25 Prognostic Groups AML Blood,

26 Prognosis AML 26

27 Prognosis ALL Cytogenetics: t(9;22) t(4;11) complex cytogenetics (>5 abnormalities) low hypodiploidy Age >60 WBC>100 for T cell, WBC >30 for B cell B cell phenotype MRD>0.01% 27

28 Prognosis ALL Blood

29 Initial Treatment ABC Monitoring for: Leukostasis Tumor lysis syndrome DIC Complications of cytopenias (febrile neutropenia, bleeding etc) 29

30 Leukostasis Generally leukocytes > 50 or 100 x 10 9 /L leukemic cell upregulation of surface adhesion molecules and inflammatory cytokines leading to microinfarction and hemmorhage Pulmonary symptoms, retinal or CNS hemorrhage More common in AML than ALL Treatment: cytoreduction hydroxyurea, definitive chemotherapy, leukopheresis 30

31 Tumor Lysis Syndrome Hyperkalemia, hyperphosphatemia, hypocalcemia, hyperuricemia, renal insufficiency IV fluids Close monitoring of lytes and extended lytes, Cr, LDH and urate Allopurinol xanthine oxidase inhibitor Rasburicase converts uric acid to allantoin 31

32 Tumor Lysis Syndrome Blood,

33 Complications of Cytopenias Transfusion support Hb <80, transfuse 2 units PRBC Plt <10 or <20 if febrile/bleeding, transfuse 1 adult dose plt Coagulopathy cryoprecipitate if fibrinogen < 1.0 Infectious prophylaxis fluconazole +/ bacterial prophylaxis, febrile neutropenia protocol if spikes 33

34 Treatment of AML Induction Chemotherapy 3+7 Daunorubicin 60 mg/m 2 IV x 3 days Cytarabine 100 mg/m 2 IV x 7 days continuous infusion Consolidation Chemotherapy (generally 3 cycles) HiDAC 3000 mg/m 2 IV Days 1,3,5 (age <60 y.o. otherwise consider intermediate dose infusional Ara C) 34

35 Treatment of AML Allogeneic Transplant Intermediate or high risk in CR1 All others in CR2 35

36 Treatment of AML in the Elderly Demethylating agents: Azacitidine Fenaux, P JCO 2010 Intermediate I and high risk MDS patients with a subset of patients with AML with 20 30% blasts (n=113) Azacitidine vs. conventional care Median survival was 24.5 mo in azacitidine group vs. 16 mo with conventional care (P = 0.005) 2 year OS rates were 50% (azacitidine group) and 16% (conventional care) P = Clinical trials 36

37 Treatment of ALL General principles No standard of care, no comparisons between different regimens (Hyper CVAD, CALGB, AL 4) Most contain multiple drugs in combination over 2 3 years and include CNS prophylaxis Consider clinical trial 37

38 Treatment of ALL Multi agent chemotherapy modeled after pediatric regimens and consisting of multiple phases: Induction CNS phase Intensification Continuation Consider allogeneic stem cell transplant 38

39 Treatment of Ph+ ALL Addition of Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI) Thomas et al, 2008 Comparedto historicalcontrolscontrols without TKI 3 yr disease free survival (DFS) and OS rates were significantly higher for imatinib combination treatment vs chemo alone (Hyper CVAD) at the same institution (DFS, 62% vs. 14%; OS, 55% vs.15%; both P < 0.001) 39

40 Summary Acute leukemia: 20% blasts AML and ALL WBC can be high with cytopenias in other cell lines or can present with pancytopenia Diagnosis is made using morphology from BM aspirate but flow cytometry and cytogenetics and molecular studies can help In addition to age, cytogenetics and molecular studies are the most important prognostic factors 40

41 Summary Acute leukemia can be a medical emergency APL requires treatment with ATRA immediately Prompt treatment with supportive care is necessary to prevent complications (leukostasis, coagulopathy, TLS, sepsis etc) 41
