Clonal evolution in chronic lymphocytic leukemia studied by interphase fluorescence in-situ hybridization
1 Jan 2009
Abstract excerpt
The results of repeated interphase fluorescence in-situ hybridization (I-FISH, FISH) examination of 97 CLL patients and correlation of these findings with IgVH hypermutation status, ZAP-70 and CD38 expression are presented. The appearance of new, FISH-detectable, genomic aberrations during disease course, described as clonal evolution (CE), was observed in 26% of patients. The most frequent newly acquired...
