Clinical characteristics.CEBPA-associated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is defined as AML in which a CEBPA is present in a family in which multiple individuals have AML. In contrast, CEBPA-associated AML is defined as AML in which a CEBPA pathogenic variant(s) is identified in leukemic cells but not in the non-leukemic cells. Too few individuals with CEBPA-associated familial AML have been reported to be certain about the natural history of the disease.

In the majority of individuals, the age of onset of familial AML appears to be earlier than sporadic AML; disease onset has been reported in persons as young as age 1.8 years and older than age 45 years. The prognosis of CEBPA-associated familial AML appears to be favorable compared with sporadic CEBPA-associated AML. Individuals with CEBPA-associated familial AML who have been cured of their initial disease may be at greater risk of developing additional independent leukemic episodes in addition to the risk of relapse due to preexisting clones. Management.Treatment of manifestations: Treatment usually includes cytarabine/anthracycline-based induction and cytarabine-based consolidation chemotherapy. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from a volunteer unrelated donor (VUD) or appropriately screened family member should be reserved for individuals failing to achieve remission following standard induction therapy or for disease recurrence. Whenever possible, persons with AML should be treated as part of a clinical trial protocol.Prevention of secondary complications: Similar to that for other types of AML (i.e., administration of blood products such as red blood cell and platelet transfusions as needed; treatment of infections with antibiotics; and use of prophylactic antibiotics and anti-fungal agents during periods of severe neutropenia).Surveillance: Similar to that for other forms of AML.

Because of the increased risk of leukemia recurrence in persons with AML, lifelong surveillance may be warranted. Genetic counseling.Predisposition to CEBPA-associated AML is inherited in an manner. Most individuals diagnosed with CEBPA-associated familial AML have had an parent who shares the. Germline CEBPA pathogenic variants exhibit complete or near-complete for the development of AML in families reported to date. Each child of an affected individual has a 50% chance of inheriting the germline pathogenic variant. Prenatal diagnosis for pregnancies at increased risk is possible if the germline CEBPA pathogenic variant in the family is known.

Aberrant CD7 expression on blasts as demonstrated by flow cytometryNote: A provisional diagnostic category of 'AML with mutated CEBPA' was proposed in the WHO Classification of Tumours of Haematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues. This classification is primarily intended for AML and does not distinguish forms of disease or the presence of a in one or both copies of CEBPA; only the latter have favorable prognostic significance in AML.For this GeneReview, the following definitions are used:CEBPA-associated AML is defined by the presence of a CEBPA. Germline variants may be inherited across multiple generations or develop in parental germ cells, prior to their transmission. Once inherited, they are present in every cell of an individual as part of their unique genetic make-up.

Germline CEBPA pathogenic variants typically coincide with a family history of AML and the diagnosis is established by either of the following:. Establishing the DiagnosisThe diagnosis of CEBPA-associated AML is established in a with a confirmed CEBPA (see ). Because CEBPA-associated familial AML develops from cells that have a pathogenic (cancer-predisposing) variant in both copies of CEBPA, leukemic cells frequently demonstrate both a germline and a somatic CEBPA variant at AML diagnosis. The germline pathogenic variant is typically a frameshift located in the CEBPA region encoding the N-terminal C/EBPα protein, while the second acquired in leukemic cells is typically in the region encoding the C-terminal (see ).Note: In the literature, the terms CEBPAdm and CEBPAsm may be used. These terms refer to leukemic cells with a in both copies of CEBPA (' double mutation') or in only one copy of CEBPA (' single mutation'). These terms alone do not specify if the pathogenic variant is or somatic (see ).Molecular testing approaches include single- testing and use of a:. Note: (1) Testing for a should not be performed on blood or bone marrow during active AML.

Testing a non-involved specimen, such as cells obtained by buccal swab/saliva, skin biopsy or cultured dendritic cells, is imperative. Ms excel 2007 manual pdf free download. (2) It should be noted that CEBPA pathogenic variants are found in the leukemic cells of approximately 9% of persons with AML, including 15%-18% of persons with normal- AML ,. However, few of these individuals have a germline CEBPA pathogenic variant. (3) Testing of blood or bone marrow during complete remission from AML may also be performed to detect germline variants. The percentage of residual leukemic cells in remission samples is negligible, ensuring that somatic variants are not falsely classified as germline variants. A that includes CEBPA and other genes of interest (see ) may also be considered. Note: (1) The genes included in the panel and the diagnostic of the testing used for each vary by laboratory and are likely to change over time.

(2) Some multigene panels may include genes not associated with the condition discussed in this GeneReview; thus, clinicians need to determine which multigene panel is most likely to identify the genetic cause of the condition at the most reasonable cost while limiting identification of variants of and pathogenic variants in genes that do not explain the underlying. (3) In some laboratories, panel options may include a custom laboratory-designed panel and/or custom phenotype-focused analysis that includes genes specified by the clinician. (4) Methods used in a panel may include, and/or other non-sequencing-based tests. Clinical DescriptionGermline CEBPA pathogenic variants were first associated with the transmission of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in 2004. Over the last decade, more than ten families have been reported, all manifesting a highly penetrant AML as described above.

Given the limited number of individuals described in the literature, it is possible that the true range of clinical phenotypes may vary and ongoing investigation of this syndrome is essential.The age of onset of CEBPA-associated AML is variable, but appears to be earlier than AML. Disease onset has been reported in persons as young as 1.8 years and older than 45 years. By contrast, the median age at diagnosis of persons with sporadic AML is 65 years.From an analysis of ten pedigrees with CEBPA-associated AML, the disease follows a course similar to AML with CEBPA pathogenic variants in both copies ( CEBPAdm). The prognosis of individuals with familial AML appears to be favorable, with ten-year overall survival (OS) reaching 67%, compared to 54% OS of younger adults with sporadic AML associated with two CEBPA pathogenic variants and 29% OS with sporadic AML associated with a single CEBPA.Individuals with CEBPA-associated AML who have been cured of their initial disease may be at greater risk of developing recurrent, independent leukemic episodes that are characterized by a different somatic CEBPA from that observed in the original tumor clone. This phenomenon contrasts with relapse in individuals with AML, where CEBPA pathogenic variants are stable throughout the disease course ,. PrevalenceCEBPA-associated AML is very rare, with only eleven pedigrees reported as of this writing ,.It has been suggested that 5%-10% of individuals with presumed CEBPA-associated AML, may have a CEBPA.

Reported that two of 18 individuals (11%) with CEBPA-associated AML had a germline CEBPA pathogenic variant and a family history of AML. A larger series reported by identified a germline CEBPA pathogenic variant in five of 71 individuals (7%); two of the five had a family history of AML. Treatment of ManifestationsManagement of CEBPA-associated AML does not differ from that of CEBPA-associated AML ,.Treatment usually includes cytarabine/anthracycline-based induction and cytarabine-based consolidation chemotherapy with or without HSCT according to clinical, and molecular risk. For younger individuals with AML (even those without a clear family history), there is now increasing awareness that variants should be investigated and excluded prior to consideration of HSCT using sib/related donors.

Specific treatment strategies are based on characteristics of the individual, response to chemotherapy, treatment setting, and protocol (if the individual is enrolled in a clinical trial). Note: Whenever possible, persons with AML should be treated as part of a clinical trial protocol.Relapses are treated with cytarabine-based salvage chemotherapy followed by allogeneic HSCT (if a suitable donor is available and if cure is the intent of treatment). SurveillanceAffected individuals. Surveillance for CEBPA-associated AML is similar to that for other forms of AML.

There are no generally accepted minimal residual disease (MRD) markers in CEBPA-associated AML or in most other AML subtypes with normal karyotypes.Individuals are monitored and evaluated in accordance with administered treatment, clinical course, symptoms, and protocol, if enrolled in clinical trials. When complete remission is achieved and intensification therapy is complete, individuals are monitored with:. Bone marrow aspiration when cytopenia and/or an abnormal peripheral blood smear are present.Note: The use of flow cytometry for MRD monitoring is controversial.Individuals with a CEBPA who are cured of their initial disease episode may be at risk for new leukemic episodes, often occurring after a prolonged period of remission (3 years post presentation) ,. In light of these data, lifelong clinical surveillance is warranted to ensure prompt recognition and appropriate management of disease recurrence. Repeat testing of CEBPA at recurrence is important to help distinguish conventional relapse from new, independent leukemic episodes.Asymptomatic carriers. Asymptomatic individuals with a pathogenic CEBPA may be reviewed with CBC profiling every six to 12 months. Bone marrow examination may be performed if there is an appropriate clinical indication (e.g., abnormalities in CBC).

Referral for post-testing should be considered as appropriate. Evaluation of Relatives at RiskTo date, all individuals with pathogenic CEBPA variants have presented with overt AML without any preceding blood count abnormalities or myelodysplasia, this in contrast with other leukemia syndromes such as those associated with germline RUNX1 or GATA2 pathogenic variants.The decision to test for an inherited is ultimately governed by personal choice, the reassurance of regular clinical follow up, and provision of.

It is noteworthy that clinical monitoring may enable earlier diagnosis (and treatment) of AML, hence minimizing the risks associated with delayed presentation (e.g., severe anemia, neutropenic sepsis, and severe hemorrhage), providing further rationale for molecular evaluation of at-risk relatives. There are currently no preemptive treatments available for asymptomatic carriers of a CEBPA pathogenic variant.See for issues related to testing of at-risk relatives for purposes. Genetic CounselingGenetic counseling is the process of providing individuals and families withinformation on the nature, inheritance, and implications of genetic disorders to help themmake informed medical and personal decisions. The following section deals with geneticrisk assessment and the use of family history and genetic testing to clarify geneticstatus for family members.

This section is not meant to address all personal, cultural, orethical issues that individuals may face or to substitute for consultation with a geneticsprofessional. The sibs of a with clinically unaffected parents are still at increased risk for CEBPA-associated AML as the may demonstrate differences in disease manifestation and latency across family members.Offspring of a. Each child of an individual with CEBPA-associated AML has a 50% chance of inheriting the.Other family members. The risk of other family members inheriting the CEBPA depends on the status of the 's parents: if a parent is and/or has the germline pathogenic variant, his or her family members may be at risk.

Related Genetic Counseling IssuesSee Management, for information on evaluating at-risk relatives for the purpose of early diagnosis and treatment.Considerations in families with an apparent. If neither parent of a with CEBPA-associated AML has the pathogenic variant or clinical evidence of AML, the CEBPA pathogenic variant is likely de novo. However, non-medical explanations including or maternity (e.g., with assisted reproduction) and undisclosed adoption could also be explored.Testing of at-risk asymptomatic family members. If a CEBPA has been identified in a family member with AML, may be offered to at-risk family members in order to determine the need for clinical surveillance (see ).Family planning. It is appropriate to offer (including discussion of potential risks to offspring and reproductive options) to young adults who are or at risk.DNA banking is the storage of DNA (typically extracted from white blood cells) for possible future use. Because it is likely that testing methodology and our understanding of genes, allelic variants, and diseases will improve in the future, consideration should be given to banking DNA of individuals.In AML generally, tissue banking that is performed for future research purposes should include banking of DNA, RNA, protein lysates, and cryopreserved cells.

Prenatal Testing and Preimplantation Genetic DiagnosisOnce a CEBPA has been identified in an family member, prenatal testing and for a pregnancy at increased risk for CEBPA-associated AML are possible options.Differences in perspective may exist among medical professionals and within families regarding the use of prenatal testing, particularly if the testing is being considered for the purpose of pregnancy termination rather than early diagnosis. Although decisions about prenatal testing are the choice of the parents, discussion of these issues is appropriate. Molecular Genetic PathogenesisCEBPA encodes the CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (C/EBPα), a that plays a key role in granulocyte development. A detailed review of the role of C/EBPα in human cancer has been published. The role of mutation of CEBPA in the formation of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is not well understood and is subject to ongoing research with several established mouse models simulating N- terminal frameshift mutations , combined N- and C- terminal mutations , or conditional loss of C/EBPα.Note: The terms CEBPAdm and CEBPAsm are used in the literature and refer to leukemic cells with a in both ('double mutation') or in a single copy of CEBPA ('single mutation'), respectively.

These terms do not indicate the location of variants within the or whether they are or somatic. As mentioned previously, the latter distinction is based upon the identification of pathogenic variants in non-leukemic DNA. In individuals with AML (caused by the somatic acquisition of CEBPA pathogenic variants), double and single mutated subtypes occur with approximately equal frequency. Notably, only double CEBPA mutations (predominantly combining N-terminal frameshift and C-terminal insertions or deletions) are associated with favorable prognostic significance ,.Gene structure. CEBPA is a single-; the primary CEBPA transcript is 2631 bp.

Initiation of translation at two AUG start codons (nucleotides 151-153 and 508-51) results in two C/EBPα protein. For a detailed summary of gene and protein information, see, Gene.Benign variants. A few benign variants in the CEBPA have been reported (see ).Pathogenic variants.

All reported pathogenic germline variants are small deletions, duplications, or insertions resulting in a frameshift causing premature truncation at the N-terminal region of the C/EBPα protein. The analytic of is expected to be 99% for variants within the. The germline variants identified to date are listed in; the c.217218insC variant has been reported in two pedigrees. Thus far, reported germline variants have been small insertions/deletions that result in frameshifts in CEBPA regions that encode the N-terminal region of the protein and predict premature termination of synthesis of the full-length C/EBPα protein (see Normal ). Reported in two pedigreesNormal. The use of alternative non-AUG (GUG) and AUG start codons results in protein with different lengths (see, Gene). When translation initiates from the AUG at nucleotides 151-153, isoform a (also known as C/EBP-42) is produced; it is a 42-kd of 358 amino acids.

The full-length 42-kd protein contains two distinct N-terminal transactivation domains (mediate contact with transcriptional apparatus), a C-terminal basic region (DNA-binding), and a leucine zipper for dimerization.Alternatively, when translation initiates from the alternative start site at AUG at nucleotides 508-510, a 30-kd (also known as C/EBP-30) isoform b of 239 amino acids that lacks the first transactivation and impairs interaction with the transcriptional apparatus is produced. The C-terminal domains are intact ,. Evidence from cell culture identified C/EBPα protein as a tumor suppressor and an inhibitor of cell proliferation. Evidence from mouse models is consistent with the tumor suppressor activity being in the 42-kd isoform and transformation in the absence of 42 kd is mediated by a 30-kd isoform which has a effect leading to the formation of progenitors prone to deregulated proliferation and transformation abstracted from.Abnormal. The reported pathogenic variants in CEBPA occur before codon 120 and cause/predict premature termination of synthesis of the full-length C/EBPα protein, with preservation of the 30-kd isoform. The 30-kd protein is believed to inhibit the action of the normal 42-kd protein encoded by the remaining normal in a manner.Somatic CEBPA pathogenic variants.
