Abstract Text | Mastocytosis are myeloproliferative neoplasms commonly related to gain-of-function mutations involving the tyrosine kinase domain of KIT. We herein report a case of familial systemic mastocytosis with the rare KIT K509I germ line mutation affecting two family members: mother and daughter. In vitro treatment with imatinib, dasatinib and PKC412 reduced cell viability of primary mast cells harboring KIT K509I mutation. However, imatinib was more effective in inducing apoptosis of neoplastic mast cells. Both patients with familial systemic mastocytosis had remarkable hematological and skin improvement after three months of imatinib treatment, suggesting that it may be an effective front line therapy for patients harboring KIT K509I mutation. |

KIT K509I | systemic mastocytosis | sensitive | Dasatinib | Preclinical - Patient cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, Sprycel (dasatinib) treatment inhibited growth and induced apoptosis of primary bone marrow mononuclear cells derived from patients with aggressive systemic mastocytosis harboring KIT K509I in culture (PMID: 25139846). | 25139846 |
KIT K509I | systemic mastocytosis | sensitive | Imatinib | Case Reports/Case Series | Actionable | In a clinical case study, Gleevec (imatinib) treatment resulted in symptom and enzymatic improvements in 2 patients with aggressive systemic mastocytosis harboring KIT K509I, with 1 patient achieving a major response/complete remission, and inhibited growth of primary bone marrow mononuclear cells derived from both patients in culture (PMID: 25139846). | 25139846 |
KIT K509I | systemic mastocytosis | predicted - sensitive | Midostaurin | Preclinical - Patient cell culture | Actionable | In a preclinical study, Rydapt (midostaurin) treatment inhibited growth but did not induce apoptosis in primary bone marrow mononuclear cells derived from patients with aggressive systemic mastocytosis harboring KIT K509I in culture (PMID: 25139846). | 25139846 |
