Abstract
Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is generally driven by PML::RARA, but approximately 2% of variant APL patients do not contain this fusion gene and pose challenges in diagnosis and treatment. Here, we reported an aggressive APL patient with variant TNRC18::RARA fusion gene, who was resistant to standard differentiation induction therapy consisting of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxidebut achieved complete remission with venetoclax plus ATRA. Mechanistically, venetoclax possesses synergistic effects in ATRA-induced TNRC18::RARA-positive cell differentiation.
