[ 1 ] - The Prognostic Impact of WT1 Expression Levels, Mutations, and SNP rs16754 in AML Patients: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Background and Objective: The clinical outcomes and treatment options for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients are highly dependent upon molecular markers. In this study, Wilms tumor (WT1) (exons 7 and 9) mutations, SNP rs16754, and WT1 expression levels in 130 random AML patients were screened; FMs-like tyrosine kinase-3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD), nucleophosmin (NPM1), and CCAAT/...

[ 2 ] - The long-term outcome and efficacy of PR1/BCR-ABL multipeptides vaccination in chronic myeloid leukemia: results of a 7-year longitudinal investigation

Background: Although Imatinib has revolutionized the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), not all patients reach complete remission and a considerable proportion of the patients develop resistance to Imatinib. Material and Methods: In an attempt to increase the tail on the survival curve, we conducted a Phase I/II study of PR1/BCR-ABL multipeptides vaccination trial in CML patients wit...
