Sensitive quantitation of minimal residual disease in chronic myeloid leukemia using nanofluidic digital polymerase chain reaction assay
21 Feb 2011
Abstract excerpt
Undetectable BCR-ABL transcripts in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) should not be regarded as indicative of a cure, due to the sensitivity limit of current real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR) technology. To demonstrate the feasibility of more sensitive approaches, 62 samples from 43 patients with CML were screened by conventional RQ-PCR, replicate RQ-PCR (rRQ-PCR), and/or...
