<span style="color:#0070C0">(''General Instructions – The focus of these pages is the clinically significant genetic alterations in each disease type. This is based on up-to-date knowledge using various resources such as PubMed and the WHO classification books. The CCGA is meant to be a supplemental resource to the WHO classification books; the CCGA will capture the current genetics/genomics knowledge that evolves more rapidly than books can be updated and published. If the same disease is described in multiple WHO classification books, the genetics-related information for that disease will be consolidated into a single main page that has this template (other pages would only contain a link to this main page). Use [https://www.genenames.org/ <u>HUGO-approved gene names and symbols</u>] (italicized when appropriate), [https://varnomen.hgvs.org/ HGVS-based nomenclature for variants], as well as generic names of drugs and testing platforms or assays if applicable. Please complete tables whenever possible and do not delete them (add N/A if not applicable in the table and delete the examples); to add (or move) a row or column to a table, click within the table and select the > symbol that appears. Please do not delete or alter the section headings. The use of bullet points alongside short blocks of text rather than only large paragraphs is encouraged. Additional instructions below in italicized blue text should not be included in the final page content. Please also see'' </span><u>''[[Author_Instructions]]''</u><span style="color:#0070C0"> ''and [[Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)|<u>FAQs</u>]] as well as contact your [[Leadership|<u>Associate Editor</u>]] or [mailto:CCGA@cancergenomics.org <u>Technical Support</u>].''</span>

==Individual Region Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH==
|<span class="blue-text">EXAMPLE:</span> Fusions result in constitutive activation of the ''ALK'' tyrosine kinase. The most common ''ALK'' fusion is ''EML4''::''ALK'', with breakpoints in intron 19 of ''ALK.'' At the transcript level, a variable (5’) partner gene is fused to 3’ ''ALK'' at exon 20. Rarely, ''ALK'' fusions contain exon 19 due to breakpoints in intron 18.

Epigenomic Alterations

On methylation profiling of a large series of DLGNTs, two methylation classes have been defined - DLGNT methylation class (MC)-1 and DLGNT methylation class (MC)-2. All cases of DLGNT-MC-2 exhibited gain of chr1q, with 1p/19q codeletion more common in DLGNT-MC-1[16].

Genes and Main Pathways Involved

Gene; Genetic Alteration Pathway Pathophysiologic Outcome
BRAF, FGFR1; Activating mutations MAPK signaling Increased cell growth and proliferation
FGFR1, PIK3CA; Activating mutations PI3K–Akt signaling pathway Increased cell growth, proliferation, survival and motility

Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods

-         Fusion detection via targeted NGS (RNA or DNA panels) or FISH

-         Chromosomal alterations can be detected by FISH, SNP array, methylation array or NGS

-         Methylation profiling via CNS tumor classifiers for DLGNT-MCs

Familial Forms

One case of DLGNT in which a germline mutation in RAF1 has been documented[17].
