[The Significance of Genetic Testing for Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia].
The majority of patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) harbor the t (15;17) (q22;q12) transloca- tion, which results in the expression of PML-RARA mRNA. All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is a representa- tive molecular-targeted drug and is directed against PML-RARA. Therefore, the detection of PML-RARA mRNA has become indispensable for the diagnosis of APL and the decision regarding the treatment policy. Once the diagnosis is confirmed by genetic testing, ATRA-based induction therapy can be initiated. This is also applicable in atypical cases such as the M3 variant. Furthermore, after ATRA-based induction therapy, the curative effect is evaluated by quantitative PCR analysis. Thus, genetic testing is important in the follow-up of patients with APL. [Review].
