description <h3>Background</h3><p dir="ltr">Autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome (ALPS) is a rare disease characterized by defective FAS signaling, which results in chronic, nonmalignant lymphoproliferation and autoimmunity accompanied by increased numbers of “double-negative” T-cells (DNTs) (T-cell receptor αβ+ CD4−CD8−) and an increased risk of developing malignancies later in life.</p><h3>Case presentation</h3><p dir="ltr">We herein report a case of a newborn boy with a novel germline homozygous variant identified in the FAS gene, exon 9, c.775del, which was considered pathogenic. The consequence of this sequence change was the creation of a premature translational stop signal p.(lle259*), associated with a severe clinical phenotype of ALPS-FAS. The elder brother of the proband was also affected by ALPS and has been found to have the same FAS homozygous variant associated with a severe clinical phenotype of ALPS-FAS, whereas the unaffected parents are heterozygous carriers of this variant. This new variant has not previously been described in population databases (gnomAD and ExAC) or in patients with FAS-related conditions. Treatment with sirolimus effectively improved the patient clinical manifestations with obvious reduction in the percentage of DNTs.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p dir="ltr">We described a new ALPS-FAS clinical phenotype-associated germline FAS homozygous pathogenic variant, exon 9, c.775del, that produces a premature translational stop signal p.(lle259*). Sirolimus significantly reduced DNTs and substantially relieved the patient’s clinical symptoms.</p>
