Abnormal CD13/HLA-DR Expression Pattern on Myeloblasts Predicts Development of Myeloid Neoplasia in Patients With Clonal Cytopenia of Undetermined Significance.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Patients with clonal cytopenia of undetermined significance (CCUS) are at increased risk of developing myeloid neoplasia (MN). We evaluated whether a simple flow cytometry immunophenotyping (FCIP) assay could differentiate the risk of development of MN in patients with CCUS.

Methods

Bone marrow aspirates were assessed by FCIP panel in a cohort of 80 patients identified as having CCUS based on next-generation sequencing or cytogenetics from March 2015 to May 2020, with available samples. Flow cytometric assay included CD13/HLA-DR expression pattern on CD34-positive myeloblasts; CD13/CD16 pattern on maturing granulocytic precursors; and aberrant expression of CD2, CD7, or CD56 on CD34-positive myeloblasts. Relevant demographic, comorbidity, and clinical and laborato
