- W2134429215 abstract "Acute promyelocytic leukaemia (APL) is characterised by chromosomal rearrangements of 17q21, leading to fusion of the gene encoding retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARalpha) to a number of alternative partner genes (X), the most frequent of which are PML (>95%), PLZF (0.8%) and NPM (0.5%). Over the last few years, it has been established that the X-RARalpha fusion proteins play a key role in the pathogenesis of APL through recruitment of co-repressors and the histone deacetylase (HDAC)-complex to repress genes implicated in myeloid differentiation. Paradoxically, the X-RARalpha fusion protein has the potential to mediate myeloid differentiation at pharmacological doses of its ligand (all trans-retinoic acid (ATRA)), which is dependent on the dissociation of the HDAC/co-repressor complex. Arsenic compounds have also been shown to be promising therapeutic agents, leading to differentiation and apoptosis of APL blasts. It is now apparent that the nature of the RARalpha-fusion partner is a critical determinant of response to ATRA and arsenic, underlining the importance of cytogenetic and molecular characterisation of patients with suspected APL to determine the most appropriate treatment approach. Standard protocols involving ATRA combined with anthracycline-based chemotherapy, lead to cure of approximately 70% patients with PML-RARalpha-associated APL. Patients at high risk of relapse can be identified by minimal residual disease monitoring. The challenge for future studies is to improve complete remission rates through reduction of induction deaths, particularly due to haemorrhage, identification of patients at high risk of relapse who would benefit from additional therapy, and identification of a favourable-risk group, for which treatment intensity could be reduced, thereby reducing risks of treatment toxicity and development of secondary leukaemia/myelodysplasia. With the advent of ATRA and arsenic, APL has already provided the first example of successful molecularly targeted therapy; it is hoped that with further understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease, the next decade will yield further improvements in the outlook for these patients." @default.
