This page was converted to the new template on 2023-12-07. The original page can be found at HAEM4:Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia (AMKL).

(General Instructions – The main focus of these pages is the clinically significant genetic alterations in each disease type. Use HUGO-approved gene names and symbols (italicized when appropriate), HGVS-based nomenclature for variants, as well as generic names of drugs and testing platforms or assays if applicable. Please complete tables whenever possible and do not delete them (add N/A if not applicable in the table and delete the examples); to add (or move) a row or column to a table, click nearby within the table and select the > symbol that appears to be given options. Please do not delete or alter the section headings. The use of bullet points alongside short blocks of text rather than only large paragraphs is encouraged. Additional instructions below in italicized blue text should not be included in the final page content. Please also see Author_Instructions and FAQs as well as contact your Associate Editor or Technical Support)

Cancer Category / Type

Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype

Acute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia

Definition / Description of Disease

Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia is a myeloid disease defined by ≥20% blasts in the peripheral blood or bone marrow, of which ≥50% are of megakaryocyte lineage. In the 2016 revision to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system, acute megakaryoblastic leukemia is a distinct entity within the section of HAEM4:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Not Otherwise Specified[1][2]. This entity does not meet the criteria for inclusion in any of the other AML groups (i.e. AML with Recurrent Genetic Abnormalities, AML with Myelodysplasia-Related Changes, or Therapy-Related Myeloid Neoplasms).

AMKL in an individual with Down syndrome should be classified as a different entity, specifically HAEM5:Myeloid proliferations associated with Down syndrome[2].

AMKL associated with t(1;22)(p13.3;q13.1), or inv(3)(q21.3q26.2)/t(3;3)(q21.3;q26.2) should be classified as a different entity, specifically HAEM4:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with Recurrent Genetic Abnormalities: HAEM5:Acute myeloid leukaemia with RBM15::MRTFA fusion or HAEM5:Acute myeloid leukaemia with MECOM rearrangement[2].

Synonyms / Terminology

French-American-British (FAB) classification M7[2].

Epidemiology / Prevalence

AMKL comprises between 4% and 15% of newly diagnosed pediatric acute myeloid leukemia patients[3].

Clinical Features

Put your text here and fill in the table (Instruction: Can include references in the table. Do not delete table.)

Signs and Symptoms EXAMPLE: Asymptomatic (incidental finding on complete blood counts)

EXAMPLE: B-symptoms (weight loss, fever, night sweats)

EXAMPLE: Fatigue

EXAMPLE: Lymphadenopathy (uncommon)

Laboratory Findings EXAMPLE: Cytopenias

EXAMPLE: Lymphocytosis (low level)

Content Update To WHO 5th Edition Classification Is In Process; Content Below is Based on WHO 4th Edition Classification
  • Common manifestations include cytopenias (often thrombocytopenia)[2].
  • An association between acute megakaryoblastic leukemia and mediastrinal germ cell tumors has been described[4].

Sites of Involvement

Bone marrow.

Morphologic Features

  • Megakaryoblasts are usually medium-sized to large cells with basophilic cytoplasm and a high nuclear-cytoplasmic ratio.
  • Nuclei are round, slightly irregular or indented with finely reticular chromatin and 1 - 3 nucleoli.
  • Bone marrow myelofibrosis is common.

Immunophenotype

Cytochemistry

  • Megakaryoblasts are typically negative for myeloperoxidase (MPO) and stain negatively with Sudan black B.
  • Variable reactivity to periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining from negative to focal or strongly positive.

Immunophenotype including:

  • One or more of the platelet glycoproteins: CD41, CD61, and CD42b
  • Myeloid-associated markers may be positive: CD13, CD33
  • CD34, CD45, and HLA-DR are often negative, especially in children
Finding Marker
Positive (universal) EXAMPLE: CD1
Positive (subset) EXAMPLE: CD2
Negative (universal) EXAMPLE: CD3
Negative (subset) EXAMPLE: CD4

Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)

Put your text here and fill in the table

EXAMPLE: 30% (add reference)

Yes No Yes EXAMPLE:

The t(9;22) is diagnostic of CML in the appropriate morphology and clinical context (add reference). This fusion is responsive to targeted therapy such as Imatinib (Gleevec) (add reference).

Diagnosis

  • The main differential diagnoses of acute megakaryoblastic leukemia include: AML with minimal differentiation, AML-MRC, acute panmeylosis with myelofibrosis, lymphoblastic leukemia, pure erythroid leukemia, blastic transformation of chronic myeloid leukemia, and the blast phase of any other myeloproliferative neoplasm[2].

EXAMPLE: Loss EXAMPLE:

chr7:1- 159,335,973 [hg38]

EXAMPLE:

chr7

Yes Yes No EXAMPLE:

Presence of monosomy 7 (or 7q deletion) is sufficient for a diagnosis of AML with MDS-related changes when there is ≥20% blasts and no prior therapy (add reference).  Monosomy 7/7q deletion is associated with a poor prognosis in AML (add reference).

Characteristic Chromosomal Patterns

Put your text here (EXAMPLE PATTERNS: hyperdiploid; gain of odd number chromosomes including typically chromosome 1, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 17; co-deletion of 1p and 19q; complex karyotypes without characteristic genetic findings; chromothripsis. Do not delete table.)

Chromosomal Pattern Diagnostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Prognostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Therapeutic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Notes
EXAMPLE:

Co-deletion of 1p and 18q

Yes No No EXAMPLE:

See chromosomal rearrangements table as this pattern is due to an unbalanced derivative translocation associated with oligodendroglioma (add reference).
