Abstract excerpt
t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is prognostically favorable; however, outcome is heterogeneous. We analyzed 139 patients with t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1-positive AML (de novo: n=117; therapy-related: n=22) to determine frequency and prognostic impact of additional genetic abnormalities. All patients were investigated for mutations (mut) in ASXL1, FLT3, KIT, NPM1, MLL, IDH1, IDH2, KRAS,...
