ABSTRACT
Frequency, distribution and prognostic meaning of ALK-partner genes other than NPM1 in ALK-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL) are unknown. Forty-nine of 316 ALCL diagnosed in the NHL-BFM study group showed no nuclear ALK expression suggestive of a variant ALK-partner; 41 were analysed by genomic capture high-throughput sequencing or specific RT-PCRs. NPM1ALK was detected in 13 cases. Among the 28 patients with a non-NPM1ALK-fusion partner, ATIC (n = 8; 29%) and TPM3 (n = 9; 32%) were the most common. Five of eight patients with ATICALK-positive ALCL relapsed, none of nine with TPM3ALK. Variant ALK-partners are rare and potentially associated with different prognoses.
