Abstract
Heterozygous germline variants in human IKZF1 encoding for IKAROS define an inborn error of immunity with immunodeficiency, immune dysregulation and risk of malignancy with a broad phenotypic spectrum. Growing evidence of underlying pathophysiological genotype-phenotype correlations helps to improve our understanding of IKAROS-associated diseases. We describe 6 patients from 4 kindreds with two novel IKZF1 variants leading to haploinsufficiency from 3 centers in Germany. We also provide an overview of first symptoms to a final diagnosis including data from the literature.
