Cytogenetic and molecular landscape and its potential clinical significance in Hispanic CMML patients from Puerto Rico

Abstract: Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a clonal hematopoietic neoplasm that exhibits myelodysplastic and myeloproliferative characteristics with heterogeneous clinical and pathological features. There are limited publications on the ethnic and racial disparity of cytogenetics and genomics in CMML patients. This study aims to define the cytogenetic and molecular landscape in Hispanic CMML patients from Puerto Rico and explore its possible clinical significance. One hundred and eleven (111) Hispanic CMML pati… Show more

“…Thirty-five studies were used for the analysis of fibrinogen levels in both severe and non-severe groups 4 , 5 , 34 65 ( Table 1 ). Fibrinogen levels have been reported in 2207 severe patients with COVID-19 and 6057 non-severe patients with COVID-19.…”

“…Racial disparities of cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities could be an explanation for lower mortality rates among the Puerto Rican population when compared to other racial/ethnic groups. A study among Hispanics from Puerto Rico living in California, diagnosed from 2009 to 2018 with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), found a higher rate of mutated TET2 and wild ASXL1 [ 22 ]. Mutated TET2 and wild ASXL1 are associated with a better prognosis of CMML.…”

“…Mutated TET2 and wild ASXL1 are associated with a better prognosis of CMML. However, the higher rates of mutated TET2 and wild ASXL1 among Hispanics in the same study may explain the unfavorable prognosis of AML in Hispanics [ 22 ]. Also, a recent study among USH in Texas demonstrated worse overall survival for Hispanic patients with AML and CML living in El Paso near the US/Mexico border compared to USH living elsewhere in Texas [ 23 ].…”

“…These include acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and solid tumors, such as bladder cancer. Its expression is also associated with poor prognosis (Cristóbal et al, 2010; Eisfeld et al, 2020; Elena et al, 2016; Hwang et al, 2019; Jiang et al, 2020; Li et al, 2021; Lucas et al, 2018; Martín et al, 2020; Robinson et al, 2020; Tang et al, 2022). The major cause of elevated SETBP1 expression is mutations in and around the SKI region; however, there are also known cases that occur in the absence of SETBP1 mutations (discussed later).…”
