WHO Classification of Disease
| Structure | Disease |
|---|---|
| Book | Haematolymphoid Tumours (5th ed.) |
| Category | Myeloid proliferations and neoplasms |
| Family | Myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms |
| Type | N/A |
| Subtype(s) | Chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia |
Definition / Description of Disease
Chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) is a myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasm (MDS/MPN) with persistent monocytosis (absolute monocyte count ≥1 x 109/L and ≥10% of leukocytes are monocytes). When myelodysplasia is absent or minimal, clonal evidence(s) of acquired cytogenetic or molecular genetic change(s) in hematopoietic cells, or unexplained monocytosis persisted for ≥3 months supports the diagnosis of CMML.
Before a diagnosis of CMML can be rendered, other well-defined myeloid neoplasms that sometimes present with monocytosis, such as BCR-ABL1-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (especially with p190 fusion) and myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with rearrangement of PDGFRA, PDGFRB, FGFR1 or PCM1-JAK2 must be ruled out. Dysplastic features are usually seen in at least one myeloid lineage. By definition, the blast percentage must be <20%.
CMML can be subdivided into three categories based on the percentage of blasts and promonocytes (considered blast equivalent) in the peripheral blood and bone marrow[1]:
CMML-0: < 2% blasts in the blood and < 5% in the bone marrow; and no Auer rods.
CMML-1: 2-4% blasts in the blood or 5-9% in the bone marrow; and no Auer rods.
CMML-2: 5-19% blasts in the blood, 10-19% in the bone marrow or Auer rods are present.
Synonyms / Terminology
Put your text here (Instructions: Include currently used terms and major historical ones, adding “(historical)” after the latter.)
Epidemiology / Prevalence
Historically CMML was classified as a subtype of MDS. The exact incidence of CMML is difficult to calculate based on the published data. Recent studies reported approximate incidence of 0.4 cases per 100,000 population[2]. The median patient age at diagnosis is 65-75 years, with a slight male dominance (male-to female ratio of 1.5-3:1)[3][4][5].
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) |
editv4:Clinical FeaturesThe content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.The clinical features are variable and significantly related to blood cell counts[3][1]. Some clinical presentations may be different in dysplastic (WBC count < 13 x 109/L) and proliferative (WBC count ≥ 13 x 109/L) subgroups[4]. In patients with increased white blood cell (WBC) count (~50% of all cases), constitutional symptoms (e.g. weight loss, fever, and night sweats) are common. In cases with cytopenia(s), similar to MDS, clinical presentations are usually related to insufficient blood cells (anemia, leukopenia and/or thrombocytopenia, e.g. fatigue, infection, and bleeding tendency)[6]. Hepatosplenomegaly can be present in both subgroups, but are frequently related to leukocytosis. Rare cases with life-threatening hyperleukocytosis have been reported.
Sites of Involvement
Blood and bone marrow (always involved).
The common sites of extramedullary infiltrate include spleen, liver, skin and lymph nodes[3][1][7], involvement of other organs, although less common, have also been reported.
Morphologic Features
Blood:
- Monocytosis ≥ 1 x 109/L and monocytes account for ≥ 10% of the leukocytes.
Monocyte morphology ranges from normal to atypical: unusual nuclear segmentation or chromatin patterns, and abnormal cytoplasmic granulation.
- Blasts and promonocytes together must be <20% of the leukocytes.
- Variable changes in other blood cells are usually present.
- WBC count: increased, normal to slightly decreased, with neutropenia
- Granulocytes frequently left-shifted with occasional immature forms (promyelocytes, myelocytes and metamyelocytes, usually < 10% of the leukocytes)
- Dysplastic features in neutrophils (more frequently related to leukopenia): hyposegmented or abnormally segmented nuclei, abnormal cytoplasmic granulation
- Eosinophilia
- Mild anemia, often normocytic or macrocytic, nucleated red blood cells may be seen
- Thrombocytopenia with atypical, large platelets.
Bone marrow:
- Usually hypercellular (>75% of cases) but rarely can be hypocellular.
- The myeloid to erythroid ratio is generally increased with dysplastic granulocytic hyperplasia.
- Monocytes can be difficult to recognize in the bone marrow, especially when many dysplatic granulocytes are present.
- Cytochemical studies (Alpha-naphthyl butyrate esterase or alpha-naphthyl acetate esterase with fluoride inhibition staining of blood and bone marrow aspirate smears can be useful to facilitate better recognition of the monocytic component.
- Mild dyserythropoiesis (e.g. megaloblastoid changes, abnormal nuclear features and ring sideroblasts) in some cases.
- Dysmegakaryopoiesis are present in many cases.
- Mild to moderate increase in the number of reticulin fibers seen in nearly 30% of cases[8].
- Nodules composed of mature plasmacytoid dendritic cells in the bone marrow biopsy have been reported in 20% of cases[9].
Spleen and lymph node:
- Red pulp infiltrate in spleen.
- Lymph node infiltrate less common
- Involvement by a diffuse infiltration of plasmacytoid dendritic cells can be seen in lymph node and less commonly in spleen
Immunophenotype
The neoplastic monocytic cells frequently show some aberrant immunophenotype. Recognizing monoblasts by immunophenotype can be very challenging.
| Finding | Marker |
|---|---|
| Positive (universal) | CD13, CD33 |
| Positive (variable, can be aberrantly decreased) | CD11c, CD13, CD14, CD15, CD16, CD36, CD64, CD64, CD68, HLA-DR |
| Positive (aberrant, variable) | CD56, CD2. Increased CD34+ blasts suggest disease progression |
| Negative (universal) | CD3, CD5, CD20, CD79a (T-cell and B-cell markers) |
| Negative (subset) | CD14, CD56 |
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.No chromosome rearrangements specifically associated with CMML.
By definition, the presence of BCR-ABL11 or rearrangements involving PDGFRA, PDGFRB or FGFR1 and PCM1-JAK2 defines categories other than CMML.
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)
Presence of one or more mutations, especially concurrent mutations in TET2 and SRSF2 is very helpful for a definitive diagnosis.
Survival times range from 1 month to > 100 months; the median survival time in most series is 20-40 months[10][11][12][13].
15- 30% of cases progress to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), classified as AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (MRC).
Important factors predicting progression and survival time[12]:
- Percentage of blasts in blood and bone marrow is the most important factor determining survival
- Karyotype, ASXL1 mutation[14]
- Leukocytosis
Other predictive factors for disease progression:
- Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level
- Splenomegaly
- Anemia, thrombocytopenia and lymphocytosis (>2.5 x 109/L)
Somatic ASXL1 mutation has also been incorporated in a clinical prognostic scoring system[14].

editv4:Gene Mutations (SNV/INDEL)The content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.Over 90% of CMML patients studied exhibited one or more mutations[1]. Concurrent mutations in TET2 and SRSF2 appear to be highly specific for this entity[16][17]. Mutations in certain pathways correlated with clinical classification (dysplastic vs. proliferative)[18].
Gene Mutation Prevalence[1][16] TET2 50-60% SRSF2 40-50% ASXL1 35-40% RUNX1 15-25%, usually secondary[19] NRAS p.G12 most common 11% CBL 10% JAK2 V617F 10% NOTCH 10% Other Mutations
Type Gene/Region/Other Mutation prevalence not well studied in PTPN11, DNMT3A, IDH2, IDH1, SF3B1,U2AF35, ZRSR2, UTX, EZH2, KRAS, CBL, CSF3R, SETBP1
Uncommon Mutations in NPM1, CEBPA, FLT3-ITD, TP53 The clonal evolution and secondary subclonal hierarchy may be correlated with clinical phenotypes or outcomes[18].
Epigenomic Alterations
The genome-wide methylation profiles showed limited applicability in a diagnostic setting[20][21].
The methylation level of individual selected gene promoters have been correlated with overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS)[21]:
- CDH1, ETS1, DAXX, FADD, DAPP1, AATK, CYFIP, TP53, BP2, and AIM2, which were hypermethylated in CMML samples.
- BCL2 hypomethylation is predictive of poorer OS and PFS.
Genes and Main Pathways Involved

| Gene; Genetic Alteration | Pathway | Pathophysiologic Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| EXAMPLE: BRAF and MAP2K1; Activating mutations | EXAMPLE: MAPK signaling | EXAMPLE: Increased cell growth and proliferation |
| EXAMPLE: CDKN2A; Inactivating mutations | EXAMPLE: Cell cycle regulation | EXAMPLE: Unregulated cell division |
| EXAMPLE: KMT2C and ARID1A; Inactivating mutations | EXAMPLE: Histone modification, chromatin remodeling | EXAMPLE: Abnormal gene expression program |
Genetic Diagnostic Testing Methods
- Blood cell counts and smear review.
- Bone marrow aspirate and core biopsy with flow cytometric immunophenotyping and immunohistochemical stains.
- Molecular genetic studies are essential to provide clonal evidence for a diagnosis of a myeloid neoplasm, and rule out other well defined entities.
- There are no diagnostic molecular/genetic abnormalities specific for CMML.
Familial Forms
Familial form of CMML has not been reported.
A patient with CMML secondary to familial platelet disorder with germline RUNX1 mutation (classified as myeloid neoplasm with germline RUNX1 mutation) was reported after acquired CBL mutation and 11q-acquired uniparental disomy (11q-aUPD)[22].
Additional Information
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with monocytic differentiation frequently have increased circulating mature monocytes (more mature forms than in the bone marrow), the final diagnosis of CML should never be rendered without an evaluation of BM to rule out acute myeloid leukemia. Rarely, CMML can be "marrow-predominant", with monocytes largely confined to the BM without showing absolute monocytosis[23].
