Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Chromosomal abnormalities and gene mutations determine the prognosis of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Genetic lesions can be acquired by clonal evolution (CE) likely correlating with clinical progression. METHODS AND RESULTS: Samples of 169 CLL patients were analyzed for cytogenetic clonal evolution (CCE) and CE affecting the genes TP53 and SF3B1. Moreover, the mutational status of...
