==Definition / Description of Disease==
Myelodysplastic neoplasm with biallelic ''TP53'' inactivation (MDS-bi''TP53'') is a myeloid neoplasm which is characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, manifesting clinically and pathologically as cytopenia(s), bone marrow morphologic dysplasia, and propensity to progress to acute myeloid leukemia, and which carries either two ''TP53'' mutations or a single mutation accompanied by either evidence of concurrent ''TP53'' deletion or copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (LOH); in the appropriate setting, a pathogenic ''TP53'' variant with high variant allele fraction (VAF > 49%) can be considered presumptive evidence of biallelic inactivation status.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Khoury|first=Joseph D.|last2=Solary|first2=Eric|last3=Abla|first3=Oussama|last4=Akkari|first4=Yassmine|last5=Alaggio|first5=Rita|last6=Apperley|first6=Jane F.|last7=Bejar|first7=Rafael|last8=Berti|first8=Emilio|last9=Busque|first9=Lambert|date=2022-07|title=The 5th edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Haematolymphoid Tumours: Myeloid and Histiocytic/Dendritic Neoplasms|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35732831|journal=Leukemia|volume=36|issue=7|pages=1703–1719|doi=10.1038/s41375-022-01613-1|issn=1476-5551|pmc=9252913|pmid=35732831}}</ref><ref name=":2" />
 
MDS bi-''TP53'' supersedes other genetically and morphologically defined MDS entities. By definition, in addition to the requirement for evidence of biallelic ''TP53'' inactivation, general criteria for diagnosis of MDS must be met and diagnostic criteria for acute myeloid leukemia must not be met. Acute erythroid leukemia, in which ''TP53'' mutations are common, must be specifically excluded by morphologic and/or immunophenotypic assessment.<ref name=":2" />

==Epidemiology / Prevalence==
Inactivating mutations or losses of ''TP53'', whether monoallelic or biallelic, have been reported to occur in approximately 11% of MDS, with a higher frequency in therapy-related MDS (18%) relative to ''de novo'' MDS (6%).<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal|last=Bernard|first=Elsa|last2=Nannya|first2=Yasuhito|last3=Hasserjian|first3=Robert P.|last4=Devlin|first4=Sean M.|last5=Tuechler|first5=Heinz|last6=Medina-Martinez|first6=Juan S.|last7=Yoshizato|first7=Tetsuichi|last8=Shiozawa|first8=Yusuke|last9=Saiki|first9=Ryunosuke|date=2020-10|title=Implications of TP53 allelic state for genome stability, clinical presentation and outcomes in myelodysplastic syndromes|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32747829|journal=Nature Medicine|volume=26|issue=10|pages=1549–1556|doi=10.1038/s41591-020-1008-z|issn=1546-170X|pmc=8381722|pmid=32747829}}</ref> These genomic aberrations resulting in loss of ''TP53'' are present in a biallelic or multi-hit state in two-thirds of patients with MDS (with a higher reported frequency of 84% in patients with therapy-related disease).<ref name=":0" /> The incidence of MDS-bi''TP53'' has been estimated to be approximately 0.03 persons per 100,000 per year.<ref name=":2">Germing U., Claudi M., Zerbini N., et al.

==Clinical Features==
Signs and symptoms are typically nonspecific and related to cytopenias (unified thresholds for cytopenias in WHO5 diagnostic categories are detailed below, though these must be interpreted in the context of laboratory reference ranges, patient sex, and relevant comorbidities). ''TP53'' mutations show a strong association with thrombocytopenia in MDS.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1">{{Cite journal|last=Haase|first=Detlef|last2=Stevenson|first2=Kristen E.|last3=Neuberg|first3=Donna|last4=Maciejewski|first4=Jaroslaw P.|last5=Nazha|first5=Aziz|last6=Sekeres|first6=Mikkael A.|last7=Ebert|first7=Benjamin L.|last8=Garcia-Manero|first8=Guillermo|last9=Haferlach|first9=Claudia|date=2019-07|title=TP53 mutation status divides myelodysplastic syndromes with complex karyotypes into distinct prognostic subgroups|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30635634|journal=Leukemia|volume=33|issue=7|pages=1747–1758|doi=10.1038/s41375-018-0351-2|issn=1476-5551|pmc=6609480|pmid=30635634}}</ref>

MDS-bi''TP53'' is a high-risk disease, with increased risk of leukemic transformation and decreased overall survival; this elevated risk is independent of IPSS-R risk stratification and persists in the context of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In the absence of comprehensive assessment for copy number losses or copy neutral LOH affecting the ''TP53'' locus, evidence suggests that the presence of a ''TP53'' mutation at high (>40%) VAF, particularly in the context of a complex karyotype, may be associated with a similarly poor prognosis to MDS-bi''TP53''.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":2" /><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Sallman|first=D.

Immunohistochemical evaluation of TP53 protein expression in bone marrow specimens can be used to inform ''TP53'' mutation status. Several studies evaluating TP53 protein expression in bone marrow specimens have consistently demonstrated nuclear overexpression (thought to result from stabilization of TP53 resulting from dominant negative mutations), when present in an increased fraction of cells, to be associated with pathogenic ''TP53'' mutation and to be similarly predictive of poor outcomes.<ref name=":3">{{Cite journal|last=Tashakori|first=Mehrnoosh|last2=Kadia|first2=Tapan|last3=Loghavi|first3=Sanam|last4=Daver|first4=Naval|last5=Kanagal-Shamanna|first5=Rashmi|last6=Pierce|first6=Sherry|last7=Sui|first7=Dawen|last8=Wei|first8=Peng|last9=Khodakarami|first9=Farnoosh|date=2022-07-07|title=TP53 copy number and protein expression inform mutation status across risk categories in acute myeloid leukemia|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35390143|journal=Blood|volume=140|issue=1|pages=58–72|doi=10.1182/blood.2021013983|issn=1528-0020|pmc=9346958|pmid=35390143}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Saft|first=Leonie|last2=Karimi|first2=Mohsen|last3=Ghaderi|first3=Mehran|last4=Matolcsy|first4=András|last5=Mufti|first5=Ghulam J.|last6=Kulasekararaj|first6=Austin|last7=Göhring|first7=Gudrun|last8=Giagounidis|first8=Aristoteles|last9=Selleslag|first9=Dominik|date=2014-06|title=p53 protein expression independently predicts outcome in patients with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes with del(5q)|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24682512|journal=Haematologica|volume=99|issue=6|pages=1041–1049|doi=10.3324/haematol.2013.098103|issn=1592-8721|pmc=4040908|pmid=24682512}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Loghavi|first=Sanam|last2=Al-Ibraheemi|first2=Alyaa|last3=Zuo|first3=Zhuang|last4=Garcia-Manero|first4=Guillermo|last5=Yabe|first5=Mariko|last6=Wang|first6=Sa A.|last7=Kantarjian|first7=Hagop M.|last8=Yin|first8=Cameron C.|last9=Miranda|first9=Roberto N.|date=2015-10|title=TP53 overexpression is an independent adverse prognostic factor in de novo myelodysplastic syndromes with fibrosis|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26123119|journal=British Journal of Haematology|volume=171|issue=1|pages=91–99|doi=10.1111/bjh.13529|issn=1365-2141|pmc=5577911|pmid=26123119}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Ruzinova|first=Marianna B.|last2=Lee|first2=Yi-Shan|last3=Duncavage|first3=Eric J.|last4=Welch|first4=John S.|date=2019-08|title=TP53 immunohistochemistry correlates with TP53 mutation status and clearance in decitabine-treated patients with myeloid malignancies|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30792212|journal=Haematologica|volume=104|issue=8|pages=e345–e348|doi=10.3324/haematol.2018.205302|issn=1592-8721|pmc=6669137|pmid=30792212}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Kubbutat|first=M.

Several studies evaluating TP53 protein expression in bone marrow specimens have consistently demonstrated nuclear overexpression (thought to result from stabilization of TP53 resulting from dominant negative mutations), when present in an increased fraction of cells, to be associated with pathogenic ''TP53'' mutation and to be similarly predictive of poor outcomes.<ref name=":3">{{Cite journal|last=Tashakori|first=Mehrnoosh|last2=Kadia|first2=Tapan|last3=Loghavi|first3=Sanam|last4=Daver|first4=Naval|last5=Kanagal-Shamanna|first5=Rashmi|last6=Pierce|first6=Sherry|last7=Sui|first7=Dawen|last8=Wei|first8=Peng|last9=Khodakarami|first9=Farnoosh|date=2022-07-07|title=TP53 copy number and protein expression inform mutation status across risk categories in acute myeloid leukemia|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35390143|journal=Blood|volume=140|issue=1|pages=58–72|doi=10.1182/blood.2021013983|issn=1528-0020|pmc=9346958|pmid=35390143}}</ref><ref name=":8">{{Cite journal|last=Saft|first=Leonie|last2=Karimi|first2=Mohsen|last3=Ghaderi|first3=Mehran|last4=Matolcsy|first4=András|last5=Mufti|first5=Ghulam J.|last6=Kulasekararaj|first6=Austin|last7=Göhring|first7=Gudrun|last8=Giagounidis|first8=Aristoteles|last9=Selleslag|first9=Dominik|date=2014-06|title=p53 protein expression independently predicts outcome in patients with lower-risk myelodysplastic syndromes with del(5q)|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24682512|journal=Haematologica|volume=99|issue=6|pages=1041–1049|doi=10.3324/haematol.2013.098103|issn=1592-8721|pmc=4040908|pmid=24682512}}</ref><ref name=":9">{{Cite journal|last=Loghavi|first=Sanam|last2=Al-Ibraheemi|first2=Alyaa|last3=Zuo|first3=Zhuang|last4=Garcia-Manero|first4=Guillermo|last5=Yabe|first5=Mariko|last6=Wang|first6=Sa A.|last7=Kantarjian|first7=Hagop M.|last8=Yin|first8=Cameron C.|last9=Miranda|first9=Roberto N.|date=2015-10|title=TP53 overexpression is an independent adverse prognostic factor in de novo myelodysplastic syndromes with fibrosis|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26123119|journal=British Journal of Haematology|volume=171|issue=1|pages=91–99|doi=10.1111/bjh.13529|issn=1365-2141|pmc=5577911|pmid=26123119}}</ref><ref name=":10">{{Cite journal|last=Ruzinova|first=Marianna B.|last2=Lee|first2=Yi-Shan|last3=Duncavage|first3=Eric J.|last4=Welch|first4=John S.|date=2019-08|title=TP53 immunohistochemistry correlates with TP53 mutation status and clearance in decitabine-treated patients with myeloid malignancies|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30792212|journal=Haematologica|volume=104|issue=8|pages=e345–e348|doi=10.3324/haematol.2018.205302|issn=1592-8721|pmc=6669137|pmid=30792212}}</ref><ref name=":11">{{Cite journal|last=Kubbutat|first=M.

This disease is <u>defined/characterized</u> as detailed below:
* Myelodysplastic neoplasm with biallelic ''TP53'' inactivation (MDS-bi''TP53'') is a myeloid neoplasm which is characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, manifesting clinically and pathologically as cytopenia(s), bone marrow morphologic dysplasia, and propensity to progress to acute myeloid leukemia, and which carries either two ''TP53'' mutations or a single mutation accompanied by either evidence of concurrent ''TP53'' deletion or copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity (LOH); in the appropriate setting, a pathogenic ''TP53'' variant with high variant allele fraction (VAF > 49%) can be considered presumptive evidence of biallelic inactivation status.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Khoury|first=Joseph D.|last2=Solary|first2=Eric|last3=Abla|first3=Oussama|last4=Akkari|first4=Yassmine|last5=Alaggio|first5=Rita|last6=Apperley|first6=Jane F.|last7=Bejar|first7=Rafael|last8=Berti|first8=Emilio|last9=Busque|first9=Lambert|date=2022-07|title=The 5th edition of the World Health Organization Classification of Haematolymphoid Tumours: Myeloid and Histiocytic/Dendritic Neoplasms|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35732831|journal=Leukemia|volume=36|issue=7|pages=1703–1719|doi=10.1038/s41375-022-01613-1|issn=1476-5551|pmc=9252913|pmid=35732831}}</ref><ref name=":2" />
* MDS bi-''TP53'' supersedes other genetically and morphologically defined MDS entities. By definition, in addition to the requirement for evidence of biallelic ''TP53'' inactivation, general criteria for diagnosis of MDS must be met and diagnostic criteria for acute myeloid leukemia must not be met. Acute erythroid leukemia, in which ''TP53'' mutations are common, must be specifically excluded by morphologic and/or immunophenotypic assessment.<ref name=":2" />

The <u>clinical features</u> of this disease are detailed below:
* Signs and symptoms are typically nonspecific and related to cytopenias (unified thresholds for cytopenias in WHO5 diagnostic categories are detailed below, though these must be interpreted in the context of laboratory reference ranges, patient sex, and relevant comorbidities). ''TP53'' mutations show a strong association with thrombocytopenia in MDS.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":1" />
*Anemia (hemoglobin < 130 g/L in males, < 120 g/L in females)
**Pallor, fatigue
*Neutropenia (absolute neutrophil count < 1.8x10<sup>9</sup>/L)
**Infection
*Thrombocytopenia (platelet count < 150x10<sup>9</sup>/L)
**Bruising, petechiae, bleeding
* MDS-bi''TP53'' is a high-risk disease, with increased risk of leukemic transformation and decreased overall survival; this elevated risk is independent of IPSS-R risk stratification and persists in the context of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In the absence of comprehensive assessment for copy number losses or copy neutral LOH affecting the ''TP53'' locus, evidence suggests that the presence of a ''TP53'' mutation at high (>40%) VAF, particularly in the context of a complex karyotype, may be associated with a similarly poor prognosis to MDS-bi''TP53''.<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":2" /><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Sallman|first=D.
