New Treatment Strategy and Future Research Direction for BRAF‐Mutated Cancer
Treatment with BRAF inhibitor plus MEK inhibitor is currently used in BRAF‐mutated various malignancies except colorectal cancer, and treatments with BRAF and/or MEK inhibitors and anti‐EGFR antibody are used in BRAF‐mutated colorectal cancer. Despite recent advances in BRAF‐targeted therapies, their efficacy is still limited.

Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a clonal myeloid neoplasm characterized by sustained monocytosis and mutations in TET2, ASXL1, SRSF2, SETBP1, NRAS, and KRAS. We describe a rare case of CSF3R T618I mutated CMML that has a proliferative phenotype,

Genetic heterogeneity in LEOPARD syndrome: two families with no mutations in PTPN11 [PDF]
LEOPARD syndrome (lentigines, electrocardiographic conduction abnormalities, ocular hypertelorism, pulmonary stenosis, abnormal genitalia, retardation of growth, and sensorineural deafness) is an autosomal dominant condition. The main clinical features include multiple lentigines, cardiovascular defects, and facial anomalies, some of which are shared ...

PTPN11 mutation in a large family with Noonan syndrome and dizygous twinning [PDF]
Noonan syndrome (NS, MIM 163950) is an autosomal dominant condition characterised by facial dysmorphy, congenital cardiac defects and short stature. Recently missense mutations in PTPN11, the gene encoding the nonreceptor protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP-2 on 12q24, were identified in 50% of analysed Noonan cases. A large four-generation Belgian family

Noonan syndrome and related conditions are caused by variants in multiple genes. We analyzed 456 Russian patients using a 23‐gene panel and found disease‐causing variants in non‐PTPN11 genes in 85 cases. NF1, SOS1, BRAF, and SHOC2 explained half of these diagnoses.

Noonan syndrome with multiple lentigines (NSML), formerly known as LEOPARD Syndrome, is a rare autosomal dominant disorder. Approximately 90% of NSML cases are caused by missense mutations in the PTPN11 gene which encodes the protein tyrosine phosphatase

Cytology‐First Diagnostic Workflow for Melanoma of Unknown Primary With Molecular Profiling
Cytology‑first diagnostic workflow for melanoma of unknown primary. Fine‑needle aspiration of an enlarged lymph node enables rapid cytologic evaluation and immunocytochemical confirmation of melanocytic lineage (SOX10). This early cytologic diagnosis facilitates timely surgical excision and comprehensive genomic profiling, supporting integrated ...

Abstract B‐cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (preB‐ALL) is characterized by pathogenic variants currently used in precision oncology. However, the mutational landscape of Mexican children with preB‐ALL has not yet been thoroughly explored and defined in terms of the clinical significance.
