Accurate classification and risk prediction are critical for therapeutic decision-making in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Myelodysplasia-related (MR) gene mutations are classified as adverse genetic factors by the European LeukaemiaNet-2022 guidelines. However, their prognostic value in de novo AML remains controversial.

Minimal residual disease (MRD) based risk stratification criteria for specific genetic subtypes remained unclear in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Among 723 children with newly diagnosed ALL treated with the Chinese Children Leukemia Group CCLG-2008 protocol, MRD was assessed at time point 1 (TP1, at the end of induction) and TP2 (before consolidation treatment) and the MRD levels significantly differed in patients with different fusion genes or immunophenotypes (P all < 0.001).

Introduction: The decisive key to disease-free survival in B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children, is the combination of diagnostic timeliness and treatment efficacy, guided by accurate patient risk stratification. Implementation of standardized and high-precision diagnostic/prognostic systems is particularly important in the most marginalized geographic areas in Mexico, where high numbers of the pediatric population resides and the highest relapse and early death rates due to acute leukemias are recorded even in those cases diagnosed as standard risk.
Methods: By using a multidimensional and integrated analysis of the immunophenotype of leukemic cells, the immunological context and the tumor microenvironment, this study aim to capture the snapshot of acute leukemia at disease debut of a cohort of Mexican children from vulnerable regions in Puebla, Oaxaca and Tlaxcala and its potential use in risk stratification.

Background: Risk stratification of high-risk neuroblastoma (NB) is crucial for exploring treatments. This study aimed to explore the value of minimal residual disease (MRD) based on PHOX2B levels for further risk stratification in high-risk NB.
Methods: The expression of PHOX2B was monitored at two time points (after two and six cycles of induction chemotherapy, TP1 and TP2, respectively) by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
