Karyotype at diagnosis is the major prognostic factor predicting relapse-free survival for patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with imatinib-combined chemotherapy.

abstract：:B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia-related genomic changes were analyzed by karyotyping, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and V(H) gene sequencing in a prospective clinical evaluation. The V(H) mutational status correlated with high-risk cytogenetic aberrations while no such relation could be demonstrated for spec...
