24
Q

gleevec failure

A

no heme response at 3 mo, no cytogenetic response at 6month, no partial at 12 month, no complete by 18 months

25
Q

alkylating agent heme malignancies

A

del5q, del7q–> poor prognosis, 5-7yr latencies, also MDS

26
Q

topoII associated maligngnices

A

11q23, 21q22, poor prognosis

27
Q

ALL cells

A

+CD19 +CD200; 1/2 CD10+,

28
Q

p190

A

ALL Ph translocation

29
Q

ALL high risk types

A

t(4;11), t(8;14), t(1;19). Ph-positive(922)

30
Q

gleevec response

A

major response: <35% metaphase in marrow

31
Q

CML resistance

A

if no T315 or P-looop mutation, can consider increasing dose or using another TKI

32
Q

Primary resistance in AML

A

if resistance following 7+3–>HIDAC, you can still proceed to transplant with 10-20% success rate

33
Q

HTLV-1

A

T-cell leukemia causative- endemic in Caribbean, Japan (sexual contact, blood, mat/fet). 2-4% of infected will get leukemia

34
Q

benzene

A

can cause AML or myelodysplasia

35
Q

alkylator-associated MDS/AML cytogenetics

A

-5, -7, +8; develop 4-6 years after exposure, low response rates

36
Q

topoisomerase inhibitor AML

A

no MDS phase, 1-2 year latency, 11q23 abel, or 21q22 translocation.

37
Q

NPM1 mutation without FLT3 mut

A

good risk

38
Q

Preparative regimens for AML for AlloSCT

A

1) CY 60mg/kg x 2 + TBI 10-14Gy/3-6D. or 120mg/kg with oral busulifan 16mg/kg

39
Q

reduced intensity conditioning AlloSCT for >60

A

cannot use if active relapsed disease. otherwise encouraging with less toxicity

40
Q

APL treatment by risk factor

A

WBC give ATRA–>consolidate with ATRA/ArO3 (consider omitting chemo); if WBC>10–> high risk need all three

41
Q

anthracycline-associated AML

A

APL type, t(15;17)

42
Q

topoisomerase associated AML

A

no MDS, 11q23/21q22, short latency (6mo-3yr)

43
Q

myeloperox or nonspecific esterase

A

AML stains. Negative in ALL

A

associated with CML (and some ALL)

46
Q

ALL standard therapy

A

vincristine, prednisone, anthracycline, asparaginase

47
Q

Ph-positive ALL

A

add a TKI.

48
Q

mature B-cell ALL

A

add rituximab

49
Q

ALL CNS prophylaxis

A

necessary. high risk: high WBC count or high LDH. trophy reduces risk to
