Next-generation sequencing studies of clonal evolution in hematologic malignancies
Disease | Methodology | Number of cases | Insights |
---|---|---|---|
AML39 | WGS, followed by targeted deep sequencing | 8 | Relapse after chemotherapy is associated with clonal evolution and acquisition of new mutations |
Secondary AML46 | WGS, followed by targeted deep sequencing | 7 | Secondary AML clones are often evolved progeny of MDS clones |
Multiple Myeloma47 | WES | 1 | Clonal shifts occur along the history of the disease |
Multiple Myeloma118 | WES | 1 | Clonal shifts occur along the history of the disease |
CLL76 | WGS, followed by targeted deep sequencing | 3 | Different patterns of evolution evident through cycles of therapy |
CLL40 | WES | 149 (18 longitudinal samples) | Subclonal drivers can anticipate clonal evolution and impact outcome |
Essential thrombocytosis115 | Single cell WES | 1 | ET is monoclonal in origin |
Follicular Lymphoma119 | WES | 8 | Early and late drivers identified |
