MARKERS OF POOR PROGNOSIS ACUTE MYELOID LEUKEMIAS (AMLS) AND USES THEREOF

摘要

Genes exhibiting specific mutational and/or transcriptional patterns in poor prognosis AMLs, such as EVI1-rearranged acute myeloid leukemias (EVI1-r AMLs), relative to other types of AMLs and/or normal CD34+ cells, are disclosed. The use of these mutational and/or transcriptional patterns, for example the expression level of the PRKC Apoptosis WT1 Regulator (PAWR) gene, for the diagnosis or prognosis of AMLs, including intermediate-risk AMLs, is also disclosed.
