Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a heterogeneous neoplastic hematologic disorder with worse overall survival. Half of CMML have mutations, but case with concomitant mutations of DNA methyltransferase 3A (DNMT3A) and Internal tandem duplications of the juxtamembrane domain of FLT3 (FLT3-ITD) in CMML was not reported before. We reported a 51-year-old man who had CMML with concomitant mutations in DNMT3A and FLT3-ITD.The patient received decitabine and sorafenib combined treatment. In this report, we reviewed DNMT3A mutation and FLT3 mutation, and we reviewed treatment of decitabine and sorafenib. This report is significant. First: This is the first report on CMML with double-mutations of DNMT3A and FLT3-ITD. Second: It shows the importance of targeted drug in combined treatment of CMML.
慢性髓单核细胞白血病(CMML)是一种异质性肿瘤性血液病,总体生存率较差。一半的 CMML 有突变,但以前没有报道过同时伴有 DNA 甲基转移酶 3A(DNMT3A)和 FLT3 跨膜区内部串联重复(FLT3-ITD)突变的 CMML 病例。我们报告了一例 51 岁男性 CMML 患者同时存在 DNMT3A 和 FLT3-ITD 突变。该患者接受地西他滨和索拉非尼联合治疗。在本报告中,我们回顾了 DNMT3A 突变和 FLT3 突变,并回顾了地西他滨和索拉非尼的治疗。本报告具有重要意义。首先:这是首例关于 CMML 同时存在 DNMT3A 和 FLT3-ITD 双重突变的报告。其次:它表明了靶向药物在 CMML 联合治疗中的重要性。
