) were evaluable for genomic analysis; 76 (59%) patients harbored at least one reportable somatic or germline alteration. The tumor samples were collected during the initial diagnosis in 65 (51%) patients, after treatment initiation in 11 (9%) patients, and upon either disease progression or relapse in 52 (41%) patients. The leading altered gene was TP53, followed by MYCN, MYC, CDKN2A, and CDK4. The commonly affected molecular processes were transcription, cell-cycle regulation, epigenetic modifiers, and RAS/mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling. Twelve (9%) patients carried pathogenic germline variants in cancer-predisposing genes. Potentially actionable findings were identified in 40 (31%) patients; to date, 13 (10%) patients have received the recommended therapy on the basis of their genomic profiles. Although four patients had access to targeted therapy through clinical trials, the agents were used in nine patients in an off-label setting. CONCLUSION The implementation of genomic medicine has furthered our understanding of tumor biology and provided new therapeutic strategies. However, the paucity of proposed agents limits the full potential of actionability, emphasizing the significance of facilitating access to targeted cancer therapies.

Case report: Targeting the PD-1 receptor and genetic mutations validated in primary histiocytic sarcoma with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1127599.

Abstract
Histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is a rare hematological malignancy with limited treatment options, and it is also prone to complications such as hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) in the later stages of the disease, leading to difficulties in treatment and poor prognosis. It highlights the importance of developing novel therapeutic agents. Herein, we present a case of a 45-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with PD-L1-positive HS with HLH. The patient was admitted to our hospital with recurrent high fever, multiple skin rashes with pruritus throughout the body and enlarged lymph nodes. Subsequently, pathological biopsy of the lymph nodes revealed high expression of CD163, CD68, S100, Lys and CD34 in the tumor cells and no expression of CD1a and CD207, confirming this rare clinical diagnosis. Concerning the low remission rate by conventional treatment in this disease, the patient was administered with sintilimab (an anti-programmed cell death 1 [anti-PD-1] monoclonal antibody) at 200 mg/d combined with a first-line chemotherapy regimen for one cycle. Further exploration of pathological biopsy by using next-generation gene sequencing led to the use of targeted therapy of chidamide. After one cycle of combination therapy (chidamide+sintilimab, abbreviated as CS), the patient achieved a favorable response. The patient showed remarkable improvement in the general symptoms and laboratory examination results (e.g., elevated indicators of inflammation); even the clinical benefits was not persistent, he survived one more month after his cessation of treatment by himself due to economic difficulty. Our case suggests that PD-1 inhibitor coupled with targeted therapy might constitute a potential therapeutic option for primary HS with HLH.

Abstract
Pediatric histiocytic sarcoma (HS) clonally related to anteceding leukemia is a rare malignancy with poor outcome. We performed a molecular characterization of HS and the corresponding leukemia by methylation arrays and whole-exome sequencing and found a variety of aberrations in both entities with deletions of CDKN2A/B as a recurrent finding. Furthermore, data from genome-wide mutation analysis from one patient allowed the reconstruction of a sequence of tumorigenesis of leukemia and HS lesions including the acquisition of a putatively activating KRAS frameshift deletion (p.A66fs). Our results provide an insight into the genetic landscape of pediatric HS clonally related to anteceding leukemia.
