Clinical outcomes according to lesional BRAFV600E status. (A) EFS according to BRAFV600E status. Event was defined as LCH progression, relapse, or death from any cause. (B) Overall survival according to BRAFV600E status. (C) Cumulative incidence of SPMs after LCH diagnosis according to BRAFV600E status, with death as a competing event. Basal cell carcinoma was excluded from analyses of SPMs, given lack of clinical relevance. Colored ribbons indicate 95% confidence intervals. (D) Cumulative incidence of SHMs after LCH diagnosis according to BRAFV600E status, with death as a competing event. Using the etmCIF R function, the curve depicting BRAFV600E-positive patients terminates at 6.57 years, because there are no events (SHMs or death) in this group after this time point. (E) Proportion of patients with ≥1 additional malignancies, irrespective of the occurrence before or after LCH diagnosis, according to LCH lesional BRAFV600E status. (F) Time between diagnosis of LCH and the 35 additional malignancies diagnosed in 30 patients from our cohort. Each virtual horizontal line represents 1 patient. Case 2 is indicated by the pink box; case 8 is indicated by the dark purple box. Patients are grouped by LCH disease extent at diagnosis. (G) Proposed clonal relationship of the LCH and AML in case 2. In separate LCH (time [t] = 0) and AML (t = 1 year) samples, the same SRSF2P95R mutation was identified. The LCH sample was BRAFV600E negative by sequencing and BRAF-VE1 immunohistochemistry; no other MAPK pathway gene alteration was identified. In the AML specimen, additional mutations were detected in ASXL1, IDH2, and JAK2, which were absent in the LCH sample. (H) Proposed clonal relationship of the LCH and DLBCL in case 8. In separate LCH (t = 0) and DLBCL (t = 3.5 years) samples, an identical IGH gene rearrangement was identified by EuroClonality-NGS panels. In addition, BRAFV600E was detected in the LCH sample, but not in the DLBCL sample by BRAF-VE1 immunohistochemistry, allele-specific droplet digital PCR, and NGS. In the DLBCL sample, a BCL2 translocation was observed by fluorescence in situ hybridization, and CARD11S250P (NM_032415: c.T748C), CREBBPR1446L (NM_004380: c.G4337T), MYD88S219C (NM_002468: c.C656G), and TP53R282W (NM_000546: c.C844T) mutations were detected by NGS, which were not present in the LCH sample.
