#

NGS studies for MNs in cases #1 and #2 were performed on samples obtained at the time of initial MN diagnosis, which occurred several years prior to the development of AITL. As a result, the MN samples were uninvolved by AITL based on flow cytometric and morphologic analysis.

The extent of bone marrow involvement by AITL was assessed by review of histomorphology and immunohistochemical staining.

##

The methodology to assess AITL involvement was not specified.

We excluded this patient from clonal relatedness assessment due to ambiguous genetic findings: the bone marrow sample was involved by AITL (extent of involvement was not specified in the original paper); the bone marrow and AITL samples shared only an IDH2 mutation with a 2% VAF in both samples and a RHOA mutation was only reported in the bone marrow but not in the AITL sample.
