Abstract This report describes the clinical and laboratory features of seven cases of acute leukemia associated with the 4;11 chromosomal translocation. All seven children had acute lymphoblastic leukemia by standard morphologic and cytochemical criteria. Leukemic blasts from six of seven patients were terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase- positive. Immunologic phenotyping suggested the leukemias were of B cell origin; blasts from five patients expressed HLA-DR and p24 (CD-9 antibody), blasts from three patients expressed B4 (CD-19), and blasts from two patients expressed the common acute lymphoblastic leukemia antigen (CD-10). One patient's leukemic blasts contained cytoplasmic immunoglobulin. Analysis of DNA from four of five patients demonstrated additional evidence of B cell differentiation with heavy-chain immunoglobulin gene rearrangement. When DNA from the four patients with heavy-chain immunoglobulin gene rearrangement was analyzed, one patient's DNA demonstrated light-chain immunoglobulin gene rearrangement. However, flow cytometric analysis of blasts from three patients showed the simultaneous expression of the lymphoid-associated antigen B4 (CD-19) and the myeloid-associated antigen My-1 (X-Hapten). Electron microscopic examination of blasts from one patient that expressed both lymphoid- and myeloid-associated antigens demonstrated ultrastructural characteristics of both lineages. These findings suggest that acute leukemia with the t(4;11) abnormality has mixed lineage characteristics as a result of leukemogenesis in a multipotential progenitor cell or aberrant gene expression later in differentiation. Furthermore, serial analysis of karyotype, immunophenotype, and heavy-chain immunoglobulin genes revealed changes in these biologic markers over time, suggesting continued chromosome rearrangement and gene modulation after the leukemogenic event in cells with the t(4;11).

Abstract The frequency and clinical significance of acute leukemia displaying both lymphoid and myeloid characteristics was determined in 123 consecutive children using a panel of lineage-associated markers. The leukemic blasts from 18 of 95 children (19%) with the diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) by standard diagnostic criteria expressed myeloid-associated cell surface antigens. Despite immunological evidence of lymphoid differentiation (17 CALLA + and one T cell-associated antigen +) and findings of immunoglobulin gene rearrangement, blasts from these patients reacted with one to five monoclonal antibodies identifying myeloid-associated cell surface antigens (My-1, MCS.2, Mo1, SJ-D1, or 5F1). Dual staining with microsphere-conjugated antibodies and analysis by flow cytometry confirmed that some blasts were simultaneously expressing lymphoid- and myeloid-associated antigens. Conversely, blasts from seven of 28 patients (25%) with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL), diagnosed by otherwise standard morphological and cytochemical criteria, expressed lymphoid-associated surface antigens. Dual staining of individual blasts demonstrated simultaneous expression of myeloperoxidase (MPO) (including Auer rods) in association with either T-11, CALLA, or terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase. Blasts from one patient with ANLL demonstrated T cell receptor gene rearrangement, while blasts from another patient demonstrated characteristics associated with T (T-11), B (CALLA and heavy-chain immunoglobulin gene rearrangement), and myeloid (MPO) lineage. There were no consistent cytogenetic abnormalities, and no patient demonstrated independent leukemic clones. Each patient with typical ALL, except for myeloid-associated antigens, achieved complete remission with conventional induction therapy for ALL. By contrast, three of the seven children with ANLL whose blasts expressed the T-11 surface antigen failed ANLL induction therapy. These three patients subsequently achieved remission with ALL therapy.
