    Abstract:
    Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm defined by the presence of t(9;22)(q34;q11.2)/BCR::ABL1. Additional chromosomal abnormalities play an important role in the progression to CML. However, the additional fusion gene was rarely reported such as CBFB::MYH11. In this report, we described two cases of the co-occurrence of BCR::ABL1 and SET::NUP214 in CML-BP for the first time, which is associated with poor outcomes during tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment. Meanwhile, we retrospectively analyzed SET::NUP214 fusion transcript of the two cases at initial diagnosis of the CML chronic phase by quantitative RT-PCR, and detected at a ratio of 1.63% and 1.50%, respectively. SET::NUP214 may promote disease progression during the transformation of CML. This study highlights the importance of extended molecular testing at the initial diagnosis of CML-CP at TKI resistance and/or disease transformation.
