Abstract:
10605 Background: Mutations in TP53 and PPM1D are putative drivers associated with therapy related-myeloid neoplasm (T-MN) and have been identified in pre-treatment blood samples obtained at the time of primary malignancy, predating clinically evident T-MN. Genomic analysis of patients(pts) who undergo leukemogenic therapies will help understand T-MN biology and devise risk mitigation strategies. PRRT (Lu 177) for neuroendocrine tumors is associated with enhanced risk of T-MNs. The mechanism for T-MN induced by PRRT is largely elusive due to the novelty of this drug. Methods: We analyzed initial (n=13) and serial blood samples (n=4) prior to and following PRRT for clonal mutations in order to elucidate the role of PRRT in exerting selective pressures on HSCs. Genomic DNA was analyzed using a targeted myeloid 100-gene panel and a variant allele frequency (VAF) cutoff 1% was used to call clonal hematopoiesis (CH). Results: Fifty-four percent pts had CH, despite relatively young age of cohort (median age 58 years, range 41-75) and minimal chemo-radiotherapy exposure; baseline characteristics and molecular profile of cohort is published [Singh et al. Blood 2020; 136 (Supplement 1): 35–36]. Serial sample analysis in 4 pts (Table 1) demonstrates that PRRT exposure is associated with clonal evolution and accompanying cytopenias in 75% (3/4) pts. Pt-1 (age 67) with normal baseline hemogram developed persistent cytopenias after PRRT, accompanied by emergence and expansion of mutant- PPM1D (m PPM1D; VAF 20%). These data suggest that cytopenias result from repopulation of the HSC compartment by m PPM1D cells. In Pts 2 and 3 (age 74 and 75), we note expansion of m TP53 and m PPM1D clones respectively, also associated with the development of cytopenias. Pt-4 was younger (age 59) and developed no cytopenias. Exposure to PRRT was associated with loss of m TET2 and m DDX41, possibly due to lack of clonal fitness of m TET2/DDX41 clones and the relatively young HSC microenvironment. Conclusions: We conclude that mutations in PPM1D and TP53 are clinically relevant, contribute to clonal cytopenias and may increase risk of future T-MN. The temporal association of m TP53 and m PPM1D expansion with PRRT exposure in our analysis suggests selection of these clones in response to PRRT-induced stress, outcompeting wild type and less therapy-resistant HSCs. Our study along with others will inform future efforts to strategize methods of surveillance and early detection for clonality assessment and chemoprevention, to reduce adverse effects of leukemogenic therapies.[Table: see text]
