Identification of additional cytogenetic and molecular genetic abnormalities in acute myeloid leukaemia with t(8;21)/<i>AML1‐ETO</i>
7 Aug 2006
Abstract excerpt
AML1-ETO collaborates with further genetic abnormalities to induce acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). We analysed 99 patients with an AML1-ETO rearrangement for additional aberrations. Frequent genetic abnormalities were, loss of a sex chromosome (56/99, 56.5%) and del(9)(q22) (24/99, 24.2%). The most frequent molecular aberrations were mutations of KITD816 (3/23, 13%) and NRAS (8/89, 8.9%). Further molecular...
