Evaluation of a father and son with atypical chronic myeloid leukemia with SETBP1 mutations and a review of the literature

Abstract: We report the case of a father and son diagnosed with atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML). Both patients harbored SETBP1 mutations, which are present in 24.3% of aCML patients. Moreover, both shared the variant encoding p.Pro737His, but the aCML severity was greater in the son because of the presence of two other missense mutations causing p.Asp868Asn and p.Ser885Arg alterations. SETBP1 mutations may be associated with an adverse prognosis, so their detection would help in the diagnosis of aCML and the de… Show more

“…Other strongly linked hematological malignancies, such as chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL), CMML, unclassified MDS, myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), and secondary acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) evolving from MDS [ 25 29 ], are also related to SETBP1 . Despite the fact that mutations in both ASXL1 and SETBP1 are generally associated with an adverse prognosis [ 20 , 21 , 26 , 30 ], our patient’s symptoms seemed not to be related to his mutations in these genes. CCAAT enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα), a general inhibitor of cell proliferation and a tumor suppressor [ 31 ] plays a pivotal role in early granulocyte development.…”

“…In addition, SETBP1 mutations have been reported to drive leukemic transformation in ASXL transcriptional regulator 1 (ASXL1)-mutated myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) ( 20 ). Moreover, a father and son diagnosed with atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML) were both found to carry SETBP1 mutations, which are present in 24.3% of aCML patients ( 21 ). Therefore, SETBP1 mutations are believed to be a biomarker in disease diagnosis ( 22 , 23 ).…”
