Abstract
Clonal hematopoiesis has been linked with the development of hematologic malignancy and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; however, the association with autoimmune diseases remains to be defined. The link between autoimmune diseases and myeloid neoplasms (MNs) is complex, often multifactorial, and seems bidirectional. The limited data suggest an increased risk of MNs in rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. Paraneoplastic manifestations of MN include arthritis, vasculitis, and connective tissue disease. Treatment options for autoimmune disease such as cyclophosphamide and azathioprine have been associated with MNs, whereas the data for methotrexate and tumor necrosis factor inhibitors are equivocal.
