Genotype-phenotype correlations in chronic granulomatous disease: insights from a large national cohort

Abstract

Abstract Neutrophils are the first line of defense against invading pathogens. Neutrophils execute and modulate immune responses by generating reactive oxygen species (ROS). Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immune deficiency disorder of phagocytes, caused by inherited mutations in the genes of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate reduced oxidase enzyme. These mutations lead to failure of ROS generation followed by recurrent bacterial and fungal infections, frequently associated with hyperinflammatory manifestations. We report a multicenter cumulative experience in diagnosing and treating patients with CGD. From 1986 to 2021, 2918 patients experiencing frequent infections were referred for neutrophil evaluation. Among them, 110 patients were diagnosed with CGD: 56 of Jewish ancestry, 48 of Arabic ancestry, and 6 of non-Jewish/non-Arabic ancestry. As opposed to other Western countries, the autosomal recessive (AR) CGD subtypes were predominant in Israel (71/110 patients). Thirty-nine patients had X-linked CGD, in most patients associated with severe infections (clinical severity score ≥3) and poor outcomes, presenting at a significantly earlier age than AR-CGD subtypes. The full spectrum of infections and hyperinflammatory manifestations is described. Six patients had hypomorphic mutations with significantly milder phenotype, clinical severity score ≤2, and better outcomes. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was implemented in 39 of 110 patients (35.5%). Successful engraftment was achieved in 92%, with 82% long-term survival and 71% full clinical recovery. CGD is a complex disorder requiring a multiprofessional team. Early identification of the genetic mutation is essential for prompt diagnosis, suitable management, and prevention.
