A large-scale genomic analysis of patients with ASXL1 -mutated myeloid disease has not been performed to date. We reviewed comprehensive genomic profiling results from 6043 adults to characterize clinicopathologic features and co-mutation patterns by ASXL1 mutation status. ASXL1 mutations occurred in 1414 patients (23%). Mutation co-occurrence testing revealed strong co-occurrence ( p < 0.01) between mutations in ASXL1 and nine genes ( SRSF2, U2AF1, RUNX1, SETBP1, EZH2, STAG2, CUX1, CSF3R, CBL ). Further analysis of patients with these co-mutations yielded several novel findings. Co-mutation patterns supported that ASXL1/SF3B1 co-mutation may be biologically distinct from ASXL1 /non- SF3B1 spliceosome co-mutation. In AML, ASXL1/SRSF2 co-mutated patients frequently harbored STAG2 mutations (42%), which were dependent on the presence of both ASXL1 and SRSF2 mutation ( p < 0.05). STAG2 and SETBP1 mutations were also exclusive in ASXL1/SRSF2 co-mutated patients and associated with divergent chronic myeloid phenotypes. Our findings support that certain multi-mutant genotypes may be biologically relevant in ASXL1 -mutated myeloid disease.
