    1. Patient 3 (P3)

      Case#: Patient 3 (P3) is a 20-year-old Chinese female.

      DiseaseAssertion: Patients are asserted to have "CTLA4 haploinsufficiency (CTLA-4 h).

      FamilyInfo: The patient's brother died at age 15 from pancytopenia. The patient's mother was diagnosed with large granular lymphocytic leukemia. Patient's mother (Patient 4) also harbors the same CTLA4 variant as the patient. Authors do not indicate if patient's brother had genetic testing.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0001744 (Splenomegaly), HP:0001369 (Arthritis), HP:0020062 (Decreased hemoglobin concentration), HP:0011873 (Abnormal platelet count), HP:0002254 (Intermittent diarrhea), HP:0001876 (Pancytopenia), HP:0020026 (Positive Coombs test)

      CaseHPOFreeText: Patients symptoms onset at 9 years old with chronic eczema, Evans syndrome, and splenomegaly. Initially responded well to corticosteroids and IV Ig, but relapsed after steroid tapering. She developed polyarthritis at age 16, diagnosed as juvenile idiopathic arthritis. She also developed photosensitive rashes. She was hospitalized due to pancytopenia and heavy vaginal bleeding. Anti-kertain antibody (AKA) and antiperinuclear factor were negative. Treatment with subcutaneous abatacept injections (125mg) resolved joint pain and brought hemoglobin and platelet counts to normal range.

      CaseNotHPOs: HP:0003493 (Antinuclear antibody positivity), HP:0034092 (Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody positivity), HP:0002923 (Rheumatoid factor positive),

      CasePreviousTesting: None reported.

      GenotypingMethod: Genotyping was performed via whole exome sequencing.

      PreviouslyPublished: No prior article is known to contain information on the same proband.

      Variant: The patient is heterozygous for the NM_005214.4 CTLA4):c.347T>A (p.Ile116Asn) variant.

      ClinVar: 2430678

      gnomAD: The variant was not found in gnomAD v4.1.1.

      SupplementalData: There is no supplemental data.

    2. Patient 4 (P4)

      Case#: Patient 4 (P4) is a 60-year-old Chinese woman.

      DiseaseAssertion: Patients are asserted to have "CTLA4 haploinsufficiency (CTLA-4 h).

      FamilyInfo: Patient's daughter is Patient 3 and harbors the same CTLA4 variant.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0001954 (Recurrent fever) HP:0011110 (Recurent tonsillitis), HP:0000155 (Oral ulcer), HP:0005558 (Chronic leukemia)

      CaseHPOFreeText: Patient's symptoms onset in childhood with recurrent fever and tonsillitis. She experienced recurrent oral ulcers starting around age 50. She was diagnosed with large granular lymphocytic (LGL) leukemia for which she was treated with long-term corticosteroids for three years. She is currently treated with oral cyclosporine.

      CaseNotHPOs: HP:0000988 (Skin rash)

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: Patient denied history of rash, dry mouth, or dry eyes.

      CasePreviousTesting: None reported.

      GenotypingMethod: Genotyping was performed via whole exome sequencing.

      PreviouslyPublished No prior article is known to contain information on the same proband.

      Variant: The patient is heterozygous for the NM_005214.4 CTLA4):c.347T>A (p.Ile116Asn) variant.

      ClinVar: 2430678

      gnomAD: The variant was not found in gnomAD v4.1.1
