Clinical impact of TERT somatic mutation in telomerase-related gene mutation carriers after lung transplantation

Résumé

Almost 25% of patients with pulmonary fibrosis referred for lung transplantation have a germline rare variant of a telomere-related gene. Acquired TERT promoter mutations may counterbalanced the germline defect and reduce the risk of hematological complications in this population. In a series of 34 patients with a germline telomere-related gene mutation who underwent lung transplantation, 12 (35%) patients had at least 1 acquired TERT promoter mutation. Six patients presented myelodysplasia before lung transplantation, with no difference between patients with and without an acquired TERT promoter mutation. After lung transplantation, myelodysplasia developed in only 1 of 8 patients with an acquired TERT promoter mutation versus 7 of 18 patients without a mutation. Survival did not differ between patients with and without an acquired mutation. The presence of an acquired TERT promoter mutation could be associated with reduced hematological complications after transplantation and with better outcome in telomere-related gene mutation carriers but requires further study.
