Inflammatory Waldenström macroglobulinemia is associated with clonal hematopoiesis: a multicentric cohort

Abstract Inflammatory form of Waldenström macroglobulinemia (iWM) predicts outcomes after immuno-chemotherapy and Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors, but its origin is unknown. Here, we unravel increased clonal hematopoiesis in patients with iWM (61% vs 23% in noninflammatory WM), suggesting a contribution of environmental cells to iWM.
