[12] This classification uses the molecular markers to subdivide the intermediate-risk AML into a more favorable Intermediate-I and a less favorable Intermediate-II category. Efficacy and safety of different doses of cytarabine in consolidation therapy for adult acute myeloid leukemia patients: a network meta-analysis. Prognostic factors in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may be subdivided into those related to patient characteristics and general health condition, and those related to characteristics of the tumor. 2011;365:725-33. Additionally, non-myeloablative and reduced-intensity conditioning regimens are increasingly making HSCT an option for older patients and those with comorbid conditions, although further studies are necessary to demonstrate a survival advantage of HSCT over chemotherapy for fit but older patients with high-risk AML. Monosomal karyotype in adult acute myeloid leukemia: prognostic impact and outcome after different treatment strategies.

32. The influence of age on prognosis of de novo acute myeloid leukemia differs according to cytogenetic subgroups. 2012;53:110-7. Cornelissen JJ, Breems D, van Putten WL, et al. This site needs JavaScript to work properly. Pretreatment cytogenetic abnormalities are predictive of induction success, cumulative incidence of relapse, and overall survival in adult patients with de novo acute myeloid leukemia: results from Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB 8461). Cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) is one form of a cancer of the blood-forming tissue (bone marrow) called acute myeloid leukemia. 6. Karyotypic analysis predicts outcome of preremission and postremission therapy in adult acute myeloid leukemia: a Southwest Oncology Group/Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Study. Systematic evaluation for an increasing number of nonrandom mutations in AML has allowed better stratification of AMLs with normal cytogenetics (CN-AML), which represent a large proportion (almost 50%) of newly diagnosed cases.

15. Comparable survival after HLA-well-matched unrelated or matched sibling donor transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia in first remission with unfavorable cytogenetics at diagnosis. 2010;28:556-61. A recent SWOG analysis found that the 4-year survival for patients with complex cytogenetics but without an MK was 13%, but for those with an MK it was only 3%. Data from single centers and transplant registries show that outcomes after transplants from HLA-matched unrelated donors are similar to those from matched siblings.

25. Prognostic factors in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may be subdivided into those related to patient characteristics and general health condition, and those related to characteristics of the tumor. 5. In cancer cytogenetics, karyotype complexity has traditionally been considered as a sign of clonal evolution and high mutation load, particularly in the presence of multiple related abnormal clones.

3. Similarly puzzling is the recently described category of AML with MK, and its reportedly dismal prognosis.

Clinical trials of novel therapeutics should be recommended. Rossi G, Pelizzari AM, Bellotti D, Tonelli M, Barlati S. Leukemia. 20. 2004;83(Suppl 1):S106-7.

In this review the common cytogenetic abnormalities seen in AML with reference to associations with the French-American-British (FAB) classification, their possible prognostic significance and their associated molecular biology are summarized.
