Predictive value of DNA methylation patterns in AML patients treated with an azacytidine containing induction regimen

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease with a poor prognosis. Dysregulation of the epigenetic machinery is a significant contributor to disease development. Some AML patients benefit from treatment with hypomethylating agents (HMAs), but no predictive biomarkers for therapy response...

Descrizione
Riassunto:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease with a poor prognosis. Dysregulation of the epigenetic machinery is a significant contributor to disease development. Some AML patients benefit from treatment with hypomethylating agents (HMAs), but no predictive biomarkers for therapy response exist. Here, we investigated whether unbiased genome-wide assessment of pre-treatment DNA-methylation profiles in AML bone marrow blasts can help to identify patients who will achieve a remission after an azacytidine-containing induction regimen.
