Laboratory assay overview
WT1 mutations occur in up to 15% of patients with AML. Cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (CN-AML) is the largest subgroup of AML, which represents approximately 45% of adult patients with AML. A WT1 mutation at diagnosis is associated with poor, outcome; it independently predicts a higher risk of relapse when other molecular markers with established prognostic significance and clinical variables are taken into consideration.
