PDGFRB mutation

A p.Tyr562Asp somatic mutation was detected in the PDGFRB gene; somatic mutations at the same codon have been reported in fusiform cerebral aneurysms. These results widen the concept on the role of somatic mutations in cerebral aneurysms, indicating their possible role in the more common saccular aneurysm, similarly to the rarer fusiform aneurysm.

Of the 8 patients with available follow-up, two died of disease, 3 are currently alive with disease, and 3 have no evidence of disease. The correct recognition of tumors with the KAT6B/A::KANSL1 fusion is essential because despite the bland morphological features of most cases, these tumors have a propensity for aggressive behavior.

We conclude that metastatic PitNET is not the only high-grade form of pituitary NEN. If further confirmed, these histopathologic and/or molecular features could provide advanced warning of biological aggressiveness and be applied towards a future grading scheme.

In particular, mutations in the PDGFRB gene lead to constitutively activated ERK and nuclear factor κB signaling pathways, which can be targeted with tyrosine kinase inhibitors. In this review, we describe how low frequency somatic variants in oncogenic and other genes affect the pathogenesis of aneurysm development, with a focus on gene therapy applications, such as endovascular in situ delivery of chemotherapeutics.

Finally, a TPM3::NTRK1 fusion or MAP2K1 deletion were detected in 2 children with systemic JXG who experienced spontaneous disease regression. This study advances the molecular understanding of histiocytic neoplasms and may guide diagnostics and clinical management.

Imatinib sensitivity in vitro suggests perspectives for targeted therapy preventing recurrences in the future. Proprietary or commercial disclosure may be found in the Footnotes and Disclosures at the end of this article.

The results presented in this study show the value and the challenge of a genomics-driven network trial. The data can be also a valuable resource as a validation cohort for Immunotherapy and Target therapy genomic biomarker research.

Appealing patterns of resistance emerged from genomic analysis: the “activating like� signature may help define a specific target among tyrosine kinase inhibitors, while “self-renewal like� patients may benefit from histone deacetylase inhibitors (as we previously published). HOXA genes overexpression open a novel therapeutic options for selected patients.

Through deep transcriptomic characterization combined with conventional diagnostics, this analysis uncovered novel mechanisms of VEN resistance while confirming established ones. The distinct gene expression patterns may help tailor targeted therapies, with patients showing the "activating-like" signature potentially benefiting from tyrosine kinase inhibitors and those with the "self-renewal like" signature possibly responding well to histone deacetylase inhibitors. Furthermore, HOXA gene overexpression presents an exciting therapeutic opportunity for selected patients.

In addition, we report missense alterations in the juxtamembrane domain of PDGFRB in 4 of 5 (80%) sporadic cases, including mutations that have been previously described in sporadic myofibroma and myopericytoma. Therefore, we confirm the neoplastic nature of storiform collagenoma, we expand the spectrum of reported PDGFRB alterations in mesenchymal tumors and we suggest a possible collaborative role for PTEN and PDGFRB in the pathogenesis of storiform collagenoma.

Finally, we classified PNP-associated UCD into four genomic subgroups: IL6ST, PDGFRB, IL6ST-PDGFRB, and an unknown subgroup. In summary, we defined the molecular profile of PNP-associated UCD and identified a potential molecular biomarker for predicting prognosis, which may provide therapeutic targets for treating this severe disorder.

Skin primary glomus tumors show frequent mutations in NOTCH2 and NOTCH3 , including gene fusions and novel truncating mutations. The presence of occasional BRAF and PDGFRB alterations raise the possibility of targeted therapies in clinically-advanced cases of this tumor type.

Prenatal IM diagnosis is difficult. Initial detection is always based on ultrasound. DFIM has high mortality. The germline p.R561C mutation in PDGFRB may cause fetal demise due to severe visceral involvement of IM. Prenatal genetic testing provides a diagnosis before pathological results are available, leading to better counseling and management of pregnancy with a fetus with IM.

Ba/F3 cells expressing STRN3::PDGFRB or ETV6::PDGFRB were sensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and selinexor, but in vitro experiments showed that the combination of imatinib and selinexor had a marked synergistic effect, although only the imatinib alone group could prolong the survival of T-cell blast transformation recipient mice. Our findings demonstrate the leukemogenic effects of the novel fusion gene and provide insights into the clone evolution of AML, which can be influenced by therapy selection. Furthermore, our results provide insight into the potential therapeutic options for patients with this type of mutation, as well as the need for careful consideration of treatment selection to prevent undesirable side effects.

The genomic profile of male pediatric SCB is relatively simple, no other known driver genes have been found except for the ETV6-NTRK3 fusion. Our report will improve our understanding of secretory breast cancer.

By the association of a deep transcriptomic characterization to conventional diagnostics, our analysis suggested novel mechanisms of resistance to VEN based combinations and detected the established ones. RTKs mutations are widespread within resistant patients, suggesting a potential therapy options. However, mutation in thispathway are redundant and not specific, thus hampering the selection of an appropriate target.

Therefore, we found PDGFRB and NOTCH3 mutations to be detectable in a much wider variety of pericytic tumors than previously reported and confirmed myopericytomas, myofibromas, angioleiomyomas, and glomus tumors as members harboring PDGFRB or NOTCH3 mutations. Our results thus suggest that PDGFRB or NOTCH3 mutations are not useful for subclassifying members of the pericytic tumor family.

LRP1B will be a potential ICIs efficacy biomarker in HNSCC.

Moreover, we identified SGPP1, RHOQ, and PDGFRB as potential targets for TP53-mutant COAD, and illuminated that the high-risk patients might benefit from IGFR-3801, Staurosporine, and Sabutoclax...Besides, we identified novel therapeutic targets and potential sensitive agents for TP53-mutant COAD with high risk. Our findings provided not only a new strategy for prognosis management but also new clues for drug application and precision treatment in COAD with TP53 mutations.

This is the first study documenting recurrent hotspot PDGFRB alterations in high-grade sarcomas, which show a predilection for uterine location and myogenic differentiation that fall short of the diagnostic criteria for LMS. Further studies are needed to investigate the therapeutic potential of kinase inhibitors in this group of tumors.

Of the 4 cases with detailed clinical history (median follow-up period 8 months), 3 developed distant metastatic disease (one of which died of disease); one case remained free of disease 3?years following surgical excision. In conclusion, we describe a heterogeneous series of MAML2-rearranged undifferentiated malignant epithelioid neoplasms, a small subset of which may overlap with a recently described MIFS variant with YAP1::MAML2 fusions, further expanding the clinicopathologic spectrum of mesenchymal neoplasms with recurrent MAML2 gene rearrangements.

PDGFRB gene mutations may have an important role in the development of this tumor. Most patients have a good prognosis, and a few cases have malignant biological behavior.

We presented a framework that accurately predicted survival and gene mutations in lung adenocarcinoma patients based on human-interpretable features extracted from H&E slides. Our approach can provide important insights for designing novel cancer treatments, by linking the spatial structure of the TME in lung adenocarcinoma to gene mutations and patient survival. It can also expand our understanding of the effects that the TME has on tumor evolutionary processes. Our approach can be generalized to different cancer types to inform precision medicine strategies.

STAT1 activation was not sensitive to ruxolitinib and did not rely on interferon-JAK2 signalling. Another tyrosine kinase inhibitor, imatinib, blocked signalling by the p.Val665Ala variant at a higher concentration compared with the wild-type receptor...Dasatinib, nilotinib and ponatinib also inhibited the mutant receptor. In conclusion, the p.Val665Ala variant confers unique features to PDGF receptor β compared with other characterized gain-of-function mutants, which may in part explain the particular set of symptoms associated with Penttinen syndrome.

Targeted TKI therapies in the upfront setting are associated with excellent outcomes in patients with MLN-Eos. The elucidation of potential mechanisms needs further exploration.

Several new potentially actionable mutations, including those in RARA, ALK, PTCH1, RET, ROS1, ABL1, and MET, were also found. These findings improve the molecular understanding of this rare malignancy and are expected to provide a basis for developing precision therapeutics for cardiac UPS and intimal sarcomas.

Next Generation molecular analysis using RNA sequencing highlighted the characteristic MIR143-NOTCH gene fusion witch supports the diagnosis of glomus tumor. In this observation, we recall histological and immunohistochemistry features of glomus tumor and we make a synthesis concerning the molecular data recently described in sporadic glomus tumor.

Upfront TKI can potentially suppress, even in some cases eradicate the malignant clone. The study is limited due to small sample size and retrospective nature, and larger study is needed to validate our observation.

PDGFRB-driven IM is clinically challenging due to its fluctuating course and multiple organ involvement in the first years of life. Early molecular genetic analysis is necessary to consider tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment in case of aggressive visceral lesions.

This fusion is highly reminiscent of the COL1A1-PDGFB oncogene associated with dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. This work has implications for the diagnosis and, possibly, the treatment of a subset of myofibromas.

These changes in the tumor microenvironment conferred a growth advantage to the tumors but also rendered them sensitive to pericyte-targeting molecules such as ibrutinib or sunitinib. Overall, these findingds identify EGFR mutations as key regulators of the glioma-to-pericyte transdifferentiation, highlighting the intricate relationship between the tumor cells and their vascular and immune milieu. Our results lay the foundations for a vascular-dependent stratification of gliomas and suggest different therapeutic vulnerabilities determined by the genetic status of EGFR.

Myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with PDGFRA , PGDFRB , FGFR and PCM1 - JAK2 rearrangement or mutations can present as a variety of hematologic neoplasms. Additional cytogenetic abnormalities were present in a subset of patients. Accompanying mutations involving other myeloid associated genes were usually present, and may play a role in response to the treatment and clinical outcome.

Chloroquine treatment strongly reduces the amount of secreted NOTCH3 extracellular domain and decreases signaling...Collectively, our data define a NOTCH3-PDGFRB axis in IMF, where an IMF-mutated NOTCH3 receptor elevates PDGFRB expression. The functional characterization of a ligand-independent gain-of-function NOTCH3 mutation is important for Notch therapy considerations for IMF, including strategies aimed at altering lysosome function.

Functional analysis of these variants has led to the preclinical validation of tyrosine kinase inhibitors targeting PDGF receptors, such as imatinib, as a treatment for some of these conditions. This review summarizes the rapidly expanding knowledge in this field.

BRAF-VE1 was negative in all 37 cases studied, while strong PDGFRB staining was seen in 14 (21%) cases. Additional studies are needed to investigate the genetic alterations in the fusion-negative cases.

Results : As of June 2020, 25 pts with ALL were enrolled and received VEN + CTx; CTx regimens included dexamethasone and/or vincristine and/or peg-asparaginase (D/V/P, n=16) or cytarabine and/or etoposide and/or peg-asparaginase (C, n=9). Our genomic profiling suggests that responses with VEN + CTx occur in pediatric ALL with a variety of mutations, including those with KMT2A rearrangements. However, due to the limited sample size and the overall heterogeneity, further investigation in a larger pt cohort is warranted to determine which mutations confer resistance or sensitivity to VEN.
