Clonal evolution in relapsed acute myeloid leukaemia revealed by whole-genome sequencing

Abstract excerpt

The sequencing of AML genomes of eight patients before and after relapse reveals two major patterns of clonal evolution, with chemotherapy appearing to have a role in both patterns. Many patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) achieve remission, but it is often short-lived and the returned disease is usually refractory to therapy. Genome sequencing of eight patients with AML before and after relapse reveals...
