Minimal residual disease monitoring via AML1-ETO breakpoint tracing in childhood acute myeloid leukemia.


ABSTRACT: Relapse of childhood AML1-ETO (AE) acute myeloid leukemia is the most common cause of treatment failure. Optimized minimal residual disease monitoring methods is required to prevent relapse. In this study, we used next-generation sequencing to identify the breakpoints in the fusion gene and the DNA-based droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) method was used for dynamic monitoring of AE-DNA. The ddPCR technique provides more sensitive and precise quantitation of the AE gene during disease progression and relapse. Quantification of the AE fusion gene by ddPCR further contributes to improved prognosis. Our study provides valuable methods for dynamic surveillance of AE fusion DNA and assistance in determining the prognosis.
