Use of the activating gene mutation of the tyrosine kinase (VAL617Phe) JAK2 as a minimal residual disease marker in patients with myelofibrosis and myeloid metaplasia after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Abstract excerpt

Here we report on the use of a new real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method to detect and quantify the activating gene mutation of the tyrosine kinase JAK2. We evaluated patients with myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM; n=25) for the gene mutation prior to allogeneic stem cell tra...
