Note	Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) are clonal and chronic hematological malignancies caused by genetic defects that result in overproduction of one or several myeloid lineages (erythroïd, megakaryocytic and granulocytic lineages). The classic MPN or Ph-chromosome-negative MPN include polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF). Familial MPN are estimated to 2 to 10% according to studies. They are divided in two overlapping entities: - True MPN disorders with germline predisposition that are familial clustering of MPN with autosomal dominant inheritance and incomplete penetrance. These familial cases are indistinguishable from the sporadic cases of MPN in terms of clinical features and acquired genetic abnormalities. - Hereditary MPN-like disorders with clinical symptoms of MPN but affecting a single lineage involvement. They include hereditary thrombocytosis ( THPO, MPL, JAK2 genes), hereditary erythrocytosis ( EPOR, VHL, EGLN1 and EPAS1 genes) and hereditary neutrophilia ( gene). These hereditary disorders are non-malignant diseases and have distinct features: polyclonal hematopoiesis, absence of disease progression and autosomal dominant inheritance with complete penetrance.
Inheritance	Most of familial MPN are compatible with an autosomal dominant with incomplete penetrance. However, an autosomal recessive pattern has been suggested by some authors and could not be excluded.

Clinics

Phenotype and clinics	Familial MPN include the three classic MPN or Ph-chromosome-negative MPN: PV, ET, and PMF. Patients with familial MPN have the same clinical presentation at diagnosis as patients with sporadic MPN. They develop the same type of complications (thrombosis and hemorrhage) and disease evolution (post-PV myelofibrosis, post-ET myelofibrosis, and acute myeloid leukemia). The distribution of MPN phenotypes within MPN families is homogeneous in half of cases (all affected family cases have the same MPN).
Neoplastic risk	RISK increased of transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
Treatment	The recommendations are those used for sporadic MPNS. In low-risk patients, phlebotomy in PV patients and low-dose aspirin in ET patients are recommended. In the presence of risk factors for thrombosis, hydroxyurea is used as first-line treatment and busulfan or interferon-α as second-line. Novel therapies based on JAK2 inhibitors have been developed and up to date, are restricted to patients with myelofibrosis.
Evolution	The main cause of death is the evolution to myelofibrosis and AML. In familial cases, the incidence annual rate of AML has been estimated to 1.25% patients/year for PV and 0.68% patients/year for ET.
Prognosis	Familial PV: 83% of overall survival at 10 years; Familial ET: 84% to 100% of overall survival at 10 years; Familial PMF: 30% of overall survival at 10 years.

Cytogenetics

Cytogenetics of cancer

Chromosomal aberrations observed in familial MPN are similar to those reported in sporadic cases. About two-third of MPN harbor at least one chromosomal aberration. Some of them are more specifically acquired with disease progression to secondary myelofibrosis such as uniparental disomy (UPD) of 9p, gain of 1q whereas others are more frequently associated with post-MPN acute myeloid leukemia such as gain of 1q, deletions of 7q, 5q, 6p, 7p, 3q and UPD of 19q and 22q.

Other findings

Note

MPNs are driven by at least one somatic acquired mutation (V617F in JAK2 or mutations in MPL and CALR for ET and PMF) and mutations in epigenetic regulators such as TET2, IDH1, IDH2 and . Familial MPNs harbor the same acquired somatic profile as sporadic MPN cases. Several predisposing single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) such as the JAK2 haplotype 46/1 (also named GGCC) in JAK2, SNP rs2736100 in TERT, SNP rs2201862 in MECOM and SNP rs9376092 in HBS1L / MYB have been shown to play a role in the development of MPN in the general population by favoring the acquisition of driver mutations. However, except TERT (detailed below, none of them explain the familial clustering of MPN.

To be noted

Germline duplication of ATG2B and GSKIP predispose with a high penetrance (above 80%) to several myeloid malignancies, particularly essential thrombocythemia frequently progressing to AML. RBBP6 germline gain-of-function mutations mostly associated with primary myelofibrosis, observed in 5% of the familial and 0.6% of the sporadic MPN cases. TERT rs2736100_C risk allele is significantly associated with familial MPN, whatever the subtype (PV, ET and PMF
