Detection and monitoring of minimal residual disease in acute megakaryoblastic leukemia in children

Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) is a rare subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which is associated with poor prognosis for all patients except children with t(1;22) or Down syndrome. The frequency of complete remission in case of AMKL is comparable to the frequency of complete remission i...

The CD117 antigen was present on the blasts in 33.3% of cases. The expression of the T-cell-associated CD7 antigen (46.2%) was frequent. The measurement of MRD was carried out during the treatment (usually after an induction course) on the basis of the markers of megakaryocytic cell line (CD61, CD41, CD42a, CD42b), weak CD45 expression, as well as the immunophenotype characteristics during initial diagnosis. The level of MRD ranged from completely negative (0%; 0.006%) to evident (1.05%). Conclusion.
