Core binding factor acute myeloid leukemia (CBF AML), with t(8;21)(q22;q22), inv(16)(p13q22) or t(16;16)(p13;q22) and the associated fusion gene transcripts AML1/ETO or CBFbeta/MYH11, has a favourable clinical prognosis although significant numbers of patients still suffer relapse.

Core Binding Factor acute myeloid leukemia (CBF-AML) with t(8;21) RUNX1-MTG8 or inv(16) CBFB-MYH11 fusion proteins often show upregulation of wild type or mutated KIT receptor.

Core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia (CBF-AML) is defined by the presence of either t(8;21)(q22;q22)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1 or inv(16)(p13.1q22)/t(16;16)(p13.1;q22)/CBFB-MYH11.

Core-binding factor acute myeloid leukaemia (CBF AML) defined by t(8;21)(q22;q22) or inv(16)(p13q22)/t(16;16)(p13;q22) has a favourable prognosis; however, 30%-40% of patients still relapse after chemotherapy.
KIT D816 mutation associates with adverse outcomes in core binding factor acute myeloid leukemia, especially in the subgroup with RUNX1/RUNX1T1 rearrangement.
D816V mutation in the KIT gene activation loop has greater cell-proliferative and anti-apoptotic ability than N822K mutation in core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia.
CD56 expression, Pgp expression and function, and expression of the additional MDR proteins multidrug resistance protein-1 (MRP-1), lung resistance protein (LRP) and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) were studied in pretreatment blasts from 25 CBF-AML patients.
Expression of the neural cell adhesion molecule CD56 is not associated with P-glycoprotein overexpression in core-binding factor acute myeloid leukemia.

For routine clinical practice, it may be meaningful to screen for C-KIT mutations in AML1/ETO-positive patients, as well as for FLT3(D835) mutations in CBF-AML.

Gain-of-function KIT mutations are usually acquired and have been associated with myeloid malignancies including core binding factor acute myeloid leukemia and systemic mastocytosis (SM), germ cell tumors, gastrointestinal stromal tumors and sinonasal T cell lymphomas.
