We describe here the first case of mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) with a t(12;17)(p13;q21)/TAF15-ZNF384, which also had der(1;18)(q10;q10) as an additional abnormality.

Thirty-one patients (27 with acute myeloid leukemia [AML], 2 with acute lymphocytic leukemia [ALL], and 2 with acute mixed lineage leukemia [AMLL]) treated with conventional chemotherapy (CHT) and 23 patients (13 AML, 5 ALL, and 5 with chronic myeloid leukemia [CML]) treated with allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) were monitored for WT1 expression levels in BM and peripheral blood (PB) by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction over a long-term period (mean, 29 months for CHT and 24 months for BMT).
These results suggested that allo-SCT is an effective treatment for MPAL, especially early in the disease course, and innovative transplant approaches are warranted to improve the transplant outcome of patients with MPAL who are not in remission.
These results suggest that the Ph1-positive and monosomy 7 AMLL in adults is de novo acute leukemia with both early B-lymphoid and myeloid phenotypes and may arise from malignant transformation of pluripotent stem cell, and expresses a heterogenous rearrangement pattern of the BCR gene.
Taken together, our data suggest that BTG1 deletions might play a role in leukemogenesis of BCP-ALL as well as of BCR-ABL1-positive MPAL and CML-BC (B-lineage).

Successful treatment of Philadelphia chromosome-positive mixed phenotype acute leukemia by appropriate alternation of second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors according to BCR-ABL1 mutation status.
Specific subsets of MPAL are defined by chromosomal anomalies such as the t(9;22) Philadelphia chromosome BCR-ABL1 or involvement of the MLL gene on chromosome 11q23.

Rearrangement of the beta and gamma chain genes of the TCR gene complex and of the Ig heavy chain genes were examined in three cases of childhood acute mixed lineage leukaemia.
Rearrangement of ZNF384 is common in B/M MPAL, and biallelic WT1 alterations are common in T/M MPAL, which shares genomic features with early T-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
