The expression of the surface molecule CD38 on B cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) cells has recently been described as a prognostic marker for patient survival. We have analyzed CD19/CD38 expression in 81 patients with predominantly early stages of B-CLL (69 Binet A, seven Binet B, five Binet C). Sixty-two patients (77%) had less than 30% CD38+/CD19+ cells, while 19 (23%) had > or = 30%.
