Clinical features and management of germline CEBPA-mutated carriers.
Leukemia Research 2024 Februrary 4
Familial acute myeloid leukemia (AML) pedigrees with germline CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-α (CEBPA) mutation have been rarely reported due to insufficient knowledge of their clinical features. Here, we report two Chinese families with multiple AML cases carrying germline CEBPA mutations, one of which had 11 cases spanning four consecutive generations. Additionally, we collected clinical data of 57 AML patients from 22 families with germline CEBPA mutations, with 58.3% of them harboring double CEBPA mutations. The first mutation frequently occurred at the N-terminal of CEBP/α (78.6%), resulting in an exclusive expression of p30 of CEBPA (CEBPAp30 ). The second mutation was mostly found at the C-terminal of CEBP/α (CEBPAothers ). Germline CEBPAp30 carriers had higher incidences of AML (80.36% vs. 42.86%) and earlier onset of AML (18 vs. 38.5 years old) compared to germline CEBPAothers carriers. Despite the high rates of relapse, most familial AML cases exhibited favorable overall survival (OS), with germline CEBPAp30 carriers having better survival outcomes (>25 years vs. 11 years for CEBPAothers carriers). Among the 27 healthy germline CEBPA-mutated carriers, we detected a pre-leukemia clone harboring a pathogenic IDH2 variant (R140Q)in one individual. These findings should aid in the genetic counseling and management of AML patients and healthy carriers with germline CEBPA mutations.
