Abstract
With the improvement of treatment methods in acute hematology malignancies, the development of sensitive tools for minimal residual disease assessment has become a priority. The monitoring of WT1 expression level by real-time quantitative PCR has been a standard for minimal residual disease evaluation in acute myeloid leukemia and, since 2009, has been optimized through a European LeukemiaNet effort in an established protocol with well-defined clinical end points. Building on the work of the European LeukemiaNet, this article reports the development of a novel, one-step duplex WT1/ABL1 droplet digital assay for WT1 overexpression detection. This assay provides accurate data with high precision and linearity, even at low-template concentration, while retaining strong correlation with the standardized method and therefore maintaining the framework to analyze the results in the context of acute myeloid leukemia patients.
