<p>The goal of this study was to understand the genetic evolution and tumor phylogeny of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN). BPDCN can present in patients with skin tumors of leukemia cells and no bone marrow or blood involvement, or alternatively, with both skin tumors and blood/bone marrow leukemia cells at the time of diagnosis. Here, we performed longitudinal sampling of tissues from patients with BPDCN, including both skin tumors and bone marrow, and in some cases serially at different time points through the course of diagnosis and treatment. These were studied by whole exome or whole genome DNA sequencing, comparing tumor samples to matched normal samples.<br></p>
