    Abstract:
    CSF3R activating mutation is a genetic hallmark of chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL), and is also present in a subset of atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML), but infrequent in other myeloid neoplasms. However, the occurrence of CSF3R mutations in various myeloid neoplasms is not well studied. Here we evaluate the spectrum of CSF3R mutations and the clinicopathologic features of CSF3R mutated myeloid neoplasms. We retrospectively identified CSF3R mutations in a variety of myeloid neoplasms: two CNL, three atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML), nine acute myeloid leukemia (AML), one chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, and one myeloproliferative neoplasm. The prototypic T618I mutation was found in 50% of cases: CNL (2/2), aCML (2/3) and AML (4/9). We observed a new recurrent CSF3R mutation Q776* in 25% of cases, and a potential-germline mutation in a 20-year-old patient. Co-occurring mutations were often in epigenetic modifier and spliceosome. IDH/RUNX1 and tumor suppressor mutations were frequent in AML but absent in CNL/aCML. All CNL/aCML patients succumbed within 2-years of diagnosis. We demonstrate that CSF3R mutations are not restricted to CNL. CNL and aCML show similar clinicopathologic and molecular features, suggesting that CNL may be best classified as myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm rather than myeloproliferative neoplasm.
