Description

Principal Investigator: James R. Downing, MD, Dept. of Pathology, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Memphis, TN, USA MeSH: Acute Myeloid Leukemia https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/gap/cgi-bin/study.cgi?study_id=phs000414 Pediatric *de novo* acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease that can be divided into clinically distinct subtypes based on the presence of specific chromosomal abnormalities or gene alterations. One of the best characterized subtypes of AML involves leukemias with alterations of the core-binding factor (CBF)-complex, which comprises the FAB subtypes M2 and M4Eo and associates with a favorable outcome. Patients with the AML M2 subtype harbor a translocation between chromosomes 8 and 21 [t(8;21)] that yields the chimeric fusion gene *RUNX1(AML1)-RUNX1T1(ETO)*, while patients with AML M4Eo express the chimeric fusion gene *CBFβ-SMMHC(MYH11)* as a result of an inversion/translocation event of chromosome 16 [inv(16)/t(16;16)]. In an effort to define the total complement of genetic changes in CBF-leukemia, we performed paired-end whole genome sequencing (WGS) on diagnostic leukemia blasts and matched germ line samples from 17 pediatric CBF-leukemia patients using the Illumina platform. Somatic alterations, including single nucleotide variations (SNVs) and structural variations (SVs), including insertions, deletions, inversions, and inter- and intra-chromosomal rearrangements, were detected using complementary analysis pipelines (Bambino, CREST and CONSERTING). Recurrent screening of identified mutations will be performed in a cohort of approximately 94 cases of CBF-leukemias.

    Eligibility Criteria

    Inclusion and exclusion criteria
    Description

    Inclusion and exclusion criteria

    Cases of core-binding factor leukemia and their matched normal DNA. The cases were selected based on if they had appropriate consent for genetic studies and suitable material for sequencing (high purity tumor populations and available normal DNA obtained at disease remission).
