Realizing precision medicine in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: Remaining challenges and potential opportunities. Hemasphere 2024; 8:e113. [PMID: 39035106 PMCID: PMC11260284 DOI: 10.1002/hem3.113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/23/2024] Open
Abstract
Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) exhibit diverse clinical outcomes. An expanding array of genetic tests is now employed to facilitate the identification of patients with high-risk disease and inform treatment decisions. These tests encompass molecular cytogenetic analysis, focusing on recurrent chromosomal alterations, particularly del(17p). Additionally, sequencing is utilized to identify TP53 mutations and to determine the somatic hypermutation status of the immunoglobulin heavy variable gene. Concurrently, a swift advancement of targeted treatment has led to the implementation of novel strategies for patients with CLL, including kinase and BCL2 inhibitors. This review explores both current and emerging diagnostic tests aimed at identifying high-risk patients who should benefit from targeted therapies. We outline existing treatment paradigms, emphasizing the importance of matching the right treatment to the right patient beyond genetic stratification, considering the crucial balance between safety and efficacy. We also take into consideration the practical and logistical issues when choosing a management strategy for each individual patient. Furthermore, we delve into the mechanisms underlying therapy resistance and stress the relevance of monitoring measurable residual disease to guide treatment decisions. Finally, we underscore the necessity of aggregating real-world data, adopting a global perspective, and ensuring patient engagement. Taken together, we argue that precision medicine is not the mere application of precision diagnostics and accessibility of precision therapies in CLL but encompasses various aspects of the patient journey (e.g., lifestyle exposures and comorbidities) and their preferences toward achieving true personalized medicine for patients with CLL.

Abstract
In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), analysis of TP53 aberrations (deletion and/or mutation) is a crucial part of treatment decision-making algorithms. Technological and treatment advances have resulted in the need for an update of the last recommendations for TP53 analysis in CLL, published by ERIC, the European Research Initiative on CLL, in 2018. Based on the current knowledge of the relevance of low-burden TP53-mutated clones, a specific variant allele frequency (VAF) cut-off for reporting TP53 mutations is no longer recommended, but instead, the need for thorough method validation by the reporting laboratory is emphasized. The result of TP53 analyses should always be interpreted within the context of available laboratory and clinical information, treatment indication, and therapeutic options. Methodological aspects of introducing next-generation sequencing (NGS) in routine practice are discussed with a focus on reliable detection of low-burden clones. Furthermore, potential interpretation challenges are presented, and a simplified algorithm for the classification of TP53 variants in CLL is provided, representing a consensus based on previously published guidelines. Finally, the reporting requirements are highlighted, including a template for clinical reports of TP53 aberrations. These recommendations are intended to assist diagnosticians in the correct assessment of TP53 mutation status, but also physicians in the appropriate understanding of the lab reports, thus decreasing the risk of misinterpretation and incorrect management of patients in routine practice whilst also leading to improved stratification of patients with CLL in clinical trials.

Unveiling the dynamics and molecular landscape of a rare chronic lymphocytic leukemia subpopulation driving refractoriness: insights from single-cell RNA sequencing. Mol Oncol 2024.

Abstract
Early identification of resistant cancer cells is currently a major challenge, as their expansion leads to refractoriness. To capture the dynamics of these cells, we made a comprehensive analysis of disease progression and treatment response in a chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) patient using a combination of single-cell and bulk genomic methods. At diagnosis, the patient presented with unfavorable genetic markers, including notch receptor 1 (NOTCH1) mutation and loss(11q). The initial and subsequent treatment lines did not lead to a durable response and the patient developed refractory disease. Refractory CLL cells featured substantial dysregulation in B-cell phenotypic markers such as human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes, immunoglobulin (IG) genes, CD19 molecule (CD19), membrane spanning 4-domains A1 (MS4A1; previously known as CD20), CD79a molecule (CD79A) and paired box 5 (PAX5), indicating B-cell de-differentiation and disease transformation. We described the clonal evolution and characterized in detail two cell populations that emerged during the refractory disease phase, differing in the presence of high genomic complexity. In addition, we successfully tracked the cells with high genomic complexity back to the time before treatment, where they formed a rare subpopulation. We have confirmed that single-cell RNA sequencing enables the characterization of refractory cells and the monitoring of their development over time.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer and the prevalence rate of CRC is increasing in the China. In this study, whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on primary tissues of 47 CRC Chinese patients including 22 metastatic and 25 non-metastatic patients. By comparison with data from western colorectal cancer patients in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we identified a number of genes that are more likely to be mutated in Chinese colorectal cancer patients, such as MUC12, MUC12, MUC2, MUC4, HYDIN and KMT2C. Interestingly, MUC family genes including MUC12, MUC2 and MUC4, have mutation rates of >20%, while the mutation frequency was extremely low in western colorectal cancer patients, which were <3% in TCGA and 0% in Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC). We detected metastasis-specific mutated genes including TCF7L2, MST1L, HRNR and SMAD4, while MUC4, NEB, FLG and RFPL4A alteration is more prevalent in the non-metastasis group. Further analysis reveals mutation genes in metastasis group are more focus in the Wnt and Hippo signaling pathway. APC, SMAD4 and TCF7L2 accounted for the major genetic abnormalities in this pathway. In conclusion, this study identified the unique characteristics of gene mutations in Chinese patients with colorectal cancer, and is a valuable reference for personalized treatment in Chinese CRC patients.

Ultra-deep mutational landscape in chronic lymphocytic leukemia uncovers dynamics of resistance to targeted therapies. Haematologica 2024; 109:835-845.

Abstract
BTK inhibitors, Bcl-2 inhibitors, and other targeted therapies have significantly improved the outcomes of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). With increased survivorship, monitoring disease and deciphering potential mechanisms of resistance to these agents are critical for devising effective treatment strategies. We used duplex sequencing, a technology that enables detection of mutations at ultra-low allelic frequencies, to identify mutations in five genes associated with drug resistance in CLL and followed their evolution in two patients who received multiple targeted therapies and ultimately developed disease progression on pirtobrutinib. In both patients we detected variants that expanded and reached significant cancer cell fractions (CCF). In patient R001, multiple known resistance mutations in both BTK and PLCG2 appeared following progression on zanubrutinib (BTK p.L528W, p.C481S; PLCG2 S707F, L845F, R665W, and D993H). In contrast, patient R002 developed multiple BTK mutations following acalabrutinib treatment, including known resistance mutations p.C481R, p.T474I and p.C481S. We found that pirtobrutinib was able to suppress, but not completely eradicate, BTK p.C481S mutations in both patients, but other resistance mutations such as mutations in PLCG2 and new BTK mutations increased while the patients were receiving pirtobrutinib. For example, BTK p.L528W in patient R001 increased in frequency more than 1,000-fold (from a CCF of 0.02% to 35%), and the CCF in p.T474I in patient R002 increased from 0.03% to 4.2% (more than 100-fold). Our data illuminate the evolutionary dynamics of resistant clones over the patients' disease course and under selective pressure from different targeted treatments.

Abstract
Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have differing clinical outcomes. Recent advances integrating multi-omic data have uncovered molecular subtypes in CLL with different prognostic implications and may allow better prediction of therapy response. While finite-duration chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) has enabled deep responses and prolonged duration of responses in the past, the advent of novel targeted therapy for the treatment of CLL has dramatically changed the therapeutic landscape. In this review, we discuss the latest genomic, transcriptomic, and epigenetic alterations regarded as major drivers of resistance to CIT in CLL. Further advances in genomic medicine will allow for better prediction of response to therapy and provide the basis for rational selection of therapy for long-term remissions with minimal toxicity.

Abstract
TP53 aberrations predict chemoresistance and represent a contraindication for the use of standard chemoimmunotherapy in chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). Recent next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based studies have identified frequent low-burden TP53 mutations with variant allele frequencies below 10%, but the clinical impact of these low-burden TP53 mutations is still a matter of debate. In this study, we aimed to scrutinise the subclonal architecture and clinical impact of TP53 mutations using a sensitive, NGS-based mutation analysis in a 'real-world' cohort of 901 patients with CLL. In total, 225 TP53 mutations were identified in 17.5% (158/901) of the patients; 48% of these alterations represented high-burden mutations, while 52% were low-burden TP53 mutations. Low-burden mutations as sole alterations were identified in 39% (62/158) of all mutated cases with 82% (51/62) of these being represented by a single low-burden TP53 mutation. Patients harbouring low-burden TP53 mutations had significantly lower time to first treatment compared to patients with wild-type TP53. Our study has expanded the knowledge on the frequency, clonal architecture, and clinical impact of low-burden TP53 mutations. By demonstrating that patients with sole low-burden TP53 variants represent more than one-third of patients with TP53 mutations and have an increased risk for treatment initiation, our findings strengthen the need to redefine the threshold of TP53 variant reporting to below 10% in the routine diagnostic setting.

Integrative NGS testing reveals clonal dynamics of adverse genomic defects contributing to a natural progression in treatment-naïve CLL patients. Br J Haematol 2024; 204:240-249.

Abstract
Large-scale next-generation sequencing (NGS) studies revealed extensive genetic heterogeneity, driving a highly variable clinical course of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL). The evolution of subclonal populations contributes to diverse therapy responses and disease refractoriness. Besides, the dynamics and impact of subpopulations before therapy initiation are not well understood. We examined changes in genomic defects in serial samples of 100 untreated CLL patients, spanning from indolent to aggressive disease. A comprehensive NGS panel LYNX, which provides targeted mutational analysis and genome-wide chromosomal defect assessment, was employed. We observed dynamic changes in the composition and/or proportion of genomic aberrations in most patients (62%). Clonal evolution of gene variants prevailed over the chromosomal alterations. Unsupervised clustering based on aberration dynamics revealed four groups of patients with different clinical behaviour. An adverse cluster was associated with fast progression and early therapy need, characterized by the expansion of TP53 defects, ATM mutations, and 18p- alongside dynamic SF3B1 mutations. Our results show that clonal evolution is active even without therapy pressure and that repeated genetic testing can be clinically relevant during long-term patient monitoring. Moreover, integrative NGS testing contributes to the consolidated evaluation of results and accurate assessment of individual patient prognosis.

[PMID: 37851120 DOI: 10.1007/s00428-023-03676-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2023] [Revised: 09/20/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
Previous studies in patients with mature B-cell lymphomas (MBCL) have shown that pathogenic TP53 aberrations are associated with inferior chemotherapeutic efficacy and survival outcomes. In solid malignancies, p53 immunohistochemistry is commonly used as a surrogate marker to assess TP53 mutations, but this correlation is not yet well-established in lymphomas. This study evaluated the accuracy of p53 immunohistochemistry as a surrogate marker for TP53 mutational analysis in a large real-world patient cohort of 354 MBCL patients within routine diagnostic practice. For each case, p53 IHC was assigned to one of three categories: wild type (staining 1-50% of tumor cells with variable nuclear staining), abnormal complete absence or abnormal overexpression (strong and diffuse staining > 50% of tumor cells). Pathogenic variants of TP53 were identified with a targeted next generation sequencing (tNGS) panel. Wild type p53 expression was observed in 267 cases (75.4%), complete absence in twenty cases (5.7%) and the overexpression pattern in 67 cases (18.9%). tNGS identified a pathogenic TP53 mutation in 102 patients (29%). The overall accuracy of p53 IHC was 84.5% (95% CI 80.3-88.1), with a robust specificity of 92.1% (95% CI 88.0- 95.1), but a low sensitivity of 65.7% (95% CI 55.7-74.8). These results suggest that the performance of p53 IHC is insufficient as a surrogate marker for TP53 mutations in our real-world routine diagnostic workup of MBCL patients. By using p53 immunohistochemistry alone, there is a significant risk a TP53 mutation will be missed, resulting in misevaluation of a high-risk patient. Therefore, molecular analysis is recommended in all MBCL patients, especially for further development of risk-directed therapies based on TP53 mutation status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small molecules targeting Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) and B-cell lymphoma-2 have become the standard of care for the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), replacing chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) in most clinical settings. Ongoing trials explore targeted combinations and minimal residual disease-driven treatment cessation. These dramatic shifts in the current and upcoming treatment landscape of CLL raise the need to reevaluate existing prognostic markers and develop novel ones. SUMMARY This review examines prognostic markers in CLL patients treated with standard and investigational targeted therapies. Specifically, initial treatment of TP53 aberrant patients with a BTK inhibitor can achieve 70% progression-free survival (PFS) at 5 years, outperforming the 15% 5-year PFS with a CIT regimen containing fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR). The prognostic implications of the immunoglobulin heavy chain variable gene (IGHV) mutation status have also changed. Unmutated IGHV is associated with inferior PFS and overall survival after FCR and inferior PFS with fixed-duration therapy with venetoclax and anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody but not with continuous BTK inhibitor treatment. KEY MESSAGES (1) Genetic variables (e.g., TP53 aberration, IGHV mutation, complex karyotype) have a prognostic significance in CLL patients treated with targeted therapy. (2) Understanding the prognostic and predictive values of these markers is critical for the development of a risk-adapted treatment strategy in CLL.

Abstract
Nodal peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL), the most common PTCLs, are generally treated with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP)-based curative-intent chemotherapy. Recent molecular data have assisted in prognosticating these PTCLs, but most reports lack detailed baseline clinical characteristics and treatment courses. We retrospectively evaluated cases of PTCL treated with CHOP-based chemotherapy that had tumors sequenced by the Memorial Sloan Kettering Integrated Mutational Profiling of Actionable Cancer Targets next-generation sequencing panel to identify variables correlating with inferior survival. We identified 132 patients who met these criteria. Clinical factors correlating with an increased risk of progression (by multivariate analysis) included advanced-stage disease and bone marrow involvement. The only somatic genetic aberrancies correlating with inferior progression-free survival (PFS) were TP53 mutations and TP53/17p deletions. PFS remained inferior when stratifying by TP53 mutation status, with a median PFS of 4.5 months for PTCL with a TP53 mutation (n = 21) vs 10.5 months for PTCL without a TP53 mutation (n = 111). No TP53 aberrancy correlated with inferior overall survival (OS). Although rare (n = 9), CDKN2A-deleted PTCL correlated with inferior OS, with a median of 17.6 months vs 56.7 months for patients without CDKN2A deletions. This retrospective study suggests that patients with PTCL with TP53 mutations experience inferior PFS when treated with curative-intent chemotherapy, warranting prospective confirmation.

Abstract
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a common type of adult leukemia that occurs in Western countries, and its incidence has gradually increased in China in recent years. The characteristics of CLL are highly heterogeneous. Despite promising response rates achieved with targeted therapy, new targets still need to be expanded due to the heterogeneous of disease. Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi) has been used in the treatment of TP53 mutation. In this report, we present a case with myeloid differentiation primary response 88 (MYD88) mutation who developed a TP53 mutation after application of BTKi. Here, the patient was CLL unmutated (U-CLL) with MYD88 (L265P) mutation before initial treatment. After traditional treatment, the effect was not good, and BTKi was used for treatment, then TP53 mutation appeared. It is well known that immunoglobulin heavy chain unmutated (IGHV-U) and TP53 mutation in CLL indicate poor prognosis. The case suggests that whenever TP53 mutation occurs, BTKi is the best choice. This result is considered to be related to signal pathways. We aim to add to the collective knowledge by highlighting this rare cases of CLL with MYD88 (L265P) mutation in an Asian patient.

Abstract
TP53 aberrations, including mutations and deletion of 17p13, are important adverse prognostic markers in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) but are less studied in high count monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis (HCMBL), an asymptomatic pre-malignant stage of CLL. Here we estimated the prevalence and impact of TP53 aberrations in 1,230 newly diagnosed treatment-naïve individuals (849 CLL, 381 HCMBL). We defined TP53 state as: wild-type (no TP53 mutations and normal 17p), single-hit (del(17p) or one TP53 mutation), or multi-hit (TP53 mutation and del(17p), TP53 mutation and loss of heterozygosity, or multiple TP53 mutations). Cox regression was used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for time to first treatment and overall survival by TP53 state. We found 64 (7.5%) CLL patients and 17 (4.5%) HCMBL individuals had TP53 mutations with variant allele fraction >10%. Del(17p) was present in 58 (6.8%) of CLL and 11 (2.9%) of HCMBL cases. Most individuals had wild-type (N=1,128, 91.7%) TP53 state, followed by multi-hit (N=55, 4.5%) and then single-hit (N=47, 3.8%) TP53 state. The risk of shorter time to therapy and death increased with the number of TP53 abnormalities. Compared to wild-type patients, multi-hit patients had 3-fold and single-hit patients had 1.5-fold increased risk of requiring therapy. Multi-hit patients also had 2.9-fold increased risk of death compared to wild-type. These results remained stable after accounting for other known poor prognostic factors. Both TP53 mutations and del(17p) may provide important prognostic information for HCMBL and CLL that would be missed if only one were measured.

Abstract
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a clinically and biologically heterogeneous disease with varying outcomes. In the last decade, the application of next-generation sequencing technologies has allowed extensive mapping of disease-specific genomic, epigenomic, immunogenetic, and transcriptomic signatures linked to CLL pathogenesis. These technologies have improved our understanding of the impact of tumor heterogeneity and evolution on disease outcome, although they have mostly been performed on bulk preparations of nucleic acids. As a further development, new technologies have emerged in recent years that allow high-resolution mapping at the single-cell level. These include single-cell RNA sequencing for assessment of the transcriptome, both of leukemic and non-malignant cells in the tumor microenvironment; immunogenetic profiling of B and T cell receptor rearrangements; single-cell sequencing methods for investigation of methylation and chromatin accessibility across the genome; and targeted single-cell DNA sequencing for analysis of copy-number alterations and single nucleotide variants. In addition, concomitant profiling of cellular subpopulations, based on protein expression, can also be obtained by various antibody-based approaches. In this review, we discuss different single-cell sequencing technologies and how they have been applied so far to study CLL onset and progression, also in response to treatment. This latter aspect is particularly relevant considering that we are moving away from chemoimmunotherapy to targeted therapies, with a potentially distinct impact on clonal dynamics. We also discuss new possibilities, such as integrative multi-omics analysis, as well as inherent limitations of the different single-cell technologies, from sample preparation to data interpretation using available bioinformatic pipelines. Finally, we discuss future directions in this rapidly evolving field.

Abstract
Genetic diagnostics of hematological malignancies has evolved dramatically over the years, from chromosomal banding analysis to next-generation sequencing, with a corresponding increased capacity to detect clinically relevant prognostic and predictive biomarkers. In diagnostics of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), we currently apply fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based analysis to detect recurrent chromosomal aberrations (del(11q), del(13q), del(17p) and trisomy 12) as well as targeted sequencing (IGHV and TP53 mutational status) for risk-stratifying purposes. These analyses are performed before start of any line of treatment and assist in clinical decision-making including selection of targeted therapy (BTK and BCL2 inhibitors). Here, we present the current view on the genomic landscape of CLL, including an update on recent advances with potential for clinical translation. We discuss different state-of-the-art technologies that are applied to enable precision diagnostics in CLL and highlight important genomic markers with current prognostic and/or predictive impact as well as those of prospective clinical relevance. In the coming years, it will be important to develop more comprehensive genomic analyses that can capture all types of relevant genetic aberrations, but also to develop highly sensitive assays to detect minor mutations that affect therapy response or confer resistance to targeted therapies. Finally, we will bring up the potential of new technologies and multi-omics analysis to further subclassify the disease and facilitate implementation of precision medicine approaches in this still incurable disease.

The spectrum of subclonal TP53 mutations in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: A next generation sequencing retrospective study. Hematol Oncol 2022; 40:962-975.

Abstract
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a hematological disorder with complex clinical and biological behavior. TP53 mutational status and cytogenetic assessment of the deletion of the corresponding locus (17p13.1) are considered the most relevant biomarkers associated with pharmaco-predictive response, chemo-refractoriness, and worse prognosis in CLL patients. The implementation of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) methodologies in the clinical laboratory allows for comprehensively analyzing the TP53 gene and detecting mutations with allele frequencies ≤10%, that is, "subclonal mutations". We retrospectively studied TP53 gene mutational status by NGS in 220 samples from 171 CLL patients. TP53 mutations were found in 60/220 (27.3%) samples and 47/171 (27.5%) patients. Interestingly, subclonal mutations could be detected in 31/60 samples (51.7%) corresponding to 25 patients (25/47, 53.2%). We identified 44 distinct subclonal TP53 mutations clustered in the central DNA-binding domain of p53 protein (exons 5-8, codons 133-286). Missense mutations were predominant (>80%), whereas indels, nonsense, and splice site variants were less represented. All subclonal TP53 variants but one [p.(Pro191fs)] were already described in NCI and/or Seshat databases as "damaging" and/or "probably damaging" mutations (38/44, 86% and 6/44, 14%, respectively). Longitudinal samples were available for 37 patients. Almost half of them displayed at least one TP53 mutant subclone, which could be alone (4/16, 25%) or concomitant with other TP53 mutant clonal ones (12/16, 75%); different patterns of mutational dynamics overtimes were documented. In conclusion, utilization of NGS in our "real-life" cohort of CLL patients demonstrated an elevated frequency of subclonal TP53 mutations. This finding indicates the need for precisely identifying these mutations during disease since the clones carrying them may become predominant and be responsible for therapy failures.

Old and New Facts and Speculations on the Role of the B Cell Receptor in the Origin of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232214249. [PMID: 36430731 PMCID: PMC9693457 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232214249] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2022] [Revised: 11/09/2022] [Accepted: 11/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
The engagement of the B cell receptor (BcR) on the surface of leukemic cells represents a key event in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) since it can lead to the maintenance and expansion of the neoplastic clone. This notion was initially suggested by observations of the CLL BcR repertoire and of correlations existing between certain BcR features and the clinical outcomes of single patients. Based on these observations, tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), which block BcR signaling, have been introduced in therapy with the aim of inhibiting CLL cell clonal expansion and of controlling the disease. Indeed, the impressive results obtained with these compounds provided further proof of the role of BcR in CLL. In this article, the key steps that led to the determination of the role of BcR are reviewed, including the features of the CLL cell repertoire and the fine mechanisms causing BcR engagement and cell signaling. Furthermore, we discuss the biological effects of the engagement, which can lead to cell survival/proliferation or apoptosis depending on certain intrinsic cell characteristics and on signals that the micro-environment can deliver to the leukemic cells. In addition, consideration is given to alternative mechanisms promoting cell proliferation in the absence of BcR signaling, which can explain in part the incomplete effectiveness of TKI therapies. The role of the BcR in determining clonal evolution and disease progression is also described. Finally, we discuss possible models to explain the selection of a special BcR set during leukemogenesis. The BcR may deliver activation signals to the cells, which lead to their uncontrolled growth, with the possible collaboration of other still-undefined events which are capable of deregulating the normal physiological response of B cells to BcR-delivered stimuli.

Abstract
Treatment options with targeted agents have changed the treatment landscape of CLL profoundly. Besides chemoimmunotherapy, treatment regimen approved for frontline therapy include continuous treatment with BTK inhibitors like ibrutinib and acalabrutinib or fixed-duration regimen like venetoclax-obinutuzumab with the approval of venetoclax-ibrutinib to be awaited. Although these agents have usually manageable side effects, toxicities might limit choices for the individual patient. We here discuss latest trial data and propose a treatment algorithm for frontline treatment of CLL according to fitness and relevant genetic risk factors like IGHV mutational status and TP53 aberrations.

Abstract
Glioma is the most common intracranial malignancy. TP53 is a crucial tumor suppressor gene that plays an essential regulatory role in cell growth, apoptosis, and DNA repair. The TP53 rs1042522 C>G polymorphism has been reported to be strongly associated with various tumor risks. To assess the TP53 rs1042522 C>G polymorphism with glioma risk in Chinese children, we determined the genotypes of the TP53 rs1042522 C>G polymorphism in 171 glioma patients and 228 cancer-free controls by Taqman assay. We assessed the association of the polymorphism with glioma risk using odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) generated by logistic regression models. We also performed stratified analyses by age, gender, tumor subtypes, and clinical stages, but no significant association was detected between TP53 rs1042522 C>G polymorphism and childhood glioma risk. These results suggest that the TP53 rs1042522 C>G polymorphism is not associated with glioma risk in Chinese children. Subsequent studies with a larger sample size are needed to validate our results.

Five Percent Variant Allele Frequency Is a Reliable Reporting Threshold for TP53 Variants Detected by Next Generation Sequencing in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia in the Clinical Setting.

Abstract
The clinical significance of small TP53 clones detected with next generation sequencing (NGS) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia is an issue of active debate. According to the official guidelines, treatment decisions should be guided only by variants with variant allele frequency (VAF) ≥10%. We present data on 325 consecutive patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia analyzed with NGS. In total 47 pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP), TP53 variants were detected in 26 patients (8%). Eleven of these (23%) were in the 5% to 10% VAF range and reported according to our institutional policy. All TP53 variants in the 5% to 10% VAF range were confirmed (100% concordance) with a second NGS panel. Our results where further validated with the performance of Sanger sequencing and digital droplet PCR (ddPCR). In 12 patients with available fluorescence in situ hybridization data and TP53 mutations within 5% to 10% VAF, deletion of chromosome 17p (del(17p)) was detectable in only 1 patient. We propose a robust diagnostic algorithm, which allows the safe detection and reporting of TP53 variants with VAF down to 5% in the clinical setting. Our study provides evidence that NGS is equally potent to detect variants with VAF 5% to 10% compared to those with VAF 10% to 15%, highlighting the urgent need for harmonization of NGS methodologies across diagnostic laboratories.

Abstract
Limited data exists to show the correlation of (tumour protein 53) TP53 mutation detected by Next generation sequencing (NGS) and the presence/absence of deletions of 17p13 detected by FISH. The study which is the largest series to date includes 2332 CLL patients referred for analysis of del(17p) by FISH and TP53 mutations by NGS before treatment. Using a 10% variant allele frequency (VAF) threshold, cases were segregated into high burden mutations (≥10%) and low burden mutations (<10%). TP53 aberrations (17p [del(17p)] and/or TP53 mutation) were detected in 320/2332 patients (13.7%). Using NGS analysis, 429 TP53 mutations were identified in 303 patients (13%). Of these 238 (79%) and 65 (21%) were cases with high burden and low burden mutations respectively. In our cohort, 2012 cases did not demonstrate a TP53 aberration (86.3%). A total of 159 cases showed TP53 mutations in the absence of del(17p) (49/159 with low burden TP53 mutations) and 144 cases had both TP53 mutation and del(17p) (16/144 with low burden mutations). Only 17/2332 (0.7%) cases demonstrated del(17p) with no TP53 mutation. Validated NGS protocols should be used in clinical decision making to avoid missing low-burden TP53 mutations and can detect the vast majority of TP53 aberrations.

Lazarian G, Cymbalista F, Baran-Marszak F. Impact of Low-Burden TP53 Mutations in the Management of CLL. Front Oncol 2022; 12:841630. [PMID: 35211418 PMCID: PMC8861357 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.841630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2021] [Accepted: 01/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), TP53 abnormalities are associated with reduced survival and resistance to chemoimmunotherapy (CIT). The recommended threshold to clinically report TP53 mutations is a matter of debate given that next-generation sequencing technologies can detect mutations with a limit of detection of approximately 1% with high confidence. However, the clinical impact of low-burden TP53 mutations with a variant allele frequency (VAF) of less than 10% remains unclear. Longitudinal analysis before and after fludarabine based on NGS sequencing demonstrated that low-burden TP53 mutations were present before the onset of treatment and expanded at relapse to become the predominant clone. Most studies evaluating the prognostic or predictive impact of low-burden TP53 mutations in untreated patients show that low-burden TP53 mutations have the same unfavorable prognostic impact as clonal defects. Moreover, studies designed to assess the predictive impact of low-burden TP53 mutations showed that TP53 mutations, irrespective of mutation burden, have an inferior impact on overall survival for CIT-treated patients. As low-burden and high-burden TP53 mutations have comparable clinical impacts, redefining the VAF threshold may have important implications for the clinical management of CLL.

Abstract
Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia carrying a single TP53 hit (chromosome 17p deletion or single TP53 mutation) demonstrate excellent progression-free survival and overall survival on ibrutinib compared with cases harboring multiple TP53 hits. Testing TP53 deletion/mutation combining FISH and deep next-generation sequencing should be performed for a correct patient evaluation.See related article by Brieghel et al., p. 4531.
