WHO Classification of Disease
Structure | Disease |
---|---|
Book | Haematolymphoid Tumours (5th ed.) |
Category | Myeloid proliferations and neoplasms |
Family | Acute leukaemias of mixed or ambiguous lineage |
Type | Acute leukaemia of ambiguous lineage, immunophenotypically defined |
Subtype(s) | Acute undifferentiated leukaemia |
Definition / Description of Disease
An acute leukemia with blasts that are immunophenotypically ambiguous for any one hematopoietic lineage. AUL is a diagnosis of exclusion that is incompatible with the presence of features that 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).
To support an undifferentiated phenotype, AUL requires an immunophenotypic work up that “excludes unusual lineages such as plasmacytoid dendritic cell precursors, natural killer precursors, basophils, and non-hematologic cells”[1].
Synonyms / Terminology
Blast cell leukemia, stem cell leukemia, stem cell acute leukemia, undifferentiated leukemia.
Epidemiology / Prevalence
Very rare; precise frequency unknown.
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.In one study of 16 cases of adults with AUL, the median age was 63 years (range: 24-84 years) and patients could achieve clinical remission after allogeneic stem cell transplantation[2]. In previous studies that weakly suggest ALL induction regimens over AML induction regimens, there may be selection bias in the patients who were well enough to be transplant candidates[3].
In children, based on limited clinical information in the literature, AUL has been associated with a poor prognosis[4].
Sites of Involvement
Bone marrow and peripheral blood. AUL is so rare, it is unknown if there is a pattern of other sites of involvement.
Morphologic Features
AUL blast morphology is bland and non-specific. Cytoplasmic granulation and disease defining morphology are absent.
Immunophenotype
Put your text here and fill in the table (Instruction: Can include references in the table. Do not delete table.)
Finding | Marker |
---|---|
Positive (universal) | EXAMPLE: CD1 |
Positive (subset) | EXAMPLE: CD2 |
Negative (universal) | EXAMPLE: CD3 |
Negative (subset) | EXAMPLE: CD4 |
editv4:ImmunophenotypeThe content below was from the old template. Please incorporate above.Per WHO 2017, AUL blasts should express no more than one membrane marker for any lineage.
Positive (universal) Precursor stage: HLA-DR, CD34, and/or CD38, CD117, CD133 [5] Positive (subset) TdT CD7 (weak positivity) see below.
Negative (universal) Myeloid: MPO Monocytic: NSE, CD11c, Cd14, CD64, lysozyme, Cd4, CD11b, CD36, NG2 homologue
T cell: cCD3
B cell: cCD22, cCD79a, strong CD19
Megakaryocytic: CD41, CD61, CD42, CD235a
Negative (subset) NA Additional Description: Blasts are generally positive for HLA-DR, CD34, and/or CD38.
-CD7 positivity is associated with T cells, but can also be seen in some CD34+ hematopoietic stem cells and is not unexpected in a stem cell leukemia[1].
-See HAEM4:Acute Leukemias of Ambiguous Lineage for assigning lineage assignment.
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 |
