Abstract
The Philadelphia-negative chronic myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorders predominantly occurring in elderly, whereas in children and young adults are quite infrequent. Therefore, less is known about clinical presentation, genetic abnormalities, prognosis and best management strategies for this groups of patients. Currently, more cases of younger MPN patients are diagnosed. Nevertheless, diagnosis of MPNs, especially in childhood, may be difficult due to lower incidence of JAK2V617F and CALR mutations and differences in peripheral blood counts between adults and children. Challenges for younger MPN patients are longer life expectances, specific psychosocial need, fertility and pregnancy need and a long term therapy side effect (including second cancers). The most severe MPNs complication is transformation to secondary myelofibrosis (MF) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Optimal management of young MPNs remains a challenge as the classical risk scores fail in young MPNs. Moreover, the main objective of young MPNs therapy should be the disease outcome modification. Therefore, international collaborative work between pediatricians and "adult hematologists" is required to measure outcomes and generate protocol of management of young MPNs.

Clonal hematopoiesis and inflammation in the vasculature: CHIVE, a prospective, longitudinal clonal hematopoiesis cohort and biorepository. Blood Adv 2024; 8:3453-3463. [PMID: 38608257 PMCID: PMC11259927 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2023011510] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
ABSTRACT Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is an age-associated phenomenon leading to an increased risk of both hematologic malignancy and nonmalignant organ dysfunction. Increasingly available genetic testing has made the incidental discovery of CH clinically common yet evidence-based guidelines and effective management strategies to prevent adverse CH health outcomes are lacking. To address this gap, the prospective CHIVE (clonal hematopoiesis and inflammation in the vasculature) registry and biorepository was created to identify and monitor individuals at risk, support multidisciplinary CH clinics, and refine taxonomy and standards of practice for CH risk mitigation. Data from the first 181 patients enrolled in this prospective registry recapitulate the molecular epidemiology of CH from biobank-scale retrospective studies, with DNMT3A, TET2, ASXL1, and TP53 as the most commonly mutated genes. Blood counts across all hematopoietic lineages trended lower in patients with CH. In addition, patients with CH had higher rates of end organ dysfunction, in particular chronic kidney disease. Among patients with CH, variant allele frequency was independently associated with the presence of cytopenias and progression to hematologic malignancy, whereas other common high-risk CH clone features were not clear. Notably, accumulation of multiple distinct high-risk clone features was also associated with cytopenias and hematologic malignancy progression, supporting a recently published CH risk score. Surprisingly, ∼30% of patients enrolled in CHIVE from CH clinics were adjudicated as not having clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential, highlighting the need for molecular standards and purpose-built assays in this field. Maintenance of this well-annotated cohort and continued expansion of CHIVE to multiple institutions are underway and will be critical to understanding how to thoughtfully care for this patient population.

Abstract
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are exposed to chronic systemic inflammation and are at risk for secondary malignancies. Here we review the literature on the risk of myeloid neoplasms (MN) in IBD and present the disease profiles of patients at a single institution with IBD who later developed MN, comparing them to those in the literature. No IBD characteristic was found to associate with MN disease severity, including the previously-identified association between MNs and thiopurine exposure. Of the somatic mutations identified in out cohort's MN, mutations in TET2 were most prevalent, followed by FLT3-ITD, BCR-ABL, and NPM1 mutations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cancer remains a worldwide threat, having caused almost 10 million deaths in 2020. The American Cancer Society has identified both known and probable carcinogens, including commonly used drugs. The aim of this study is to describe the drugs most frequently reported in the occurrence of cancer. METHODS Among all individual case safety reports (ICSRs) in the global pharmacovigilance database VigiBase, we searched for the 50 most reported drugs with an adverse drug reaction term belonging to the query "Malignant or unspecified tumors" until June 30, 2023. Then, we extracted the disproportionality measurement data, information component (IC), and reporting odds ratio (ROR) in order to assess a disproportionality signal. RESULTS Among all ICSRs in VigiBase, 871,925 contained an ADR belonging to the SMQ "Malignant or unspecified tumors". Ranitidine was the drug with the most reported ADRs related to cancer (n=106,484), followed by lenalidomide (n=13,466), and etanercept (n=8014). The drugs with the highest IC were ranitidine (IC=5.2, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]=5.2-5.2), pioglitazone (1353 ICSRs, IC=4.2, 95% CI=4.2-4.2), and regorafenib (1272 ICSRs, IC=2.8, 95% CI=2.8-2.8). DISCUSSION Our results show that the main pharmacological mechanisms are associated with ranitidine (link with levels of N-nitrosodimethylamine in ranitidine-based drugs), gene-activating drugs (pioglitazone: link with agonist effects on PPAR-γ gene activation), various pharmacological families with immunosuppressive effects (protein kinase inhibitors, immunomodulators, azathioprine, etc.), certain types of protein kinase inhibitors whose oncogenic mechanisms remain unclear (regorafenib, sorafenib, imatinib, ibrutinib, etc.), and hormone antagonists (tamoxifen, letrozole). Special monitoring of patients exposed to these drugs may be required. Further studies are needed to assess the risk with certain drugs in this ranking.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is described as the outsized contribution of expanded clones of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to blood cell production. The prevalence of CH increases dramatically with age. CH can be caused by somatic mutations in individual genes or by gains and/or losses of larger chromosomal segments. CH is a premalignant state; the somatic mutations detected in CH are the initiating mutations for hematologic malignancies, and CH is a strong predictor of the development of blood cancers. Moreover, CH is associated with nonmalignant disorders and increased overall mortality. The somatic mutations that drive clonal expansion of HSPCs can alter the function of terminally differentiated blood cells, including the release of elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines. These cytokines may then contribute to a broad range of inflammatory disorders that increase in prevalence with age. Specific somatic mutations in the peripheral blood in coordination with blood count parameters can powerfully predict the development of hematologic malignancies and overall mortality in CH. In this review, we summarize the current understanding of CH nosology and origins. We provide an overview of available tools for risk stratification and discuss management strategies for patients with CH presenting to hematology clinics.

Abstract
Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) refers to the outgrowth of blood cells from a hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) clone that acquired one or more somatic mutations, leading to a growth advantage compared to wild type HSCs. In the last years this age-associated phenomenon has been extensively studied, and several cohort studies found association between CH and age-related diseases, esp. leukaemia and cardiovascular disease. For patients with CH present with abnormal blood counts, the term 'clonal cytopenia of unknown significance' is used, which carries a higher risk for developing myeloid neoplasms. In this year, CHIP and CCUS have been included in the updated WHO classification of hematolymphoid tumours. We review the current understanding of the emergence of CHIP, diagnostics, association with other diseases, and potential therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Over the past few years, we have gained a deeper understanding of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), especially with regard to the epidemiology, clinical sequelae, and mechanical aspects. However, interventional strategies to prevent or delay the potential negative consequences of CHIP remain underdeveloped. In this review, we highlight the latest updates on clonal hematopoiesis research, including molecular mechanisms and clinical implications, with a particular focus on the evolving strategies for the interventions that are being evaluated in ongoing observational and interventional trials. There remains an urgent need to formulate standardized and evidence-based recommendations and guidelines for evaluating and managing individuals with clonal hematopoiesis. In addition, patient-centric endpoints must be defined for clinical trials, which will enable us to continue the robust development of effective preventive strategies and improve clinical outcomes.

Abstract
Simple Summary Mutations are not the norm, yet they exist. Having some mutations can infer information about a precancerous state. Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential is a condition of recurrent somatic mutations in the blood of otherwise healthy adults. In this review, we unravel the role of these mutations in multiple myeloma. Abstract Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential can be defined as genetic mutations that correlate in hematologic neoplasia such as myelodysplastic syndrome. Patients with cytopenia increasingly undergo molecular genetic tests of peripheral blood or bone marrow for diagnostic purposes. Recently, a new entity has been demarcated to lessen the risk of incorrect diagnoses of hematologic malignancies. This new entity is a potential precursor of myeloid diseases, analogous to monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance as a potential precursor of multiple myeloma.

Abstract
Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) describes a widespread expansion of genetically variant hematopoietic cells that increases exponentially with age and is associated with increased risks of cancers, cardiovascular disease, and other maladies. Here, we discuss how environmental contexts associated with CHIP, such as old age, infections, chemotherapy, or cigarette smoking, alter tissue microenvironments to facilitate the selection and expansion of specific CHIP mutant clones. Further, we consider major remaining gaps in knowledge, including intrinsic effects, clone size thresholds, and factors affecting clonal competition, that will determine future application of this field in transplant and preventive medicine.

Abstract
Carcinogenesis is one of major complications for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and causes poor prognosis. We aimed to describe cancer incidence in Chinese IBD cohort compared with general population-based cancer registration data and further explore associated risk factors for cancer occurrence in IBD patients. IBD inpatients from January 1998 to January 2018 were included in this study. Patients were followed up from date of IBD diagnosis until either the date of first cancer diagnosis or January 2019. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) of overall cancer and site-specific cancers were calculated. A total of 869 UC and 516 CD patients were finally included with median follow-up time of 7 and 5 years respectively. 53 cases developed malignancies. After standardization by age and gender, standardized incidence ratio (SIR) of total cancer occurrence in IBD patients was 1.77 (95%CI, 1.33-2.32). As for UC, digestive cancers (SIR 3.75; 95%CI, 2.29-5.80), thyroid cancer (SIR 10.34; 95%CI, 4.72-19.64) and hematological malignancies (SIR 6.25; 95%CI, 1.68-16.00) had the highest incidence, which were prominent in young and middle-aged patients. Use of steroids, immunosuppressants or infliximab did not present higher risk of malignancies in UC patients. There were no significant difference in cancer risk between CD patients and general population. In conclusion, the increased risks of multiple cancers are particularly prominent in Chinese UC patients and these findings can provide more targeted guidance for cancer monitoring in Chinese IBD patients.

Abstract
Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is the presence of a clonally expanded hematopoietic stem cell caused by a leukemogenic mutation in individuals without evidence of hematologic malignancy, dysplasia, or cytopenia. CHIP is associated with a 0.5-1.0% risk per year of leukemia. Remarkably, it confers a two-fold increase in cardiovascular risk independent of traditional risk factors. Roughly 80% of patients with CHIP have mutations in epigenetic regulators DNMT3A, TET2, ASXL1, DNA damage repair genes PPM1D, TP53, the regulatory tyrosine kinase JAK2, or mRNA spliceosome components SF3B1, and SRSF2. CHIP is associated with a pro-inflammatory state that has been linked to coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, and venous thromboembolic disease, as well as prognosis among those with aortic stenosis and heart failure. Heritable and acquired risk factors are associated with increased CHIP prevalence, including germline variation, age, unhealthy lifestyle behaviors (i.e. smoking, obesity), inflammatory conditions, premature menopause, HIV and exposure to cancer therapies. This review aims to summarize emerging research on CHIP, the mechanisms underlying its important role in propagating inflammation and accelerating cardiovascular disease, and new studies detailing the role of associated risk factors and co-morbidities that increase CHIP prevalence.

Somatic Mutations and the Risk of Undifferentiated Autoinflammatory Disease in MDS: An Under-Recognized but Prognostically Important Complication. Front Immunol 2021; 12:610019. [PMID: 33679746 PMCID: PMC7933213 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2021.610019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2020] [Accepted: 01/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives: We theorized that myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with somatic mutations and karyotype abnormalities are associated with autoinflammation, and that the presence of autoinflammatory disease affected prognosis in MDS. Methods: One hundred thirty-four MDS patients were assessed for the prevalence of autoinflammatory complications and its link with karyotypes and somatic mutation status. Autoinflammatory complications were described either as well-defined autoinflammatory diseases (AD) or undifferentiated "autoinflammatory disease" (UAD) (defined as CRP over 10.0 mg/L on five consecutive occasions, taken at separate times and not explained by infection). Several patient characteristics including demographic, clinical, laboratory, cytogenetics charts, and outcomes, were compared between different groups. Results: Sixty-two (46.3%) patients had an autoinflammatory complication manifesting as arthralgia (43.5% vs. 23.6%, p = 0.0146), arthritis (30.6% vs. 15.3%, p = 0.0340), skin rash (27.4% vs. 12.5%, p = 0.0301), pleuritis (14.5% vs. 4.2%, p = 0.0371) and unexplained fever (27.4% vs. 0%, p < 0.0001). AD were found in 7.4% of MDS patients (with polymyalgia rheumatic being the most frequently one). Classical autoimmune diseases were found only in 4 MDS patients (3.0%). Transcription factor pathway mutations (RUNX1, BCOR, WTI, TP53) (OR 2.20 [95%CI 1.02-4.75], p = 0.0451) and abnormal karyotypes (OR 2.76 [95%CI 1.22-6.26], p = 0.0153) were associated with autoinflammatory complications. Acute leukaemic transformation was more frequent in MDS patients with autoinflammatory features than those without (27.4% vs. 9.7%, p = 0.0080). Conclusions: Autoinflammatory complications are common in MDS. Somatic mutations of transcription factor pathways and abnormal karyotypes are associated with greater risk of autoinflammatory complications, which are themselves linked to malignant transformation and a worse prognosis.

Abstract
People living with rheumatic diseases frequently encounter cancer, either as a potential harm of antirheumatic therapies or as a comorbidity that alters the conversation about management. This article provides a general overview of the issues related to cancer and rheumatic disease and serves as a springboard for the remaining chapters in this issue. Several topics are reviewed, including epidemiology, bidirectional causal pathways, and issues related to medications. Although uncertainties remain, the issue of cancer is of great importance to patients with rheumatic diseases, and an individualized, person-centered approach to assessment and management is necessary.
