Mutations in <italic>NF1, NRAS, KRAS, PTPN11</italic> and <italic>CBL</italic> occur in 85% of patients, yet there are currently no risk stratification algorithms capable of predicting which patients will be refractory to conventional treatment and therefore be candidates for experimental therapies. In addition, there have been few other molecular pathways identified aside from the Ras/MAPK pathway to serve as the basis for such novel therapeutic strategies. We therefore sought to genomically characterize serial samples from patients at diagnosis through relapse and transformation to acute myeloid leukemia in order to expand our knowledge of the mutational spectrum in JMML. We identified recurrent mutations in genes involved in signal transduction, gene splicing, the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and transcription. Importantly, the number of somatic alterations present at diagnosis appears to be the major determinant of outcome.</p></div></front><back><div1

Mutations in <italic>NF1, NRAS, KRAS, PTPN11</italic> and <italic>CBL</italic> occur in 85% of patients, yet there are currently no risk stratification algorithms capable of predicting which patients will be refractory to conventional treatment and therefore be candidates for experimental therapies. In addition, there have been few other molecular pathways identified aside from the Ras/MAPK pathway to serve as the basis for such novel therapeutic strategies. We therefore sought to genomically characterize serial samples from patients at diagnosis through relapse and transformation to acute myeloid leukemia in order to expand our knowledge of the mutational spectrum in JMML. We identified recurrent mutations in genes involved in signal transduction, gene splicing, the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) and transcription.

The only curative therapy is hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT)<sup><xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref></sup>. However, some patients exhibit highly aggressive disease despite HSCT, while spontaneous remissions are occasionally observed in others with minimal therapy<sup><xref rid="R3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>,<xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref></sup>. The lack of current laboratory, genetic, and clinical features to distinguish these patients<sup><xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>,<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref></sup> presents a clinical dilemma for physicians and parents. We hypothesized that complete genomic characterization of JMML would aid in distinguishing these cases and further identify relevant molecular targets for the development of novel therapies in patients with the most aggressive disease phenotypes.</p><p id="P3">Mutations in <italic>NF1, NRAS, KRAS, PTPN11</italic> and <italic>CBL</italic> (“Ras pathway”) currently allow for a molecular diagnosis in 85% of patients<sup><xref rid="R7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>-<xref rid="R11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref></sup>. Recently, secondary mutations in <italic>SETBP1</italic> and <italic>JAK3</italic> were identified by whole exome sequencing in a small number of patients with JMML at diagnosis<sup><xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref></sup>. We subsequently identified several patients who had an increase in allele frequency of <italic>SETBP1</italic> mutations at relapse. We then harnessed droplet digital (dd) PCR to show that subclonal <italic>SETBP1</italic> mutations were present in nearly a third of patients with JMML at diagnosis and independently predicted relapse<sup><xref rid="R13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref></sup>. These findings indicated a level of genetic complexity previously unrecognized in JMML, and given the limited numbers of patients with non-syndromic, <italic>de novo</italic> JMML who have had exome sequencing performed, we set out to assess the genomic landscape of JMML.</p><p id="P4">We sequenced samples from patients (n=29) with matched tumor/normal pairs. Seven of these patients also had serially acquired relapse and/or transformation to AML samples available for sequencing. We then validated our findings in an independent cohort of 71 patients (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure 1</xref>), of whom nine had paired diagnostic-relapse samples available. Two of the 29 patients that had exome sequencing were suspected of having Noonan syndrome. Upon confirmation, they were removed from all outcome analyses which were specific to somatically mutated JMML.</p></sec><sec sec-type="results" id="S2"><title>RESULTS</title><sec id="S3"><title>Sequencing of JMML samples using optimized algorithms</title><p id="P5">We performed whole exome sequencing (WES) at a mean coverage of 95x (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 1</xref>) on 22 patients with paired germline-diagnosis samples and an additional seven patients with germline-diagnosis-relapse samples (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1</xref>). Due to the frequent contribution of germline mutations in the development of JMML<sup><xref rid="R7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>,<xref rid="R11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref></sup>, we optimized an algorithm to detect tumor in normal content (deTiN) to retrieve mutations that would otherwise have been missed using a traditional tumor-normal bioinformatics approach. Four tissue types of germline material were used to serve as normal controls, including buccal cells, cord blood, Epstein Barr virus (EBV) immortalized lymphoblasts, and fibroblasts. However, by comparing several intra-patient germline sources that contained varying degrees of tumor content, it became evident that each tissue type had different amounts of tumor contamination in the normal. For example, in patient UPN2026, we first detected a heterozygous mutation in <italic>RRAS2</italic> from a buccal swab but repeat sequencing of EBV immortalized B cells was wild type (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure 2</xref>). We therefore implemented deTiN, to both assess and correct for the purity of each germline source.</p><p id="P6">In total, we identified 10 genes that were mutated outside of the previously documented five Ras pathway lesions (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 2</xref>). These mutations occurred in known oncogenes and tumor suppressors that broadly fell into categories of genes affecting the Ras pathway, signal transduction, transcription factors, epigenetic regulation, and the spliceosome complex (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1</xref> and <xref ref-type="table" rid="T1">Table 1</xref>).</p><p id="P7">We next carried out targeted deep sequencing (mean coverage 1380X) on 71 diagnostic tumors as well as nine patients who had diagnostic/relapse pairs for the 15 genes identified from exome sequencing in order to determine the frequency of these mutations. In addition, we sequenced <italic>JAK3</italic> as prior reports had identified recurrent subclonal mutations in some patients. We also included eleven patients from the discovery cohort in the resequencing cohort for validation purposes. All pathogenic mutations identified from exome sequencing were identified by targeted resequencing. Recurrent mutations were detected in 14 of the 15 genes, excluding <italic>RRAS2</italic> which was only identified in the discovery cohort (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 3</xref>). The incidence of mutations in these genes is presented for a total of 100 patients, of whom 29 were in the discovery cohort and 71 in the validation cohort (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure 3</xref>). RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data was available in 14 patients (15 samples), and confirmed that each of the pathogenic variants detected on exome and deep sequencing were transcribed and detected in the RNA (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 4</xref>).</p></sec><sec id="S4"><title>Somatic copy number alterations</title><p id="P8">The most common karyotypic abnormality identified in WES was deletion of one copy of chromosome 7, which occurred in 5 of the exome cases (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure 4</xref>). One patient with a t(11;17) detected on diagnostic cytogenetics had additional evidence of disruption of the <italic>NF1</italic> locus on fluorescent in-situ hybridization (data not shown), and was found to have a germline mutation in WES. The <italic>NF1</italic> c.2041C>T allele had a fractional abundance of 33% in RNA transcriptome sequencing (15/45 reads). However, RNA-seq failed to identify a fusion RNA in this patient, suggesting that the translocation breakpoints might be intergenic. RNA-seq in 14 additional patients did not reveal any structural rearrangements resulting in chimeric transcripts. Consistent with previous reports<sup><xref rid="R14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>,<xref rid="R15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref></sup> the only additional recurrent structural variants were copy neutral isodisomy at 11q23.3 and 17q11.2 where <italic>CBL</italic> and <italic>NF1</italic> are located, respectively (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure 5</xref>).</p></sec><sec id="S5"><title>Expanding the spectrum of Ras pathway mutations</title><p id="P9">In addition to canonical <italic>NF1</italic>, <italic>KRAS</italic>, <italic>NRAS</italic>, <italic>PTPN11</italic> and <italic>CBL</italic> alterations, we identified a previously described <italic>RRAS</italic> mutation in one patient<sup><xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref></sup>, as well as an <italic>RRAS2</italic> alteration in another patient, neither of which harbored other driver mutations at diagnosis. Mutations in <italic>RRAS2</italic>, a member of the Ras GTPase superfamily encoding the TC21 oncoprotein, have previously been limited to solid malignancies including ovarian, endometrial and squamous cell carcinomas<sup><xref rid="R17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref></sup> and regulate TGFβ signaling through the loss of <italic>NF1</italic><sup><xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref></sup>. The <italic>RRAS2</italic> point mutation in our patient results in the p.Q72L amino acid substitution that was previously shown to confer transformative properties as evidenced by increased colony formation in vitro and increased tumorgenicity after inoculation in mice compared to wild type <italic>RRAS2</italic><sup><xref rid="R19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref></sup>.</p><p id="P10">While Ras pathway lesions have traditionally been thought to represent largely mutually exclusive events<sup><xref rid="R20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref></sup>, co-existing mutations in <italic>NRAS</italic>, <italic>KRAS</italic>, <italic>PTPN11</italic>, <italic>CBL</italic>, and <italic>NF1</italic> were found in 11/100 (11.0%) of patients (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F2">Figure 2</xref>). Analysis of single colonies for two patients with compound Ras pathway mutations indicate that both mutations occurred in the same colony (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 5</xref>). <italic>PTPN11</italic> and <italic>NF1</italic> lesions were the most frequent of these cooperative events. In addition, one patient harbored two <italic>NRAS</italic> lesions (p.G13D and p.Q61K).</p></sec><sec id="S6"><title><italic>NF1</italic> mutations in patients without clinical NF1</title><p id="P11">Two patients in our discovery cohort who were not suspected of having neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) nevertheless harbored germline <italic>NF1</italic> mutations. One of these patients was heterozygous for the mutation in both the tumor and matched normal (buccal cells) with no loss of heterozygosity noted in the tumor. Another patient had an <italic>NF1</italic> mutation with an allelic fraction of 10.1% in the germline tissue (buccal cells). The allelic fraction in the tumor increased to 45.3% after a copy neutral duplication at 17q. While a low allelic event in the germline tissue could be explained as a somatic only variant with contamination of tumor into normal, application of the deTIN algorithm estimated that no such contamination (95% CI=0-3.35%) occurred, based on the absence of copy number alteration in the normal tissue. This raises the possibility of somatic mosaicism, which occurs in clinical NF1 and often presents with subtle clinical features<sup><xref rid="R21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref></sup>. In our validation cohort, an additional six patients harbored <italic>NF1</italic> mutations but only three were suspected of having clinical NF1. It is not possible to determine the somatic versus germline origin of these lesions, as germline tissue was not available on these patients. These observations are consistent with a previous study indicating that JMML can be the first manifestation of NF1 in some affected infants and young children<sup><xref rid="R22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref></sup>.</p></sec><sec id="S7"><title>Activated JAK/STAT corresponded with poor clinical outcome</title><p id="P12">We previously found that increased STAT5 phosphorylation in a subset of myeloid cells is a general feature of JMML<sup><xref rid="R23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref></sup>.

The alterations included nonsense and missense mutations affecting the pleckstrin homology (PH) and/or the Src homology 2 (SH2) domains. Mutations in <italic>SH2B3</italic> have also been identified in lymphoid malignancies including acute lymphoblastic leukemia as both germline and somatic events<sup><xref rid="R28" ref-type="bibr">28</xref></sup>. Two patients in the discovery cohort possessed compound heterozygous mutations in <italic>SH2B3</italic> in addition to a known JMML driver mutation. Each patient had a nonsense mutation in both the PH domain as well as the SH2 domain (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Figure 3A</xref>). While one patient harbored these mutations at diagnosis, the other only had detectable <italic>SH2B3</italic> mutations upon transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The latter patient relapsed with AML three years after his initial diagnosis. Protein lysates collected from unsorted primary mononuclear cells from these patients showed a decrease in LNK by immunoblot, commensurate with the allelic fraction of the patients nonsense mutations, respectively (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Figure 3B</xref>). One additional patient without any other identifiable mutations was found via exome sequencing to harbor a germline <italic>SH2B3</italic> p.E400K alteration, which is a non-synonymous SNP that has been previously associated with idiopathic erythrocytosis<sup><xref rid="R29" ref-type="bibr">29</xref></sup>.

Combining both cohorts (98), patients with 0-1 somatic alterations at diagnosis had improved outcomes compared with patients who had 2 or more alterations (EFS HR 2.09, p=0.009, OS HR 2.02 p=0.018). The 10-year EFS and OS rates according to number of somatic events at diagnosis were as follows (± SE): 0-1 alterations, 60.6% ±6.2% and 65.1% ±6.0% and 2 or more alterations, 22.7% ± 7.4% and 29.0% ± 8.3% (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">Figures 4A and 4B</xref>; p=0.003 and p=0.002).

Of note, EFS for patients with double Ras pathway mutations (14%, n=7) in our cohort was significantly inferior compared to patients with a single Ras pathway mutation (62%, n=55)(p=0.017).

In univariate Cox analyses (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Table 10</xref>), characteristics that reached significance for EFS and OS were: age ≥24 months (HR 2.09 CI 1.20-3.62, p=0.009 and HR 2.03, CI 1.13-3.66, p=0.018) and monosomy 7 (HR 1.24, CI 1.01-1.52, p=0.040 and HR 1.29, CI 1.04-1.60, p=0.019).

By studying patients with progressive disease and by optimizing the use of germline controls, the mutational spectrum in JMML is now expanded to include some molecules with “off the shelf” therapeutic implications while others will require further investigation. In addition to identifying another member in the Ras family of oncogenes mutated in JMML (<italic>RRAS2</italic>), we also uncovered additional genetic pathways contributing to leukemogenesis, including upregulated JAK/STAT signaling, and epigenetic modification through the PRC2 and spliceosome complexes.</p><p id="P26">This report is the first to identify <italic>SH2B3</italic> mutations in JMML. Combined with a previous study that uncovered missense JAK3 alterations<sup><xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref></sup>, these data raise the possibility of using JAK inhibitor therapy in the subset of patients harboring these mutations. This is also the first report of <italic>ZRSR2</italic> mutations in this disease.</p><p id="P27">In contrast to chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) where epigenetic mutations are frequent<sup><xref rid="R53" ref-type="bibr">53</xref></sup>, previous reports in JMML have focused on the rarity of these events. However, 14% of patients in our cohort harbored genetic alterations in epigenetic modifying genes. We show that <italic>ASXL1</italic> mutations result in globally hypermethylated profiles. Patients exhibiting aberrant methylation would be predicted to respond to DNA hypomethylating agents and prior case reports support that these agents have clinical utility in JMML<sup><xref rid="R54" ref-type="bibr">54</xref></sup>. Currently, a phase I/II trial using 5-azacytidine in children with JMML is enrolling patients in Europe. Mutations in <italic>DNMT3A</italic> typically cause decreased methyltransferase activity and result in focal areas of CpG hypomethylation<sup><xref rid="R55" ref-type="bibr">55</xref></sup>.</p><p id="P28">Obtaining germline tissue in children was of critical importance in our study because approximately 25% of patients have inherited syndromes that predispose to the development of JMML. In addition, unlike other hematologic malignancies where one can use remission marrow samples for germline tissue, JMML patients rarely respond to traditional chemotherapy prior to transplant<sup><xref rid="R56" ref-type="bibr">56</xref></sup>. By developing innovative algorithms to identify TiN content with retrieval of minor differences in tumor-normal comparisons, we identified several variants that would have otherwise been overlooked using standard approaches. We showed that sources such as buccal swabs, cord blood and EBV immortalized lymphocytes were all suboptimal compared to bone marrow fibroblasts. While buccal samples are frequently “contaminated” with tumor by infiltrating leukemic cells, cord blood and EBV samples revealed biologic insights into this disease.</p><p id="P29">In the majority of cord blood samples, the canonical mutation was retrievable, thus revealing the <italic>in utero</italic> nature of leukemic initiation<sup><xref rid="R57" ref-type="bibr">57</xref>,<xref rid="R58" ref-type="bibr">58</xref></sup>. Of note, the mean age at diagnosis of the five patients who had cord blood available was 6.6 months. Interestingly, no secondary mutations were identified at diagnosis in any of these children, which may explain why younger age at diagnosis has traditionally been a more favorable clinical risk factor for outcome. B cells immortalized with EBV also provide insights into the range of hematopoietic lineages affected by JMML mutations, with many patients appearing to have clonal involvement of their mutations in the B cell compartment, while others only had myeloid cell involvement. There were insufficient patients available to determine how frequently this occurs.</p><p id="P30">Several mutated genes novel to JMML were identified in relapsed samples, including <italic>RUNX1</italic> and <italic>JAK3</italic>. However, in contrast to most malignancies where a branching model of disease evolution with mutation acquisition and dropout is common<sup><xref rid="R59" ref-type="bibr">59</xref></sup>, JMML appears to have a unique model of progression. Specifically, mutations identified at diagnosis invariably persisted at relapse in all 16 patients analyzed over time. In addition, the cancer cell fraction for mutations identified at diagnosis on exome sequencing approached 100%, implying that all mutations occurred within a single dominant clone. Single colony analysis in three patients with available cryopreserved cells was consistent with a linear model of the acquisition of additional genetic features (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="SD1">Supplementary Figure 9 and Supplementary Tables 5 and 7</xref>). When developing new therapeutic strategies for these patients, it will be critical to understand how secondary mutations alter the behavior of these cells in contrast to cells harboring only the primary lesion. Indeed, combinatorial therapies with agents that target the Ras pathway as well as the secondary genetic event may be necessary, as our work demonstrates that the clone harboring the secondary event frequently expands at disease progression. For example, combining a MEK inhibitor with DNA hypomethylating agents could prove more efficacious in the correct genetic context than monotherapy with a MEK inhibitor alone<sup><xref rid="R60" ref-type="bibr">60</xref>,<xref rid="R61" ref-type="bibr">61</xref></sup>.</p><p id="P31">Previous reports have reached different conclusions regarding the prognostic significance of canonical Ras pathway mutations in JMML<sup><xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>,<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref></sup>.

Consistent with our hypothesis, we found that the number of mutations at diagnosis, rather than the type of mutations, possesses prognostic relevance.</p><p id="P32">In conclusion, we demonstrate that patients with JMML who harbor two or more somatic alterations at diagnosis had a significantly worse EFS and OS compared to those with one or fewer events. Prior reports which identified older age, male gender, and lower platelet count as markers of poor outcome were likely descriptors of patients with two or more underlying somatic alterations. Importantly, in addition to identifying patients with aggressive disease, our expanded mutational spectrum will serve as a platform for studying the interactions of these secondary events in the context of hyperactive Ras/MAPK signaling. These studies will allow further interrogation of multiple molecular targets that can be exploited in patients predicted to have poor outcomes using conventional HSCT. </p></sec><sec sec-type="methods" id="S17" specific-use="web-only"><title>Online Methods</title><sec sec-type="subjects" id="S18"><title>Patients</title><p id="P33">Twenty-nine patients diagnosed with JMML were included in the discovery cohort and had germline-tumor pairs evaluated by whole exome sequencing.

To construct this model, deTiN first calculates the probability that a given candidate mutation is a somatic or germline event over a range of potential TiN levels. Then we iterate over TiN levels, each time constraining the fit using mutations.

Cox proportional hazards models<sup><xref rid="R62" ref-type="bibr">62</xref></sup> were used to estimate the hazard ratio (HR) for defined groups of patients in univariate and multivariate analyses of OS and EFS. Relapse incidence (RI) was defined as the probability of having a relapse before time <italic>t;</italic> death without experiencing a relapse was considered a competing event. Cumulative incidence was compared using the Gray's test<sup><xref rid="R63" ref-type="bibr">63</xref></sup>. P values less than 0.05 were considered statistically significant. All statistical analyses were performed using STATA, version (STATA, College Station, TX).</p></sec></sec><sec sec-type="supplementary-material" id="SM"><title>Supplementary Material</title><supplementary-material content-type="local-data" id="SD1"><label>1</label><media xlink:href="NIHMS716600-supplement-1.pdf" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" id="d37e1663" position="anchor"></media></supplementary-material></sec></body><back><ack id="S31"><title>Acknowledgments</title><p>The authors thank the patients and their families for participating in this research, without which this work would not be possible.
