Abstract
Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy. Most patients are diagnosed at a late stage with poor prognosis. The treatment usually includes combined intensive chemotherapy, cytoreductive surgery, radiotherapy, and targeted therapy. Due to the low incidence rate and dismal survival, there is currently a lack of case reports on DSRCT with concurrent leukemia. We report a case of a young patient who achieved disease stabilization for 14 months after receiving 6 cycles of chemotherapy and whole abdominal radiation therapy (WART), followed by consolidation treatment with anlotinib. However, the treatment was terminated due to the development of Acute Myeloid Leukemia-M5 (AML-M5). Multimodal therapy may provide a survival benefit for rare tumors that lack standard treatment. However, intensive chemotherapy and extensive radiotherapy carry a risk of inducing secondary malignancies. This is the first reported case of concurrent DSRCT and AML-M5 with short intervals between onset.

Abstract
There is increasing recognition of the risk of developing therapy-related myeloid malignancy, including after cellular therapy. While retrospective studies have implicated pre-existing TP53 mutated hematopoietic clones as a common causative mechanism, no prospective screening to identify those patients at greatest risk is currently possible. We demonstrate that ultradeep DNA-sequencing prior to therapy may be used for discovery of TP53 mutations that are subsequently associated with malignancy.

Abstract
Therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) is a therapeutic challenge as a late complication of chemotherapy (CHT) and/or radiotherapy (RT) for primary malignancy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) presents itself as a curative approach. To establish the optimal allo-HSCT strategy for t-AML, we evaluated the relationship between characteristics of primary malignancy and allo-HSCT outcomes. Patients with t-AML or de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who underwent first allo-HSCT in Japan from 2011 to 2018 were identified using a nationwide database. The detailed background of t-AML was obtained by additional questionnaires. Multivariate analysis and propensity score matching (PSM) analysis were performed to detect the prognostic factors associated with t-AML and compare outcomes with de novo AML. We analyzed 285 t-AML and 6761 de novo AML patients. In patients with t-AML, receiving both CHT and RT for primary malignancy was an independent poor-risk factor for relapse and overall survival (OS) (hazard ratio (HR) 1.62; p = 0.029 and HR 1.65; p = 0.009, reference: CHT alone group), whereas other primary malignancy-related factors had no effect on the outcome. Compared to the CHT alone group, complex karyotypes were significantly increased in the CHT + RT group (86.1% vs. 57.5%, p = 0.007). In the PSM cohort, t-AML patients with prior CHT and RT had significantly worse 3-year OS than those with de novo AML (25.2% and 42.7%; p = 0.009). Our results suggest that prior CHT and RT for primary malignancy may be associated with increased relapse and worse OS of allo-HSCT in t-AML.

Abstract
Introduction It was first reported that germ cell tumor patients suffer from hematologic malignancies 37 years ago. Since then, the number of relevant reports has increased each year, with most cases being mediastinal germ cell tumor. Theories have been proposed to explain this phenomenon, including a shared origin of progenitor cells, the effects of treatment, and independent development. However, up to now, no widely accepted explanation exists. The case with acute megakaryoblastic leukemia and intracranial germ cell tumor has never been reported before and the association is far less known. Methods We used whole exome sequencing and gene mutation analysis to study the relationship between intracranial germ cell tumor and acute megakaryoblastic leukemia of our patient. Results We report a patient who developed acute megakaryoblastic leukemia after treatment for an intracranial germ cell tumor. Through whole exome sequencing and gene mutation analysis, we identified that both tumors shared the same mutation genes and mutation sites, suggesting they originated from the same progenitor cells and differentiated in the later stage. Discussion Our findings provide the first evidence supporting the theory that acute megakaryoblastic leukemia and intracranial germ cell tumor has the same progenitor cells.

Abstract
There is a growing body of evidence that therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs) with driver gene mutations arise in the background of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) under the positive selective pressure of chemo- and radiation therapies. Uncovering the exposure relationships that provide selective advantage to specific CH mutations is critical to understanding the pathogenesis and etiology of t-MNs. In a systematic analysis of 416 patients with t-MN and detailed prior exposure history, we found that TP53 mutations were significantly associated with prior treatment with thalidomide analogs, specifically lenalidomide. We demonstrated experimentally that lenalidomide treatment provides a selective advantage to Trp53-mutant hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in vitro and in vivo, the effect of which was specific to Trp53-mutant HSPCs and was not observed in HSPCs with other CH mutations. Because of the differences in CK1α degradation, pomalidomide treatment did not provide an equivalent level of selective advantage to Trp53-mutant HSPCs, providing a biological rationale for its use in patients at high risk for t-MN. These findings highlight the role of lenalidomide treatment in promoting TP53-mutated t-MNs and offer a potential alternative strategy to mitigate the risk of t-MN development.

Abstract
Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs) are a late complication of cytotoxic therapy and are defined as a distinct entity by the World Health Organization. Although the link between chemotherapy exposure and risk of subsequent t-MN is well described, the association between radiation monotherapy (RT) and t-MN risk is less definitive. We analyzed 109 consecutive patients who developed t-MNs after RT and describe latencies, cytogenetic profile, mutation analyses, and clinical outcomes. The most common cytogenetic abnormality was a clonal abnormality in chromosome 5 and/or 7, which was present in 45% of patients. The median latency from RT to t-MN diagnosis was 6.5 years, with the shortest latency in patients with balanced translocations. One-year overall survival (OS) was 52% and 5-year OS was 22% for the entire cohort. Patients with chromosome 5 and/or 7 abnormalities experienced worse 1-year OS (37%) and 5-year OS (2%) compared with other cytogenetic groups (P < .0001). Sixteen patients underwent net-generation sequencing; ASXL1 and TET2 were the most commonly mutated genes (n = 4). In addition, 17 patients underwent germline variant testing and 3 carried pathogenic or likely pathogenic germline variants. In conclusion, patients with t-MN after RT monotherapy have increased frequencies of chromosome 5 and/or 7 abnormalities, which are associated with poor OS. In addition, pathogenic germline variants may be common in patients with t-MN after RT monotherapy.

Abstract
Advances in medicine have improved outcomes in children diagnosed with cancer, with overall 5-year survival rates for these children now exceeding 80%. Two-thirds of childhood cancer survivors have at least one late effect of cancer therapy, with one-third having serious or even life-threatening effects. One of the most serious late effects is a development of subsequent malignant neoplasms (histologically different cancers, which appear after the treatment for primary cancer), which occur in about 3-10% of survivors and are associated with high mortality. In cancers with a very good prognosis, subsequent malignant neoplasms significantly affect long-term survival. Therefore, there is an effort to reduce particularly hazardous treatments. This review discusses the importance of individual factors (gender, genetic factors, cytostatic drugs, radiotherapy) in the development of subsequent malignant neoplasms and the possibilities of their prediction and prevention in the future.

Molecular Landscape of Therapy-related Myeloid Neoplasms in Patients Previously Treated for Gynecologic and Breast Cancers. Hemasphere 2021; 5:e632.

Abstract
Definition of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (TRMN) is only based on clinical history of exposure to leukemogenic therapy. No specific molecular classification combining therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia and therapy-related myelodysplastic syndromes has been proposed. We aimed to describe the molecular landscape of TRMN at diagnosis, among 77 patients with previous gynecologic and breast cancer with a dedicated next-generation sequencing panel covering 74 genes. We investigated the impact of clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential-associated mutations (CHIP-AMs defined as presence at TRMN stage of mutations described in CHIP with a frequency >1%) on overall survival (OS) and the clinical relevance of a modified genetic ontogeny-based classifier that categorized patients in 3 subgroups. The most frequently mutated genes were TP53 (31%), DNMT3A (19%), IDH1/2 (13%), NRAS (13%), TET2 (12%), NPM1 (10%), PPM1D (9%), and PTPN11 (9%). CHIP-AMs were detected in 66% of TRMN patients, with no impact on OS. Yet, patients with CHIP-AM were older and had a longer time interval between solid tumor diagnosis and TRMN. According to our modified ontogeny-based classifier, we observed that the patients with TP53 or PPM1D mutations had more treatment lines and complex karyotypes, the “MDS-like” patients were older with more gene mutations, while patients with “De novo/pan-AML” mutations were younger with more balanced chromosomal translocations. Median OS within each subgroup was 7.5, 14.5, and 25.2 months, respectively, with statistically significant difference in multivariate analysis. These results support the integration of cytogenetic and molecular markers into the future TRMN classification to reflect the biological diversity of TRMN and its impact on outcomes.

Abstract
Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms are a life-threatening and often fatal complication, associated with poor prognosis outcomes and with high-risk unfavorable cytogenetic abnormalities including complex karyotype. They occur after the treatment of primary malignancies using chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. Such therapy is not specific to cancer cells, and also damages the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) of normal cells, resulting in unbalanced and balanced translocations. There are eight genetic pathways, whose details are summarized in this review, depending on the cytogenetic abnormalities induced. This abnormality is the major contributor to the development of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms. The etiology of these neoplasms depends on the complex interaction between the nature and dose of the cytotoxic agent, the environment, and the presence of subsequent inherited mutations. This review aims to elaborate upon recent knowledge regarding the etiology, pathogenesis, and genetic pathways of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms. A deeper understanding of their etiology would aid physicians in more careful monitoring of patients during or after cytotoxic therapy for hematological malignancy. Ultimately, this knowledge could influence initial treatment strategies, with the aim of reducing both the incidence and serious complications of neoplasms. Therefore, early detection of DNA lesions is vital. The authors recommend that primary malignancy be treated with targeted therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) harboring 11q23 translocations is classified as therapy-related AML in patients who have undergone prior treatment with cytotoxic agents. There have been only a few reports of AML that subsequently developed during imatinib mesylate (IM) treatment for gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).
CASE SUMMARY A 63-year-old woman was diagnosed with a hepatic GIST recurrence in April 2012; she was administered IM 400 mg/d. In November 2015, she developed dyspnea with pancytopenia while IM treatment was continued for 42 mo. A chromosome study using a bone marrow sample showed a 46, XX karyotype with t(11;19)(q23;p13.1) in 22 of 26 analyzed metaphase cells. Fluorescence in situ hybridization using the locus-specific indicator (11q23) gene break-apart probe showed positive rearrangement in 82% of interphase cells. Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reactions subsequently confirmed the KMT2A/ELL transcript. She achieved complete response with incomplete neutrophil recovery with two decitabine treatment cycles. After the third cycle of decitabine, the disease relapsed, and she refused further treatment. She died of hemorrhagic stroke 5 mo after diagnosis. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of AML with KMT2A gene rearrangements in a patient with a GIST receiving IM treatment.
CONCLUSION Physicians should consider the potential risks of developing hematologic malignancies, including therapy-related AML, in patients with GISTs receiving IM treatment.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) represents 80% of adult leukemias and 15-20% of childhood leukemias. AML are characterized by the presence of 20% blasts or more in the bone marrow, or defining cytogenetic abnormalities. Laboratory diagnoses of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) depend on morphological changes based on dysplasia in peripheral blood and bone marrow, including peripheral blood smears, bone marrow aspirate smears, and bone marrow biopsies. As leukemic cells are not functional, the patient develops anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia, leading to fatigue, recurrent infections, and hemorrhage. The genetic background and associated mutations in AML blasts determine the clinical course of the disease. Over the last decade, non-coding RNAs transcripts that do not codify for proteins but play a role in regulation of functions have been shown to have multiple applications in the diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic approach of various types of cancers, including myeloid malignancies. After a comprehensive review of current literature, we found reports of multiple long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) that can differentiate between AML types and how their exogenous modulation can dramatically change the behavior of AML cells. These lncRNAs include: H19, LINC00877, RP11-84C10, CRINDE, RP11848P1.3, ZNF667-AS1, AC111000.4-202, SFMBT2, LINC02082-201, MEG3, AC009495.2, PVT1, HOTTIP, SNHG5, and CCAT1. In addition, by performing an analysis on available AML data in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we found 10 lncRNAs with significantly differential expression between patients in favorable, intermediate/normal, or poor cytogenetic risk categories. These are: DANCR, PRDM16-DT, SNHG6, OIP5-AS1, SNHG16, JPX, FTX, KCNQ1OT1, TP73-AS1, and GAS5. The identification of a molecular signature based on lncRNAs has the potential for have deep clinical significance, as it could potentially help better define the evolution from low-grade MDS to high-grade MDS to AML, changing the course of therapy. This would allow clinicians to provide a more personalized, patient-tailored therapeutic approach, moving from transfusion-based therapy, as is the case for low-grade MDS, to the introduction of azacytidine-based chemotherapy or allogeneic stem cell transplantation, which is the current treatment for high-grade MDS.

Abstract
The cure rate for several solid tumour malignancies including breast cancers, head and neck cancers, bone cancers, and sarcoma has improved remarkably with the advent of neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapies. Unfortunately, exposure to chemotherapy or radiation as a part of these treatments exposes patients to the risk of subsequent myeloid malignancies. Therapy related myeloid malignancies have certain characteristic findings. They typically arise within 10 years of treatment exposure, they are seen in younger patients, and the greatest risk is in patients who receive therapy with alkylating agents or topoisomerase II inhibitors. Solid tumours whose therapies utilize these agents at higher doses, namely bone/soft tissue cancers, testicular cancer, anal cancer, and brain tumours, appear to be the groups at highest risk for T-MN. Beyond these patients, emerging populations diagnosed with T-MN include prior platinum exposure, and patients requiring G-CSF support with chemotherapy.

Abstract
We analyzed treatment outcomes and prognostic factors in adult patients with therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs) to select patients who would be benefited by active anticancer treatment. After excluding 18 patients who received palliative care only and 13 patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia, 72 t-MN patients (45 with acute myeloid leukemia and 27 with myelodysplastic syndrome) were retrospectively evaluated. Among them, 10 (13.9%), 32 (44.4%), and 30 patients (41.7%) had favorable, intermediate- and adverse-risk cytogenetics, respectively. Among patients with intermediate-risk cytogenetics, patients with a normal karyotype (NK; N = 20) showed superior allogeneic stem cell transplantation-censored overall survival (AC-OS) and OS compared to those with non-NK-intermediate-risk cytogenetics (P < 0.001). In the multivariate analysis, male sex, age ≥ 70 years, and unfavorable cytogenetics (non-NK-intermediate plus adverse risk cytogenetics) were associated with inferior AC-OS. Those results suggest that a more-refined subdivision of risk stratification would be necessary in patients with intermediate-risk cytogenetics.

Risk of second primary cancer following myeloid neoplasia and risk of myeloid neoplasia as second primary cancer: a nationwide, observational follow up study in Sweden. LANCET HAEMATOLOGY 2018; 5:e368-e377. [PMID: 30075833 DOI: 10.1016/s2352-3026(18)30108-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2018] [Revised: 06/26/2018] [Accepted: 06/28/2018] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although advances in the treatment of myeloid neoplasms have led to improved patient survival, this improvement has been accompanied by an increased risk of second primary cancer (ie, the risk of another cancer after myeloid neoplasia). We aimed to assess bi-directional associations between myeloid cancers and other cancers-ie, development of second primary cancer in patients who have previously had myeloid cancer, and risks of myeloid neoplasia in patients who have previously had another cancer-to provide insight into possible mechanisms beyond side-effects of treatment and shared risk factors. METHODS Using the Swedish Family-Cancer Database, we identified 35 928 individuals with primary myeloid cancer, including myeloproliferative neoplasms, acute myeloid leukaemia, chronic myeloid leukaemia, and myelodysplastic syndrome diagnosed between 1958 and 2015. The Swedish Family-Cancer Database includes every individual registered as a resident in Sweden starting in 1932, with full parental history. The primary endpoint was the assessment of relative risks (RRs) for second primary cancer, which we performed using means of incidence rate ratios, regressed over a generalised Poisson model. FINDINGS Between 1958 and 2015, overall relative risk of second primary cancers was significantly increased after acute myeloid leukaemia (RR 1·29, 95% CI 1·17-1·41), chronic myeloid leukaemia (1·52, 1·35-1·69), myelodysplastic syndrome (1·42, 1·26-1·59), and all myeloproliferative neoplasms (1·37, 1·30-1·43) relative to the incidence of these cancers as first primary cancer. With myeloid neoplasia as a second primary cancer, risks were significantly increased for acute myeloid leukaemia (1·57, 1·48-1·65), chronic myeloid leukaemia (1·26, 1·13-1·40), and myelodysplastic syndrome (1·54, 1·42-1·67) relative to the incidence of these myeloid neoplasms as first primary cancers. Relative risk of upper aerodigestive tract cancer, squamous cell skin cancer, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma as second primary cancers were increased after all four types of myeloid neoplasia relative to their incidence as first primary cancers. High risks of myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukaemia as second primary cancers were found after haematological cancers (RRs between 5·08 and 10·04). INTERPRETATION The relative risks of second primary cancer are important for the long-term management of patients with myeloid cancers. The bi-directional associations of myeloid cancers with many other cancers suggest a number of candidate mechanisms that might contribute to the development and aetiology of a second primary cancer. These mechanisms might include immune dysfunction or the effects of treatment, and these should be assessed in future investigations.

Abstract
We analyzed the genetic mutation status of 13 patients with therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN). Consistent with previous reports, t-MN cells preferentially acquired mutations in TP53 and epigenetic modifying genes, instead of mutations in tyrosine kinase and spliceosome genes. Furthermore, we compared the mutation status of three t-MN cells with each of the initial lymphoid malignant cells, and identified common mutations among t-MN and the initial malignant cells in two patients. In a patient who developed chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) after follicular lymphoma (FL), TET2 mutation was identified in both CMML and FL cells. Notably, the TET2 mutation was also identified in peripheral blood cells in the disease-free period with the same allelic frequency as CMML and FL cells, but not in a germ-line control, indicating that the TET2 mutation occurred somatically in the initiating clone for both malignant cells. On the other hand, a germ-line MYB mutation was identified in a patient who developed myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) after FL. These results suggest that germ-line deposition and clonal hematopoiesis are closely associated with t-MN susceptibility; however, further analysis is necessary to clarify the mechanism required to provide the initiating clone with lineage commitment and clonal expansion.

Abstract
Abstract
In the 2016 revision of the World Health Organization classification the term therapy-related myeloid neoplasia (t-MN) defines a subgroup of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) comprising patients who develop myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS-t) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML-t) after treatment with cytotoxic and/or radiation therapy for various malignancies or autoimmune disorders. We report the case of a 36 year old patient with t-MN (t-MDS) after achieving complete remission (CR) of a PML-RARA positive acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) at 32 months after diagnosis. Initially classified as low risk APL and treated according to the AIDA protocol - induction and 3 consolidation cycles - the patient achieved a complete molecular response in September 2013 and started maintenance therapy. On follow-up PML-RARA transcript remained negative. In January 2016 leukopenia and thrombocytopenia developed and a peripheral blood smear revealed hypogranular and agranular neutrophils. Immunophenotyping in the bone marrow aspirate identified undifferentiated blast cells that did not express cytoplasmic myeloperoxidase. The cytogenetic study showed normal karyotype. The molecular biology tests not identified PMLRARA transcript. A diagnosis of t-MDS (AREB-2 - WHO 2008) was established. Treatment of AML was started with 2 “3+7” regimens and 1 MEC cycle. Two months from diagnosis, while in CR, an allogeneic HSCT from an unrelated HLA compatible donor was performed after myeloablative regimen. An unfavorable clinical evolution was followed by death on day 9 after transplantation. The occurrence of t-MNs during CR of APL represents a particular problem in terms of follow-up and differential diagnosis of relapse and constitutes a dramatic complication for a disease with a favorable prognosis.
