Adult T cell leukemia–lymphoma (ATL) is a peripheral T cell lymphoid malignancy caused by human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1). The clinical subtypes of ATL are closely associated with its prognosis, which is extremely poor in aggressive subtypes (acute, lymphoma, and unfavorable chronic) compared to indolent subtypes (favorable chronic and smoldering)[1]. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) plays an important role in T cell-mediated elimination of cancer cells. Downregulation of HLA occurs in various cancers and has been linked to poor prognosis [2]. Structural defects in the HLA molecule are usually associated with loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and somatic mutations in HLA genes [3]. However, the detection of LOH and somatic mutations in cancer cells seems to be extremely difficult due to the highly polymorphic nature of HLA genes. Conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based HLA typing mainly focuses on the polymorphic exons encoding the antigen recognition domains. Therefore, the genetic variations in the non-coding regions or in the exons outside of the polymorphic exons have largely remained ignored. In addition, methods for precisely deciphering HLA alleles are limited due to chromosomal phase ambiguity. To overcome a line of difficulties, we successfully developed the super high-resolution singlemolecule sequence-based typing (SS-SBT) method [4], which combines long-range PCR amplification and next-generation sequencing (NGS). This method provides in phase highresolution typing, which includes nucleotide differences in both the coding and non-coding regions of HLA genes [5]. Here, we used the SS-SBT method to investigate the entire region of HLA genes in both ATL and non-ATL cells obtained from the same patients.We evaluated 25 patients diagnosed as ATL between 2012 and 2018. Their characteristics are summarized in Supplementary Tables 1 and 2. Of all the patients, five had chronic-type ATL; the remaining 20 had acute-type ATL. Because cell adhesion molecule 1 (CADM1) is known to be expressed ectopically in ATL cells [6], we separated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)
