CHRONIC LEUKEMIA

CHRONIC LUNG CANCER

QuestionAnswer
Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia - highest incidence of all leukemias - high prevalence/slow progression TYPES OF CLL: B-cell and T-cell
RF of CLL - Family Hx - Age - Sex - Exposed to agent orange - Monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis
Dx of CLL - established by flow cytometry of blood ( monoclonal B lymphocytes) - Clonality of B cell to be confirmed by flow cytometry - Adequate immunophenotyping to establish dx
Symptoms of CLL - fatigue, fever, swollen LN, night sweats, unexplained weight loss, pain or sense of fullness under ribs
Complications of CLL - can develop into lymphoma - increased risk of skin, lung or colon cancer - Anemia - Thrombocytopenia - Frequent Infections
Goals in CLL - Relief of symptoms - Correct cytopenias - Response
B symptoms fever > 100.4F, drenching night sweats, weight loss (>10% in 6 mos)
Work up for CLL H&P, Peripheral blood smear, performance status, Assess B symptoms, Perform flow cytometry
CLL Cytogenetics Analysis Deletion 11q & Del 17P/TP53 11q MAY respond well to fludarabine + alkylator, 17P has poor response to chemoimmunotherapy
CLL treatments watchful waiting, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, surgery, targeted therapy, transplant (if refractory)
CLL 1st line treatment - venetoclax + obinutuzumab - venetoclax + acalabrutinib +/- obinutuzumab - Zanubrutinib - Acalabrutinib +/- Obinutuzumab
ADRs of CLL regimens * Acalabrutinib = avoid CYP3A4 strong inh or inducers, antacids and H2 blockers and grapefruit *Zanubrutinib = Avoid CYP3A4 inhib or inducer and avoid GF * Obinutuzumab = NONEEE * Venetoclax = CYP3A4 inducers and inhibitors and PgP inhibitors
Philadelphia Chromosome - leads to production of BCR-ABL protein - constitutively active tyrosine kinase
CML clinical presentation - leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, anemia, basophilia + eosinophilia, splenomegaly, no increases infection risk
Sokal Risk Score Factors considered during risk calculation: patient age, spleen size, plt count, % blast in peripheral blood. Risk Category: LOW: <0.8 Intermediate: 0.8 to 1.2 HIGH: >1.2
CML 1st line therapy * Low risk: imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, bosutinib, asciminib * Intermediate OR HIGH risk: Bosutanib, Asciminib, Nilotinib, Dasatinib * T315I mutation: Ponatinib (preferred), Asciminib
Asciminib (Scemblix) MOA: BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase inhibitor, especially targets CML cell with T315I mutation
