    Novel NUTM1 Fusions in Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Expanding the Genetic and Clinical Landscape

    Gene fusions involving NUTM1 have been increasingly recognized in hematologic malignancies, though their role in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains poorly understood. We retrospectively analyzed 565 unique AML patients with reported fusion results who underwent comprehensive next-generation sequencing (NGS) between March 2022 and December 2023. Among them, three novel in-frame NUTM1 fusion transcripts, LARP1::NUTM1, ARHGAP15::NUTM1, and GABPB1::NUTM1, were identified in three relapsed or refractory AML cases, all with monocytic differentiation. Ancillary studies included flow cytometry, cytogenetics, FISH, and comprehensive mutational profiling. All three patients eventually relapsed and succumbed to their disease, despite initial responses in one case. Each case also harbored co-occurring mutations associated with adverse prognosis, such as BCOR, ASXL1, and RUNX1. These findings suggest NUTM1 fusions in AML could represent a distinct molecular subset with potentially poor prognosis, warranting further functional and clinical investigation to clarify their biological and therapeutic significance.
