1

As per AALL08B1.

2

Phenotype designates lineages involved, B/My = B+Myeloid, T/My = T+Myeloid, B/T= B+T, B/T/My = B+T+Myeloid.

3

Designates whether lineages are represented on one cell population (Biphenotypic) or two or more distinct populations (bilineal+).

4

Presence of myeloperoxidase (MPO) or CD19 on the MPAL blasts. MPAL = mixed phenotype acute leukemia. ALL= acute lymphoblastic leukemia, AML = acute myeloid leukemia, “hybrid” = elements of both ALL and AML therapy. CNS = central nervous system involvement, HSCT = hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, CR 1 = first remission.
