Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) is the most commonly mutated gene in acute myeloid leukemia. Detection of NPM1 mutations is useful for stratifying patients for therapy, predicting prognosis, and assessing for minimal residual disease. Several methods have been developed to rapidly detect NPM1 mutations in genomic DNA and/or messenger RNA specimens. OBJECTIVE: To directly compare a quantitative real-time...
