IDH2-mutated near ETP-ALL with aggressive leukemia cutis and brisk response to venetoclax and decitabine

© 2023 The Author(s)..

Near early T-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ETP-ALL) is a rare hematologic malignancy, for which second line therapeutic options are limited. T-cell leukemias are also rarely associated with leukemia cutis, which is more often seen in leukemias of myeloid origin. We present the case of an adult male diagnosed with near ETP-ALL, with IDH2 and DNMT3A mutations, suggestive of a myeloid origin, and leukemia cutis. After the patient progressed on hyper-CVAD and nelarabine, we treated him with the BCL-2 inhibitor venetoclax and the hypomethylating agent decitabine. The regimen induced a rapid bone marrow response and resolution of the leukemia cutis.
