Introduction: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most frequent pediatric leukemia; it can be defined according to chromosomic and genomic data. Cytogenetic analyses and determination of chromosomal numbers (such as hypo- or hyperdiploidy) and/or specific chromosomal rearrangements are basic for ALL classification and treatment. Even though cure rates of childhood ALL are at ~95%, pharmacogenetic aspects are of raising importance. Material and Methods: We have analyzed the literature for ALL subtypes, corresponding therapy options, and pharmacogenetic implications. Results: Data for ALL subtypes such as B-ALL, T-ALL, Ph-like ALL, DS-ALL, ETP-ALL, BCR-ABL1-like ALL are presented here. The gene polymorphism which lead to metabolizability of 6-MP are ITPA variants (94C>A) and IVS2+21A>C, in conjunction with TPMT (238G>C, TPMT*3B 460G>A and *3C 719A>G and NUDT15 (415C>T). For methotrexate metabolism gene polymorphisms are found for gene MTHFR as C677T and A1298C. Conclusion: In the last decade in many hospital laboratories, pharmacogenetic aspects gain more and more importance. Application of many molecular biology methods provided progress in treatment and diagnosis of ALL patients. Combination therapy is proposed as an alternative to single drug treatments. |
