dc.description.abstractChildren with neurofibromatosis have a higher risk of developing juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and acute myeloid leukemia, but rarely develop B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). Through in-vitro modeling, a novel NF1 p.L2467 frameshift (fs) mutation identified in a relapsed/refractory Ph-like B-ALL patient with neurofibromatosis demonstrated cytokine independence and increased RAS signaling, indicative of leukemic transformation. Furthermore, these cells were sensitive to the MEK inhibitors trametinib and mirdametinib. Bi-allelic NF1 loss of function may be a contributing factor to relapse and with sensitivity to MEK inhibitors, suggests a novel precision medicine target in the setting of neurofibromatosis patients with B-ALL.
