Co-occurrence of cytogenetic and molecular abnormalities is frequently seen in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The clinical outcome and genetic abnormalities of AML may vary; therefore, genetic investigation must be complex, using several techniques, to have an appropriate characterization of the AML genome and its clinical impact. The available molecular markers can predict prognosis only partially. Acute promyelocytic leukemia subtype M3 (AML M3) is a subtype of AML characterized by the presence of promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor alpha (PML-RARA) genes fusion. Targeted treatment with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and ATRA combined with arsenic trioxide significantly improved the survival of AML M3 patients. Unknown prognostic factors could contribute to the early death of these patients.

ClinVar (tool)

RRID:SCR_006169

Archive of aggregated information about sequence variation and its relationship to human health. Provides reports of relationships among human variations and phenotypes along with supporting evidence. Submissions from clinical testing labs, research labs, locus-specific databases, expert panels and professional societies are welcome. Collects reports of variants found in patient samples, assertions made regarding their clinical significance, information about submitter, and other supporting data. Alleles described in submissions are mapped to reference sequences, and reported according to HGVS standard.
