Minimal Residual Disease Detection at RNA and Leukemic Stem Cell (LSC) Levels: Comparison of RT-qPCR, d-PCR and CD26+ Stem Cell Measurements in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) Patients in Deep Molecular Response (DMR)

Abstract excerpt

A Deep Molecular Response (DMR), defined as a BCR::ABL1 transcript at levels ≤ 0.01% by RT-qPCR, is the prerequisite for the successful interruption of treatment among patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML). However, approximately 50% of patients in Treatment-Free Remission (TFR) studies had to resume therapy after their BCR::ABL1 transcript levels rose above the 0.1% threshold. To improve transcript...
