Abstract
dic(7;9) is a rare (<1%) and recurrent abnormality in both pediatric and adult B-ALL, resulting in partial monosomy of chromosomes 7p and 9p. Co-occurrence of dic(7;9) with PAX5 gene alterations including deletions, mutations and amplification have been reported. PAX5 encodes the B lymphoid transcription factor gene that is important in regulating B cell lineage differentiation, leading to B-cell development and may play a crucial role in B lymphoid leukemogenesis.
Here, we present two cases of pediatric B-ALL with dic(7;9) with complex genomic aberrations.
Case 1: is a four year old female who presented in 2024 with orbital and left sinus maxillary masses, anemia, fever and leukocytosis with peripheral blasts. Karyotype and fish were complex with 45,XX,der(7)dic(7;9)(p11.2;p13)del(7)(p13p11.2)t(7;20)(p13;q11.2),der(20)t(7;20)(p13;q11.2)[13]/46,XX[7]. SNP array revealed loss of 7p and 9p including IKAROS and PAX5, respectively.
Cerebral sinus fluid demonstrated a leukocytosis with leukemic blasts, resulting in a CNS3b classification. She had negative minimal residual disease at the end of induction on a very high-risk standard of care protocol and on consolidation therapy.
Case 2: is a 10 year old male referred in 2022 for a month of fever and fatigue.. karyotype was complex with several rearrangements. 45,XY,dic(7)t(7;9)(p13;p13),-9,der(10)t(9;10)(q34.1;q22),der(12)t(7;12)(p13;p13),der(13)t(10;13)(q22;q34)[11]/46,XY[9].
The patient was treated on a standard risk standard of care protocol and had negative minimal residual disease at the end of induction. He remains in remission during maintenance therapy.
Given the two dic (7;9) cases described here have complex karyotypes, it is possible that PAX5 and IKZF1 alterations may be contributing to this complex cytogenetic entity.
期刊介绍:
The aim of Cancer Genetics is to publish high quality scientific papers on the cellular, genetic and molecular aspects of cancer, including cancer predisposition and clinical diagnostic applications. Specific areas of interest include descriptions of new chromosomal, molecular or epigenetic alterations in benign and malignant diseases; novel laboratory approaches for identification and characterization of chromosomal rearrangements or genomic alterations in cancer cells; correlation of genetic changes with pathology and clinical presentation; and the molecular genetics of cancer predisposition. To reach a basic science and clinical multidisciplinary audience, we welcome original full-length articles, reviews, meeting summaries, brief reports, and letters to the editor.
