Q

“clogged pipe”

AML

A
  • hypercellular bone marrow: immature cells otugrow all other cells - crowding out -> cytopenia

Q

management of hyperleukocytosis

A

hydroxyurea: “count control”, it suppresses it until we can acutely treat - use until pt clinally stable and ready to start chemo

dose is whatever works tbh

Q

aggressive inductio chemo treatment pathway for AML

A
  1. cytarabine 7 days+ anthracyline 3 days (daunorubicin or idarubacin)
  2. bone marrow biopsy at day 14
  3. if pt leukemia free at bone biopsy: wait for count recovery and re-biopsy for documentation of complete remission; if NOT, reinduction or salvage therapy
  4. after complete remission: consolidation and consderation for bone marrow transplant

in step 1 can use lipossomal daunorubicin/cytarbine if pt qualifies

Q

treatment for pts who did NOT qualify for aggressive induction chem in AML

A
  • low-intensity chemo
    • azacitidine + venetoclax
    • if pt has IDH1: ivosidenib+venetoclax
    • if pt qualifies: gemtuzumab ozogamicin
  • if pt progresses, switch to supportive care/comfort measures

pts who go down this route do NOT receive curative treatment

Q

AML consolidation treatment

A
  • pts with favorable outcomes:high dose cytarabine (HiDAC)
    - give with growth factor (do NOT give growth facotrs to plts with active AML)
  • pt who have intermediate/high risk: can get stem cell trasplant

25
AML inductio chemo: 7+3
- day 1-7: chemo admin (ADR: N/V, GI, fatigue) - day 8-24: cell count nadir, plt transfusion, recovery (ADR: fatigue, fever, infection, high RBC) - day 25+: complete cell count recovery - dcc from hospital once ANC > 500 and pt no longer transfusion dependent
26
AML additive agents to induction 7+3
- **FLT3-ITD: quizartinib** o days 8-21 of induciton and 6-19 of consolidation - **FLT3-TKD (and technically ITD): midostaurin** BID with food on days 8-21 of induction and consolidation - **favorable/intermediate cytogenetics: gemtuzumab ozogamicin** on days 1, 4, 7 of induction and day 1 of consoldiaiton
27
quizartinib ADR
cardiac (QT prolongation)
28
midostaurin ADR
smell so bad pts throw up
29
when to use liposomal daunorubicin/cytarabine instead of 7+3 in aggressive AML induction therapy
in pts with t-AML or AML with myelodysplatic related changes (AML-MRC) | better outcomes than 7+3 in secondary AML
30
mutation of interest in CML
9;22 translocation (philadelphia chromosome) ## Footnote test for prior to treatment, if pt doesn't have, it's likely not CML
31
CML presentation
- mostly asymp - splenomegaly - WBC > 25 x 10^9
32
chronic phase CML
- <10% blasts - treatment: TKI - treatment goal: delayed progression, eradicate Ph chromosome
33
accelerated phase CML
- blasts 10-19% - treatment: TKI (at probs a higher dose than chronic phase) - treatment goal: control WBC, go back to chronic phase and avoid progression
34
blast phase CML
- blasts > 20% - treatment: treat like AML and slap on a TKI - treatment goal: suvivie iduciton, bridge to allogenic stem cell transplant
35
TKI class ADR
- myelosuppresision - transaminitis - electrolyte changes
36
TKI agents by generation
- 1st gen: imatinib - 2nd gen: dasatinib, nilotiib - 3rd: bosatinib, polatinib - other; asciminib (binds ot Myristoyl pocket instead of ATP pocket)
37
which TKIs need to be dose adjusted in hepatic impairment
- imitinib - nilotinib - bosutinib - ponatinib
38
whcih TKIs need to be dose adjusted in renal impairment
imitanib
39
T315I mutation
- the "gatekeeping mutation" - mutation that prevents most TKIs from working - treat the CML with ascimiib (preferred) or ponatinib
40
CML treatment monitoring
molecular response: look at transcript level of fusion protein (which leads ot proliferation) -> quantifiy amount of that protein in your blood
41
CML treatment: BCR-ABL goal
- @ 3 months: BCR-ABL < 10% - @ 6 months: < 1% - @ 12 months: < 0.1% ## Footnote if not meeting goal, look into reaosns why
42
picking a TKI
low/intermediate risk: dasatinib preferred dt tolerability - can also just do - bosutinib - nilotinib - imatinib (not preferred in intermedate)
43
CML remssion treatmetn
can actually dc a TKI if pt is completely in remssion and meets other strict requirements
44
