CDCR and HHS scientists found early detection of mixed chimerism—when patient DNA remains after donor stem cell transplant—predicts relapse in AML. Checking at 30 days allows earlier intervention and improved survival. #CancerResearch #AML www.hamiltonhealthsciences.ca/share/cancer...
DNA from donor cells a key indicator of survival rates for transplant recipients - Hamilton Health Sciences
Early detection of mixed chimerism in AML patients could mean improved survival rates through early intervention.
