Detection of Minimal Residual Disease in B Lymphoblastic Leukemia by High-Throughput Sequencing of <i>IGH</i>
26 Jun 2014
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: High-throughput sequencing (HTS) of immunoglobulin heavy-chain genes (IGH) in unselected clinical samples for minimal residual disease (MRD) in B lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) has not been tested. As current MRD-detecting methods such as flow cytometry or patient-specific qPCR are complex or difficult to standardize in the clinical laboratory, sequencing may enhance clinical prognostication....
