Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - A clinical suspicion of ISM, based on a constellation of clinical complaints, including drowsiness, gastro-intestinal complaints, myalgia and fatigue, or manifestations such as urticaria pigmentosa, osteoporosis or anaphylaxis. - Eligible for a bone marrow biopsy - Legally capacitated adults -The second eligible patient group concerns patient enrolled in the avapritinib study (research register number 201800849, METc 2018.635). These patients with a confirmed diagnosis of ISM willl undergo a bone marrow biopsy as part of the study protocol of the avapritinib study. Therefore, also in this patient population no additional invasive procedures are required, hence the additional burden of the current study remains restricted to the withdrawal of the additional sample.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Lidocaine hypersensitivity.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Differences in gene expression and gene-networks in bone marrow resident mast cells and their progenitors between ISM and non-ISM patients identified by single-cell RNA sequencing. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Differences in gene expression and gene-networks in bone marrow resident mast cells and their progenitors between clinical subtypes of ISM, as identified by single-cell RNA sequencing. Differences in gene expression and gene-networks of other cell types in unpurified bone marrow aspirate that might be the result of the presence of mast cells (or their progenitors) carrying the somatic cKIT mutation. | — |
