1 Acute leukemias and myeloproliferative neoplasms GERGELY SZOMBATH SEMMELWEIS UNIVERSITY OF MEDICINE IIIRD. DEPARTMENT OF INTERNAL MEDICINE

2 Basics of acute leukemia Neoplastic disease Cell of origin is an immature myeloid or lymphoid precursor cell

3 Basics of acute leukemia Demography

4 Symptoms Acute onset of symptoms Bleeding (petechiae, gum, hematuria, hematochesia, melaena) Fever (from blast activity, from neutropenic infection) Fatigue (anaemia) Neurologic symptoms (intracranial bleeding, hyperviscosity) Bone pain

6 AML Cells of origin

7 Flow cytometry

22 Prognosis Prognosis is always valid for certain treatment modalities only!!!!

23 Complications during evaluation and treatment DIC Infection Bleeding and transfusion complications Consequences of anaemia Hyperviscosity

24 Treatment options and the choices to be made Curative or palliative care (need to reach complete remission)? If curative stem cell tansplantation candidate? If palliative cytoreduction or supportation only? Minimal residual disease Response to initial therapy

26 Effect of age on AML survival

27 Effect of CR on AML survival

28 Importance of MRD in AML

29 Treatment and MRD

30 Myeloid neoplasms Former name: chronic myeloproliferative disorders

31 What entities are in this group? Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) Polycythemia rubra vera (PV) Essential thrombocythemia (ET) Primary myelofibrosis (MF)

32 When to think of myeloid neoplasms? Mid- or older aged patient Frequently an incidental laboratory finding (scrrening blood count) Sometimes the first symptom is abdominal discomfort (splenomegaly) In some cases neurologícal symptoms got the attention (stroke, hyperviscosity)

33 How to build up the diagnosis? Prove clonality Typical mutations (BCR/ABL, JAK2, CALR, MPL) Supressed EPO Rule out secondary causes No erythroid proliferation stimuli (normal EPO, normal SpO 2 ) Other Typical bone marrow histology (e.g. accumulation of fibers)

34 Characteristics - CML Philadelphia chromosome or BCR/ABL fusion In chronic phase all stages of WBC maturation are present In accelerated and blast phase elevated amounts of myeloblasts Splenomegaly

35 Characteristics - PV JAK2 mutation present in 95% Splenomegaly Pruritus, erythromelalgia Mostly erythroid proliferation

36 Characteristics - ET JAK2 mutation in the 50% of the cases Mostly thrombocytosis Recurrant thrombotic events

37 Characteristics - MF JAK2 mutation in the 50% of the cases After a proliferative phase cytopenias are dominant Significant hepatosplenomegaly (extramedullary hemopoiesis) Dacryocytes present
