Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) with Multilineage Dysplasia (MLD)
Definition / Description of Disease
Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) with multilineage dysplasia (MDS-MLD), called Refractory Cytopenia with Multilineage Dysplasia (RCMD) in the 2008 edition of WHO book, is a frequent subtype of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) characterized by one or more cytopenias and dysplastic changes in two or more of the myeloid lineages (erythroid, granulocytic, and megakaryocytic), <5% of blasts in bone marrow and <1% blasts in peripheral blood, non-Auer rods[1][2]. The presences of 1% blasts in the peripheral blood excludes a diagnosis of MDS-MLD. Cases with multilineage dysplasia and ≥15% ring sideroblasts or ≥5% ring sideroblasts and SF3B1 mutation is classified as MDS with ring sideroblasts and multilineage dysplasia (MDS-RS-MLD). While cases with multilineage dysplasia or ≥5% but <15% ring sideroblasts with unknown SF3B1 mutation status is classified as MDS-MLD[1]. MDS-MLD has a variable clinical course and prognosis, which is associated with karyotype and degree of cytopenia and dysplasia.
Synonyms / Terminology
Refractory cytopenia with multilineage dysplasia, RCMD, MDS-MLD
Epidemiology / Prevalence
Exact prevalence is unknown but MDS-MLD accounts for about 30% of patients with MDS[1].
- Occurs mainly in older patients
- Median age is 65-70 years
- Male predominance
Clinical Features
Patients usually present with evidence of bone marrow failure. Most patients present with unicytopenia or bicytopenia[3]. The recommended thresholds for cytopenia suggested by International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS)[4]:
- Hemoglobin concentration: <10 g/dL
- Absolute neutrophil count: <1.8 x109/L AND
- Platelet count: <100 x109/L
However, some patients present with pancytopenia or milder cytopenia above this threshold levels in the IPSS[5].
Sites of Involvement
Peripheral blood and bone marrow
Morphologic Features
| Categories | Morphologic Features |
|---|---|
| Neutrophil | Nuclear clumping, lack of lobation (pseudo-Pelger-Huet anomaly), cytoplasmic hypogranularity |
| Erythroid precursors | Increased number, cytoplasmic vacuole, nuclear irregularity (nuclear budding, multinucleation, internuclear chromatin bridging) |
| Megakaryocyte | Non-lobated nuclei, binucleation or multinucleation, micromegakaryocytes (most reliable marker for dysplastic megakaryocyte)[6] |
Immunophenotype
Same as the MDS immunophenotype and the CD34+ cells are typical <5. However, definitive morphological and/or cytogenetic findings can help establish the diagnosis. Reporting flow cytometry findings in MDS should be done in an integrated diagnostic report, together with morphological, cytogenetic and/or molecular findings[7][8][9].
Chromosomal Rearrangements (Gene Fusions)
No
Characteristic Chromosomal Aberrations / Patterns
Trisomy 8, monosomy 7, del(7q), del(5q) or t(5q) Del(20q) and complex karyotypes[10].
Genomic Gain/Loss/LOH
- Nonspecific cytogenetic abnormalities have been observed in 50% of MDS-SLD cases.
- Trisomy 8, monosomy 7, del(7q), del(5q) or t(5q) Del(20q) and complex karyotypes[11].
Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)
- More than 50% of MDS-MLD cases share the same gene mutations with MDS with excess blasts.
- Most frequent mutations: STAG2, ASXL1, SRSF2, RUNX1, CBL, TP53 and TET2[12][13][14].
- SF3B1: 1) MDS-MLD: multilineage dysplasia or ≥5% but <15% ring sideroblasts with unknown SF3B1 mutation status 2) MDS-RS-MLD: multilineage dysplasia and ≥15% ring sideroblasts or ≥5% ring sideroblasts and SF3B1 mutation[15].
Other Mutations
No
Epigenomics (Methylation)
TET2 mutations: altered DNA methylation, have been found to be an independent prognostic indicator with a high response rate to hypomethylating agents[16].
Genes and Main Pathways Involved
- STAG2: involved in the separation of sister chromatids during cell division
- ASXL1: involved in chromatin remodeling
- SRSF2: involved in pre-mRNA splicing
- RUNX1: transcription factor for hematopoiesis cells
- CBL: involved in targeting substrates for degradation by the proteasome
- TP53: tumor suppressor and TP53 pathway regulates the pathways of cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and DNA repair
- TET2: involved in regulating transcription
- SF3B1: involved in pre-mRNA splicing
Diagnostic Testing Methods
- Quantification of dysplasia: Microscopy
- Pathology: Immunophenotyping by flow cytometry
- Genetics: Conventional karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization analysis (FISH), microarray and sequencing
Clinical Significance (Diagnosis, Prognosis and Therapeutic Implications)
- Diagnosis: One or more cytopenias and dysplastic changes in two or more of the myeloid lineages. The blast percentage is <1% in the peripheral blood and <5% in the bone marrow.
- Prognosis: International Prognostic Scoring System (IPSS) was adopted and accepted introduced by the Myelodysplastic Syndrome Working Group[17]. The clinical course of the patients with a diagnosis of MDS-MLD varies from case to case, which is related to the karyotype and degree of cytopenia and dysplasia[18]. Median survival of patients with MDS-MLD is approximately 36 months with the rate of progression to acute myeloid leukemia 28% at 5 years[19][1].
- Therapeutic: Supportive care is important for MDS-MLD patients regardless of whether other treatments are planned. However, patients with MDS-MLD are often evaluated for immunosuppressive treatment. The antithymocyte globulin (ATG) treatment is recommended for MDS-MLD patient with symptomatic anemia and/or thrombocytopenia and/or neutropenia with increased susceptibility to infections[20].
