Background:BCR/ABL1-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia is a newly recognized high-risk subtype of ALL, characterized by the presence of genetic alterations activating kinase and cytokine receptor signaling. This subtype is associated with inferior outcomes, compared to other B-cell precursor ALL. Summary: The recognition of BCR/ABL1-like ALL is challenging due to the complexity of underlying genetic alterations. Rearrangements of CRLF2 are the most frequent alteration in BCR/ABL1-like ALL and can be identified by flow cytometry. The identification of BCR/ABL1-like ALL can be achieved with stepwise algorithms or broad-based testing. The main goal of the diagnostic analysis is to detect the underlying genetic alterations, which are critical for the diagnosis and targeted therapy. Key Messages: The aim of the manuscript is to review the available data on BCR/ABL1-like ALL characteristics, diagnostic algorithms, and novel, molecularly targeted therapeutic options.
