Chronic myelogenous leukemia(CML) Chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL) 2

CML 12/01/09

Definition and clinical characters 

    12/01/09

Chronic myelogenous leukemia(CML) is a hemopoietic stem cell disease Granulocytosis splenomegaly Philadelphia(Ph) chromosome ABL-BCR fusion gene 4

Clinical manifestation 

Symptoms:

The symptoms are vague, nonspecific, and gradual in onset.including: easy fatigability, anorexia, abdominal discomfort and early satiety, weight loss, and excessive sweating.

Clinical manifestation 

Symptoms: Hypermetabolism: night sweat, heat intolerance, weight loss Stupor from the leukostasis(Cerebral vessels, pneumoangiogram) Spontaneous rupture of the spleen

6

Clinical manifestation 

Signs: Pallor Splenomegaly(be present in about 90% patients at diagnosis) Sternal tenderness.

Laboratory  

12/01/09

Blood The total leukocyte count is always elevated(always over 25000/ul) granulocytes at all stages of development are present and normal in appearance the blast is usually about 3% hypersegmented neutrophils are commonly present

8

Laboratory 

Blood



Red blood cells are slightly decreased in the early stage Platelet count is elevated in about 50% patients at diagnosis and normal in most of the rest.

Laboratory      

12/01/09

Bone marrow Markedly hypercellar Granulopoiesis is dominant, G/E rate is raised. The blast is less than 10% Eosinophils and basophils may be increased. Erythropoiesis is usually decreased, and megakaryocytes are normal or increased in number.

10

Myeloblast promyelocyte myelocyte metamyelocyte stab cell segmented leukocyte

12/01/09

11

Laboratory 

neutrophil alkaline phosphatase

The activity of NAP is decreased or negative. The activity will be normal if the therapy is utility, and the activity is also increased when the patient’s condition is in progression or when the patient is combined with infection or in pregnancy.

Laboratory 

Cytogenetics Over 90% patients contain the Ph chromosome, t(9,22)

12/01/09

13

Laboratory 





12/01/09

Uric acid: an increased production of uric acid with hyperuricemia and hyperuricosuria occurs in untreated CML The level of serum lactic dehydrogenase(LDH) is elevated Level of B12-binding capacity is increased 14

Diagnosis  

   

12/01/09

Splenomegaly, hypermetabolism Elevated total leukocyte count, Eosinophils and basophils increase Marrow is hypercellar Ph chromosome Bcr/abl gene NAP(-)

15

Differential diagnosis 

Reactive leukocytosis: usually these leukemoid reactions occur in the setting of an overt inflammatory disease, cancer, or an infection. NAP is strong positive, Ph chromosome (-)

Clinical phase Chronic phase  Accelerated phase  Blastic phase or blast crisis 

12/01/09

17

Clinical phase 

Accelerated phase

Febrile, progressing anemia or bleeding Bone ache Progressing splenomegaly The medicine originally utility is invalid now The Plt is increasing or decreasing for unknown reason The blast is >10% in the blood or marrow The basophils are >20% in the blood Chromosome abnormalities other than Ph chromosome

12/01/09

18

Clinical phase 









12/01/09

Blastic phase or blast crisis The blast is >20%,or lymphoblast and prolymphocyte, monoblast and promonoblast >20% The myeloblast and promyelocyte >30% in the blood The myeloblast and promyelocyte>50% in the marrow The blast infiltration into other organs 19

Treatment 

Chemotherapy

hydroxyurea 1-4g/d, orally, depending on the height of the white cell count, it should be adjusted individually to keep the WBC at about 10000/ul busulfan 4-6mg/d,orally, can be used until the WBC falls to 10000/ul low dose cytosine arabinoside 1530mg/m2 12/01/09

20

Treatment 

interferon interferon-α3000000 to 9000000 units subcutaneously each day,produces a normalization of blood counts in about 3% of patients, about 35% of patients have a dcreased proportion of Ph chromosome

12/01/09

21

Treatment Imatinib mesylate  alloHSCT  Radiotherapy and splenectomy  Leukaphersis 
