CML-Wintrobe Flashcards
Site of sternal tenderness in CML
midbody (fifth intercostal space) of the sternum
It is a reliable sign
CMML,counts?
>109 monocytes/L
Platelet abnormalities in CML
Thrombocytopenia
Thrombocytosis(>1M warants Rx for prevention of thrombosis)
What is the correlate of leukocyte count in CML?
Spleen size
% of pts presenting in AP and BP in CML
AP: 10%
BP: 10%
Adverse effects:When to stop imatinib based on counts?
ANC
Platelet
Mutation in bcr/abl that confers resistance to all TK inhibitors
T315I
Major molecular response (MMR)
≥3-log reduction of BCR-ABL mRNA
Most commonly used pretransplant cytoreductive regimen in CML
BU-CY
Busulfan
Cyclophosphamide
time from initial translocation to apperance of symptoms
6 years
In CML,myeloblasts donot exceed _________ of WBC count
3%
Abl kinase domain mutations
ATP phosphate-binding domain (P loop)
the activation loop
the C-terminal part of the protein
imatinib-binding site (e.g., T315I)
Complete hematologic response
Normal CBC and differential
WBC
platelets
No immature cells in peripheral blood
no palpable splenomegaly
Side effects of imatinib
Periorbital edema
pleural/pericardial effusion,ascites
nausea,vomiting
muscle cramps
diarrhoea
bone pain
skin rash
Disease associated with JMML
NF1
BCR-ABL negative myeloproliferative disorders
essential thrombocythemia
PV
PMF
Types of BCR/ABL kinases
p190 p210 p230
Leukocyte count in CML
50*10<span>9</span>/L(20-500)
Age group affected by JMML
Dasatinib drug interactions
It is a CYP3A4 inhibitor
It should not be administered with antacids as its absorption is pH dependant
Methods to detect Ph chromosome
Cytogenetic karyotyping
FISH
RT-PCR
cytogenetic abnormality in JMML
monosomy 7
