SETBP1 mutation

On multivariate analysis, age ≥ 70 years (p = 0.004) and higher peripheral blood blasts (p = 0.02) had worse OS. Patients with Ile871m had lower OS when compared with Asp868m and Gly870m (5.5 months vs. 17.4 and 17 months, respectively, p = 0.1).

According to the univariable analyses of OS, age ≥ 65 years (P < 0.001), hemoglobin concentration (Hb) < 80 g/L (P = 0.090), platelet count (PLT) ≥ 800 × 10E + 9/L (P = 0.087), bone marrow RS < 15% (P < 0.001), the Revised International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS-R) cytogenetic category intermediate/poor/very poor (P = 0.005), SETBP1 mutation (P = 0.061) and SRSF2 mutation (P < 0.001) were associated with poor survival. Based on variables selected from univariable analyses, two separate survival prediction models, a clinical survival model, and a clinical-molecular survival model, were developed using multivariable analyses with the minimum value of the Akaike information criterion (AIC) to specifically predict outcomes in patients with MDS/MPN-SF3B1-T according to the 2022 WHO classification.

Compared to a cohort of therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome, tCMML had lower TP53 mutation frequency (12% vs 44.4%, P <.001) and less unfavorable outcomes. In summary, tCMML does not exhibit the high-risk features and poor outcomes of t-MNs.

Clinically, a striking difference in disease aggressiveness was noted, with SETBP1-mutated patients showing a much worse clinical course. As opposite to myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms, where SETBP1 mutations are mostly found as a late clonal event, single-cell clonal hierarchy reconstruction in three TN-PMF patients from our cohort revealed SETBP1 to be a very early event, suggesting that the phenotype of the different SETBP1+ disorders may be shaped by the opposite hierarchy of the same clonal SETBP1 variants.

STAG2 and SETBP1 mutations were also exclusive in ASXL1/SRSF2 co-mutated patients and associated with divergent chronic myeloid phenotypes. Our findings support that certain multi-mutant genotypes may be biologically relevant in ASXL1-mutated myeloid disease.

All patients were given Demethylated drug in combination with low-dose chemotherapy, 10 patients decitabine at a dose of 20 mg/m2 for 5 days, supplemented with cytarabine (50-100 mg/m2×3~5 days), and /or etoposide (50 mg/m2×3~5 days), 6 patients Azacytidine at a dose of 75mg/m2 for 7 days combined with homoharringtonine 2mg/m2 for 5-7 days. Demethylated drug in combination with low-dose chemotherapy could reduce JMML patients' tumor burden, improve the general condition, and obtain a clinical response rate of 81.8% after 3 cycles therapy. Therefore, such a combination regimen could be used as a therapeutic option for JMML before HSCT.

However, the physiological role of SETBP1 and the molecular mechanisms by which the mutations lead to disease progression have not yet been fully elucidated. In this review, we will describe the current epidemiological data on SETBP1 mutations and shed light on the current knowledge about the SET-dependent and -independent functions of SETBP1.

Contrary to the evidence that SETBP1 mutations are restricted to myeloid malignancies, dependency on SETBP1 mRNA expression is not observed in AML. These unexpected results shed light on the unrecognized idea that a physiologically nonessential gene can act as an oncogene when the machinery of protein degradation is damaged.

Additional immunological analyses revealed that favorable immune infiltration, tumor immunogenicity, and immune response circuits were enriched in SETBP1-MUT patients. Overall, our findings suggest that SETBP1 mutations may serve as a new biomarker for stratifying beneficiaries of ICI treatments in melanoma and NSCLC, which provides possible evidence for tailoring clinical immunotherapeutic strategies.

We propose that the presence of co-occurring ASXL1, SRSF2, and SETBP1 mutations can be diagnostic of a subtype of MDS/MPN with neutrophilia if clinical and morphological findings align. Our report underscores the association between genotype and phenotype within MDS/MPN and that genomic signatures should guide categorization of these entities.

The mechanistic basis of MDS remain largely unknown, despite the identification of recurrent cytogenetic abnormalities as well as the discovery of various gene mutations mediating MDS pathogenesis and progression. Isolated trisomy 18 (as well as the cases of other various chromosomal aberrations) is very rare and uncommon in MDS. Three genes located at chromosome 18 may be involved in the pathogenesis of MDS associated to trisomy 18: BCL2, SETBP1 and SMAD4.

The de novo SETBP1 mutation was the genetic cause of SETBP1-HD in the family. BLCA and STAD might be related to SETBP1 overexpression.

Taken together, CN per se contributes to high level of CH already in the young age, as compared to healthy population. Acquisition of multiple genetic lesions, especially RUNX1, SETBP1, ASXL1, TP53, PTPN11 in association with CSF3R mutation might be a strong indicator of the advanced pre-leukemia stage in CN patients at neutropenia stage and requires closer patient follow up.

This upregulation of Myc can be reversed by LSD1 inhibitors. In summary, we find that SETBP1 mutations promote aggressive hematopoietic cell expansion when expressed with mutant CSF3R through the upregulation of Myc-associated gene expression programs.

Chronic neutrophilic leukemia may be more inclined to coexist with plasma cell disorder. The CSF3R mutation in CNL-PCD is still the most common mutated gene compared with isolated CNL. Mutations in SETBP1 and ASXL1 may be poor prognostic factors for CNL-PCD.

Our results confirm the ASXL1 c.1934dupG variant occurs in a similar patient population to other ASXL1 mutations, and further supports its pathogenicity in myeloid neoplasia. Subset analysis suggests that ASXL1 c.1934dupG and ASXL1 other may be associated with certain phenotypic and co-mutational tendencies. Thus, ASXL1 mutation site may be an important variable in some patients and should be considered in future mechanistic and clinical studies.

The presence of AML-MRC-related mutations can reveal a subset of patients with de novo AML similar to patients with AML-MRC.

Our results suggest that DMRGM adversely impact the outcomes of ELN favorable group patients, particularly those with mutated NPM1. Further studies are warranted to confirm our observations.

The patient did not use a JAK-STAT pathway inhibitor (ruxolitinib) but started on hydroxyurea and alpha-interferon and developed pruritus after 4 months of diagnosis and nasal hemorrhage 1 month later. We repeated NGS and found that three additional mutations were detected: ASXL1, PRKDC, MYOM2; variant allele frequency (VAF) of the prior mutations in CSF3R, SETBP1, and SRSF2 increased. The concurrence of CSF3RT618I, ASXL1, SETBP1, and SRSF2 mutation may be a mutationally detrimental combination and contribute to disease progression and AML transformation, as well as the nonspecific treatment of hydroxyurea and alpha-interferon, but the significance and role of PRKDC and MYOM2 mutations were not undetermined.

Cells expressing NRAS and SETBP1 are sensitive to inhibitors of the MAPK pathway, and treatment with the MEK inhibitor trametinib conferred a survival benefit in a mouse model of NRAS/SETBP1-mutant disease. Our data demonstrate that despite driving enhanced MAPK signaling, SETBP1-mutant cells remain susceptible to trametinib in vitro and in vivo, providing encouraging preclinical data for the use of trametinib in SETBP1-mutant disease.

aCML is characterized by high frequencies of ASXL1, SRSF2, and SETBP1 mutations and is associated with a high risk of acute myeloid leukemia transformation. Response and survival outcomes with current therapies remain poor. The incorporation of age, platelet counts, bone marrow blast percentages, and LDH levels can allow survival prediction, and allogeneic stem cell transplantation should be considered for all eligible patients.
