chronic myeloid leukemia
what is the philidelphia chromosome
BcrABL - constitutively active tyrosine kinase oncogene
9 and 22
CML risk factors
atomic bomb
ionizing radiation
is CML familial
no
CML presentation
leukostasis - medical emergency
thick blood
- confusion
- stroke
what is leukostasis
white blood cell count can be in millions
tests we can do to find CML
FISH - fluorescence in situ
PCR - measures pos genes
90% of patients will be in what phase CML
chronic phase
<10% blasts
phases of CML
chronic
accelerated
blast crisis
CML treatment for cure
allogenic hematopoetic stem cell transplant
what is allogenic stem cell transplant
cells from a donor
CML common treatment
tyrosine kinase inhibitors
1st gen: imatinib
2nd gen: nilotinib, dasatinib, bosutinib
3rd gen: ponatinib
T315I: ascitinib, ponatinib
CML treatment monitoring for molecular response done how and with what responses
early BCR-ABL <10% at 3 and 6 month
major: <0.1%
deep: <0.01% - best
imatinib side effect
nausea
dasatinib side effect
fluid retention

vascular occlusion
dasatinib consideration
avoid acid reducers
nilotinib consideration

which drug used for T135I mutation
ponatinib, ascitinib
when can CML patients take a drug holiday
deep molecular response for 2 years (<0.01%)
must be on TKI for 3 years
chronic lymphoid leukemia in who and how common
old white men
more common than CML
CLL risk factors
first degree relative (3 times)
old white men
when do we treat CLL
when we get constiutional symptoms like lymphadenopathy
genetics for CLL linked with worse outcomes
Del 11q
Del 17p
what is Del17p
loss of p53 - worst outcome
