Giant cell tumors (GCTs) with high mobility group AT-Hook 2 ( HMGA2 )::nuclear receptor corepressor 2 ( NCOR2 ) fusion are rare mesenchymal tumors of controversial nosology, which have been anecdotally reported to respond to CSFR1 inhibitors. Here, we performed a comprehensive study of 6 GCTs with HMGA2::NCOR2 fusion and explored their relationship with other giant cell-rich neoplasms. Tumors occurred in 4 females and 2 males ranging in age from 17 to 32 years old (median 24).

Invasiveness biomarkers may contribute to improving early diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment for patients, a task that could benefit from the development of high-throughput proteomics. To limit potential sources of bias when identifying such biomarkers, we conducted cross-species proteomic analyzes on three different MM sources.
