AI Article Synopsis

  • The study focused on FLT3 mRNA expression in bone marrow samples from 85 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, including 23 in complete remission.
  • Researchers evaluated the potential of FLT3 as a marker for minimal residual disease (MRD) and its prognostic value.
  • The findings suggest that FLT3 expression has limited effectiveness for both monitoring MRD and predicting patient outcomes.

Article Abstract

We studied wild-type FLT3 mRNA expression at diagnosis in bone marrow samples from 85 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 23 of whom were in complete remission, and determined its utility as a marker for minimal residual disease (MRD). We conclude that FLT3 expression is of limited value as a prognostic marker and for MRD monitoring.
