A cryptic imatinib-sensitive G3BP1-PDGFRB rearrangement in a myeloid neoplasm with eosinophilia

Blood Adv. 2020 Feb 11;4(3):445-448. doi: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2019001182.

Abstract

  1. Targeted RNA sequencing detected a cryptic G3BP1-PDGFRB rearrangement in a myeloid neoplasm with eosinophilia and normal FISH studies.

  2. Consistent with the patient’s response to imatinib, we demonstrate this rearrangement is oncogenic and sensitive to TKI in cell culture.
