Clonal hematopoiesis and risk for hematologic malignancy

Warren, Julia T, Link, Daniel C·2020·Blood

Abstract

Clonal hematopoiesis is common in older persons and is associated with an increased risk of hematologic cancer. Here, we review studies establishing an association between clonal hematopoiesis and hematopoietic malignancy, discuss features of clonal hematopoiesis that are predictive of leukemic progression, and explore the role of hematopoietic stressors in the evolution of clonal hematopoiesis to acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. Clonal hematopoiesis due to point mutations or structural variants, such as copy number alterations, are associated with an approximately 10-fold increased risk of hematopoietic malignancy. Although the absolute risk of hematopoietic malignancy is low, certain features of clonal hematopoiesis may confer a higher risk of transformation, including the presence of TP53 or splicesome gene mutations, a variant allele fraction greater than 10%, the presence of multiple mutations, and altered red blood indices. Clonal hematopoiesis in the setting of peripheral blood cytopenias carries a very high risk of progression to a myeloid malignancy and merits close observation. There is emerging evidence to suggest the hematopoietic stressors contribute both to the development of clonal hematopoiesis and progression to hematopoietic malignancy. Specifically, there is evidence that genotoxic stress from chemotherapy or radiation therapy, ribosome biogenesis stress, and possibly inflammation may increase the risk of transformation from clonal hematopoiesis to a myeloid malignancy. Models that incorporate features of clonal hematopoiesis along with an assessment of hematopoietic stressors may eventually help predict and prevent the development of hematopoietic malignancies.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
