Relapse-enriched somatic variants drive drug resistance in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We used digital droplet-based polymerase chain reaction to establish whether relapse-enriched mutations in emerging subclones could be detected in peripheral blood samples before frank relapse. Although limitations in sensitivity for some probes hindered detection of certain variants, we successfully detected...
