This page was converted to the new template on 2023-12-07. The original page can be found at HAEM4:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with Myelodysplasia-Related Changes.

(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). 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.

Cancer Category / Type

Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Cancer Sub-Classification / Subtype

Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with Myelodysplasia-Related Changes

Definition / Description of Disease

Acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplastic-related changes (AML-MRC) is an acute leukemia with 20% peripheral blood or bone marrow blasts with morphological features of myelodysplasia, or occurring in patients with a prior history of a MDS or MDS/MPN, or with MDS-related cytogenetic abnormalities, in the absence of prior history of cytotoxic or radiation therapy for an unrelated disease, and of recurrent cytogenetic aberrations or genetic abnormalities (mutated NPM1 or biallelic mutation of CEBPA) as described in HAEM4:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) with Recurrent Genetic Abnormalities. This category has been retained in the 2016 revision to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification system with more refined criteria[1][2].

Synonyms / Terminology

Acute myeloid leukemia with multilineage dysplasia; acute myeloid leukemia with prior myelodysplastic syndrome

Epidemiology / Prevalence

AML-MRC is reported to account for 24-35% of all cases in AML. It occurs mainly in elderly patients and is rare in children[1][2].

Clinical Features

Put your text here and fill in the table (Instruction: Can include references in the 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)


editv4:Clinical Features
The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.

AML-MRC often presents with severe pancytopenia. Cases with 20-29% blasts may present a stable clinical course and slow progression similar to that of MDS than that of AML.

Sites of Involvement

Bone marrow.

Morphologic Features

  • Multilineage dysplasia: present in ≥50% of the cells in at least two haematopoietic cell lines.
  • Dysgranulopoiesis: neutrophils is characteristic of hypogranular cytoplasm, hyposegmented or bizarrely segmented nuclei.
  • Dyserythropoiesis: ring sideroblasts, cytoplasmic vacuoles, periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) positivity.
  • Dysmegakaryopoiesis: micromegakaryocytes, normal- or large-sized megakaryocytes with non-lobated or multiple nuclei.

Immunophenotype

Immunophenotyping results are variable due to the heterogeneity of the underlying genetic changes.

  • Myeloblasts have an expression of CD34, CD117, increased expression in CD14, variable expression in panmyeloid markers (CD13, CD33).
  • Background granulocytic cells may have higher CD33 expression, and under-expression of CD45, CD11b, and CD15.
  • Background monocytes have lower expression of CD14, CD56, and CD45.

Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)

Put your text here and fill in the table

Chromosomal Rearrangement Genes in Fusion (5’ or 3’ Segments) Pathogenic Derivative Prevalence Diagnostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Prognostic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Therapeutic Significance (Yes, No or Unknown) Notes
EXAMPLE t(9;22)(q34;q11.2) EXAMPLE 3'ABL1 / 5'BCR EXAMPLE der(22) EXAMPLE 20% (COSMIC)

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).


editv4:Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)
The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.

Balanced translocations are less common in AML-MRC, and often involve 5q32-33 and 11q23.3.

t(2;11)(p21;q23.3) MiR-125b-1 overexpression[6] der(11) unknown


editv4:Clinical Significance (Diagnosis, Prognosis and Therapeutic Implications).
Please incorporate this section into the relevant tables found in:
  • Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)
  • Individual Region Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH
  • Characteristic Chromosomal Patterns
  • Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)

Diagnosis

  • FCI assessment of granulocytes and monocytes, in addition to blasts, may be valuable in aid distinguishing AML-MRC from AML-NOS[7].
  • Characteristic cytogenetic aberrations mentioned above are sufficient for the diagnosis of AML-MRC in the context of other criteria being met[1][2].
  • Differential diagnosis are MDS with excess blasts, pure erythroid leukemia, acute megakaryoblastic leukemia and AML-NOS[1][2].

Prognosis

  • AML-MRC generally has a poor prognosis with a lower rate of complete remission than in other AML subtypes[1][2].
  • TP53 mutations are associated with a complex karyotype and an even worse prognosis in this entity[8][9][10].
  • ASXL1 mutations are more frequent in AML-MRC, and are associated with a higher proportion of marrow dysgranulopoiesis and inferior 2-year overall survival[8][9].
  • Mutations in spliceosome gene U2AF1 are associated with trilineage morphologic dysplasia, absence of clinical remission, poor overall survival and poor disease-free survival[10].
