Systemic mastocytosis (SM) with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a rare myeloid tumor with no standard treatment. Two cases of SM patients with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 positive AML treated with sequential avapritinib after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) were reported in Henan Cancer Hospital. Mast cell in bone marrow disappeared, C-KIT mutation and RUNX1-RUNX1T1 fusion gene remained negative. Allo-HSCT sequential avapritinib is an effective treatment for SM patients with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 positive AML.

Lung cancer is the most common malignant disease and the leading cause of cancer death in China. Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for over 80% of all lung cancers, and the probability of NSCLC gene mutations is high, with a wide variety of types. With the development of next-generation sequencing (NGS) detection technology, more and more patients with rare fusion gene mutations are detected. Neuregulin 1 (NRG1) gene is a rare oncogenic driver that can lead to activation of human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (Her3/ErbB3) mediated pathway, resulting in tumor formation. In this article, we reported a case of mixed NSCLC with CRISPLD2-NRG1 fusion detected by RNA-based NGS, who responsed to Afatinib well after 1 month of treatment, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed shrinkage of intracranial lesions. Meanwhile, we also compiled previously reported NSCLC patients with NRG1 rare gene fusion mutation, in order to provide effective references for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

NUT Carcinoma（NC） is a rare malignant tumor of unknown origin, which is highly aggressive. It is characterized by chromosome rearrangement accompanied by NUTM1 gene. The pathological manifestations were sudden and focal squamous in poorly differentiated or undifferentiated carcinoma. NUTM1gene rearrangement can be used to diagnose NC. The prognosis of NUT cancer is poor. Clinically, there is no established treatment plan. treatment options mainly comprise surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. A 74-year-old patient with NC of the nasal cavity and sinuses was reported. Her clinical presentation was right nasal congestion with facial swelling. Sinus CT and MRI showed soft tissue density in the right nasal cavity and maxillary sinus with bone destruction. After admission, the patient underwent nasal endoscopic biopsy, and the postoperative pathological FISH staining showed BRD4/NUT fusion t（15, 19）. The tumor was significantly reduced after two courses of sequential chemoradiotherapy. Two months later, the patient underwent a partial maxillary resection due to the rapid regrowth of sinusoidal mass, invading the hard palate. The patient died 2 months after surgery due to multiple organ failure resulted from tumor metastasis, with a survival time of 11 months. The clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of this case were reported and related literature was reviewed.
摘要: NUT癌（NUT Carcinoma）是一种罕见的起源不明的具有高度侵袭性的恶性肿瘤，其以伴有NUTM1基因染色体重排为主要特点，病理表现为具有突然和局灶性鳞状分化低分化或未分化癌，FISH检测见NUTM1基因重排可明确诊断，NUT癌预后较差，临床上并未明确治疗方案，治疗方式多为手术、放疗及化疗。本文报道1例74岁鼻腔鼻窦NUT癌患者，临床表现为右侧鼻塞伴面部肿胀，鼻窦CT及MRI示右侧鼻腔及上颌窦软组织密度影伴骨质破坏，入院后行鼻窦肿物活检术，术后病理FISH染色结果示BRD4/NUT融合t（15，19），予序贯同步放化疗2个疗程后肿物显著减小，2个月后肿物再次迅速增长侵及硬腭影响进食，行上颌骨部分切除术，术后2个月患者因肿瘤转移累及全身脏器衰竭死亡，生存期11个月，现对本病例的临床特征和诊疗经过进行报告及相关文献复习。.

BACKGROUND: CIC-rearranged sarcomas (CRS) represent a new entity of undifferentiated small round cell sarcoma belonging to the Ewing-like sarcomas family. CRS are the most common type. Fusion partners for the CIC gene include DUX4, FOXO4, and the recently recognizedNUTM1. Rare cases of CIC::NUTM1 sarcoma in pediatric patients have recently been reported in brain, kidney, bone, and soft tissues. However, such cases have not been identified in the soft tissues of the limbs.
METHODS: We reported a case of CIC::NUTM1 sarcoma located in the right upper limb of an 18-year-old man. The tumor displayed morphologic features typical of CIC::DUX4 sarcomas, with small- to medium-sized round cells, a lobular pattern, focal spindling, myxoid stroma, and patchy necrosis. The tumor diffusely expressed NUTM1, was positive for WT1cter at weak to moderate intensity, and was focally positive for CD99, while it was negative for keratins, EMA, P40, MyoD1, myogenin, NKX2.2, BCOR, and pan-TRK. Fluorescence in situ hybridization analyses revealed cleavage of the CIC and NUTM1 genes.
CONCLUSIONS: CIC::NUTM1 sarcomas represent a novel molecular variant of CRS with a preference for the central nervous system and younger pediatric persons. Its morphology and phenotype may be mistaken for NUT carcinomas, and the behavior is more progressive than other forms of CRS. For this rare and newly discovered gene fusion variant, it is necessary to integrate molecular and immunohistochemical findings with morphologic features in the diagnosis of undifferentiated neoplasms.

We report the novel clinical presentation of a primary brain neoplasm in a 30-year-old man with a mass-like area in the anteromedial temporal lobe. Histopathological analysis revealed a low-grade neuroepithelial tumor with cytologically abnormal neurons and atypical glial cells within the cerebral cortex. Molecular analysis showed a previously undescribed FGFR2::DLG5 rearrangement. We discuss the clinical significance and molecular implications of this fusion event, shedding light on its potential impact on tumor development and patient prognosis. Additionally, an extensive review places the finding in this case in the context of protein fusions in brain tumors in general and highlights their diverse manifestations, underlying molecular mechanisms, and therapeutic implications.

BACKGROUND: Ewing\'s sarcoma (ES) is an aggressive cancer of bone and soft tissue, most of which tend to occur in the bone. Extraosseous Ewing\'s sarcoma (EES) of the cervix is extremely rare.
METHODS: In the present work, we reported a 39-year-old cervical EES patient with a 2.5*2.1*1.8 cm tumor mass. According to previous literatures, our case is the smallest tumor found in primary cervical ES ever. The patient initially came to our hospital due to vaginal bleeding, and then the gynecological examination found a neoplasm between the cervical canal and partially in the external cervical orifice. The diagnosis of EES was confirmed below: Hematoxylin & Eosin staining (H&E) revealed small round blue malignant cells in biopsy specimens. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) showed the positive staining for CD99, NKX2.2, and FLI1. Disruption of EWSR1 gene was found by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and the EWSR1-FLI1 gene fusion was determined by next-generation sequencing (NGS). The patient received laparoscopic wide hysterectomy, bilateral adnexectomy, pelvic lymphadenectomy, and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy and remained disease free with regular follow-up for 1 year.
CONCLUSIONS: Through a systematic review of previously reported cervical ES and this case, we highlighted the importance of FISH and NGS for the accuracy of ESS diagnosis, which could assist on the optimal treatment strategy. However, due to the rarity of the disease, there is no standard treatment schemes. Investigation on molecular pathological diagnosis and standardization of treatment regimens for cervical ES are critical to patients\' prognosis.

BACKGROUND: Crizotinib was approved to treat patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (aNSCLC) with ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1) gene fusion in 2016. We conducted a systematic literature review to identify real-world evidence (RWE) studies and estimated the efficacy and safety of crizotinib using meta-analyses (MA) for objective response rate (ORR), real-world progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS).
METHODS: We searched MEDLINE®, Embase, and Cochrane CENTRAL from January 2016 to March 2023 using Ovid® for published single-arm or comparative RWE studies evaluating patients (N ≥ 20) receiving crizotinib monotherapy for aNSCLC with ROS1 gene fusion. Pooled estimates for ORR and grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) were derived using the metafor package in R while pooled estimates for median real-world PFS (rwPFS) and OS were derived using reconstructed individual patient data from published Kaplan-Meier curves. The primary analysis included all studies regardless of crizotinib line of therapy; a subgroup analysis (SA) was conducted using studies evaluating patients receiving first-line crizotinib.
RESULTS: Fourteen studies met the eligibility criteria and were considered feasible for MA. For the primary analysis, the pooled ORR (N = 9 studies) was 70.6 % (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 57.0, 81.3), median rwPFS was 14.5 months (N = 11 studies), and OS was 40.2 months (N = 9 studies). In the SA, the pooled ORR (N = 4 studies) was 81.1 % (95 % CI: 76.1, 85.2) and the median rwPFS (N = 4 studies) and OS (N = 2 studies) were 18.1 and 60 months, respectively. All MAs were associated with significant heterogeneity (I2 > 25 %). Grade 3/4 AEs occurred in 18.7 % of patients (pooled estimate).
CONCLUSIONS: The results from this study are consistent with clinical trial data and, taken collectively, supports crizotinib as a safe and effective treatment across different lines of therapy in patients with ROS1 aNSCLC in the real-world setting.

Osteoblastomas (OBs) are benign neoplasms constituting approximately 1% of primary bone tumors with a predilection for the spine and sacrum. We describe an OB of the proximal phalanx of the left thumb in a 38-year-old female. MRI of left hand demonstrated a 29-mm mildly expansile enhancing lesion involving the entire proximal phalanx of the first digit. Histology displayed a bone-forming tumor consisting of trabeculae of remodeled woven bone framed by plump osteoblasts in a vascularized background. Next-generation sequencing analysis identified a PRSS44::ALK fusion gene.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with e6a2 transcript type is very rare in clinic,which is usually related to disease aggressiveness. Its clinical characteristics and relationship with tyrosine kinase inhibitor efficacy are still unclear. In this paper, the clinical characteristics and related laboratory tests of a patient with e6a2 fusion gene positive CML characterized by multiple osteolytic bone destruction throughout the body and eosinophil infiltration in gastrointestinal tract, lymph nodes and other organs were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literature was reviewed. The patient was Ph chromosome positive with chromosome +8, and the common BCR::ABL1 transcript of CML was negative, but e6a2 transcript was positive detected by RT-PCR. The patient was treated with dasatinib 100 mg/d. Three months later, the patients achieved CHR, CCyR and MR4.0. However, the e6a2 transcript is very rare in clinical practice, and more cases of e6a2 transcript need to be studied to clarify its clinical characteristics and improve the treatment effect of these rare cases.
e6a2转录本类型的慢性髓性白血病（CML）临床上非常罕见，通常与疾病的侵袭有关，其临床特点及与酪氨酸激酶抑制剂疗效间的关系尚不明确。本文通过回顾性分析1例以全身多发溶骨性骨质破坏并胃肠道、淋巴结等多器官嗜酸性粒细胞浸润为特征的e6a2融合基因阳性CML患者的临床特点及相关实验室检查，并进行相关文献复习。该患者Ph染色体阳性，伴+8染色体，CML常见BCR::ABL1转录本均阴性，但通过RT-PCR检测出e6a2转录本阳性表达，予以达沙替尼100 mg/d治疗，3个月后复查达到了完全血液学反应、完全细胞遗传学反应及分子学反应4.0。e6a2转录本在临床上非常罕见，需研究更多e6a2转录本的病例以明确其临床特点，并改善这些罕见病例的治疗效果。.

BACKGROUND: Alveolar soft part sarcoma is a rare tumour of soft tissues, mostly localized in muscles or deep soft tissues of the extremities. In rare occasions, this tumour develops in deep tissues of the abdomen or pelvis.
METHODS: In this case report, we described the case of a 46 year old man who developed a primary splenic alveolar soft part sarcoma. The tumour displayed typical morphological alveolar aspect, as well as immunohistochemical profile notably TFE3 nuclear staining. Detection of ASPSCR1 Exon 7::TFE3 Exon 6 fusion transcript in molecular biology and TFE3 rearrangement in FISH confirmed the diagnosis.
CONCLUSIONS: We described the first case of primary splenic alveolar soft part sarcoma, which questions once again the cell of origin of this rare tumour.
