[There was a clear-cut clinical difference between the 28 patients having a balanced 11q23 anomaly/MLL rearrangement and the 17 patients having an unbalanced chromosomal anomaly: AML with unbalanced 11q23 anomalies occurred in older patients (P = 0.07) tended to be less frequently associated with previous exposure to topoisomerase II-active drugs and with M4/M5 FAB cytological subtypes, were always associated with other chromosomal anomalies (P < 0.0001), expressed more frequently the CD34 antigen (P = 0.05) and were of considerably poorer prognosis for achievement of CR (P = 0.005) and survival (P = 0.0005).].
