Abstract:
:Secretory carcinoma (SC) of the salivary gland is a low-grade malignancy associated with a well-defined clinical, histologic, immunohistochemical, and cytogenetic signature. Although the t(12;15) (p13;q25) translocation resulting in an ETV6-NTRK3 gene fusion is well documented, advances in molecular profiling in salivary gland tumors have led to the discovery of RET as another ETV6 gene fusion partner in SC. Here, we applied an RNA-based next-generation sequencing (NGS) approach for fusion detection on 14 presumed SC. The cases included 7 SC with classic ETV6-NTRK3 gene fusion and 3 SC harboring ETV6-RET gene fusion. In addition, 2 cases revealed a NCOA4-RET gene fusion and were subsequently reclassified as intraductal carcinomas. One case with an unusual dual-pattern morphology revealed a novel translocation involving ETV6, NTRK3, and MAML3 gene rearrangements. Interestingly, no ETV6-NTRK3 or ETV6-RET SC was ever documented to have this unique dual-pattern morphology or harbor a MAML3 mutation. The remaining case had no detected chromosomal abnormalities. Advances in molecular profiling of SC have led to the discovery of novel fusion partners such as RET and now MAML3. Further molecular characterization of salivary gland neoplasms is needed as these mutations may present alternative therapeutic targets in patients with these tumors.
