Myelodysplastic syndromes: most common cytogenetics? (3)
Monosomy 7!!!> trisomy 8= trsiomy 21….may have non-down MDS with germline mosaiscism
what is strongest predictor for poor outcome in MDS?
3 or more chromosomal aberrations
secondary MDS can occur with what? 3
chemo
radiation
inherited BMF disorders
familial diseases
give 4 inherited bone marrow failure syndromes that can lead to refracotry cytopenia of childhood
fanconi anemia dyskeratosis congenita Down syndrome schwachman diamond blackfan diamond
3 germline mutations–> risk of MDS?
RUNX1
CEBPA
GATA2
which germlime mutations predispose AML
RUNX1
CEBPA
GATA germline mutation associated with?
immune def (absent/decreased monos or macs)…more likely to get mycobacterial infection, HPV
prevalence of MDS?
1-4 per million
MDS median age?
6.8 years
MDS seen in boys vs. girls?
=
MDS: more advanced disease seen when?
older kids
what is refractory cytopenia of childhood?
peripheral blood blasts <2% or BM blasts <5%
what is refractory anemia with excess blasts?
PB blasts 2-19% adn or BM blasts 5-19%
what is refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation?
peripheral blasts and or BM blasts 20-29%
MDS-related neoplasms?
JMML, CML, BCR-ABL neg CML…and in Down sydrnme: TAM, MDS/AML
which non-heme disorders can cause MDS? (4)
infection, eg parvovrius vitamin b12 def folate def vit E def metabolic disorders like mevalonate kinase def JIA with MAS Persons= mito disorder
heme disordrs associated with MDS?
inherited BMF syndromes
severe AA
RCC
paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria with BM failure
-B-cell ALL pre-phase
-hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis
-autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome(s)
refractory anemia with excess blasts in kids: give one way diff from in adults
counts may be stable for months
RAEB: treat how?
sometimes AML type chemo not needed before going for BMT
what might you seen on histo in MDS?
abrnomal erythroyid maturation, megalbolastic erythroidmaturation, dysplastic megakaryocyte, nuclear bridging in neutrophils
tx MDS how?
- oberve in approp
- eval for inherited DNA repair defect
- immune suppression someties: ATG and cyclosproine
- transfusion as needed
- sometimes give AML therapy
- Allo HCT= only curative therapy,..need to make sure sibling not carrier
problem with AML therapy in MDS?
high treatment related mortality in MDS (40%!)…3 yr OS only 15% for MDS…vs 16% adn 35% in AML
OS if do Allo BMT in MDS with no prior AML therapy?
60-70%
what is associatd iwth better survival with BMT for MDS pts?
> 12% bone marrow blasts
