Associated Genetic Biomarkers

Overview

NCI Definition: A clonal expansion of myeloid blasts in the bone marrow, blood or other tissues. The classification of acute myeloid leukemias (AMLs) encompasses four major categories: 1) AML with recurrent genetic abnormalities; 2) AML with multilineage dysplasia; 3) Therapy-related AML; 4) AML not otherwise specified. The required bone marrow or peripheral blood blast percentage for the diagnosis of AML is 20% (WHO classification). [1]

Acute myeloid leukemias most frequently harbor alterations in DNMT3A, FLT3, TP53, NPM1, and RUNX1 [2].

Most Commonly Altered Genes in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

DNMT3A Mutation, FLT3 Mutation, NPM1fs, TP53 Mutation, and TP53 Missense are the most common alterations in acute myeloid leukemia [2].
