Nucleoporin 98 (NUP98, chromosome 11p15) fusion oncoproteins also called NUP98 rearrangements (NUP98r) have already been identified in a spectrum of hematologic malignancies for a long time, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myeloid leukemia in blast crisis/accelerated phase, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) especially T-ALL and mixed-phenotype acute leukemia, mostly associated with pediatric leukemias and poor prognosis [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ]. NUP98r generate NUP98 fusion proteins that join the N-terminal domain of NUP98 with various C-terminal partners including HOX genes and non-HOX genes [ 1 ]. In 2022 ELN classification, NUP98r especially including NUP98::NSD1, NUP98::KDM5A and other partners were identified as AML with other rare recurring translocations [ 5 ]. In 2022 WHO classification, three AML types with characteristic rearrangements involving lysine methyltransferase 2A (KMT2A), MECOM and NUP98 were recognized [ 6 ]. It was also important to note that rearrangements involving these three genes, particularly NUP98, may be cryptic on conventional karyotyping. Although a comprehensive report about pediatric NUP98r leukemia patients has just been published recently [ 7 ], there was no overall report about adult NUP98r leukemia patients.
