  • Publication number: 20130345091
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for the identification, prognosis, classification, treatment, and diagnosis of leukemia or a genetic predisposition to leukemia are provided. The present invention is based on the discovery of various genomic abnormalities of the IKZF1 gene which are shown herein to be associated with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), more particularly, associated with BCR-ABL1 positive ALL and/or shown to be associated with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), more particularly, associated with blast crisis chronic myeloid leukemia (BC-CML) and/or the likelihood of progression into blastic transformation of CML. These various genomic abnormalities of the IKZF1 gene can further be used as prognostic markers to identify a subgroup of ALL having very poor outcomes.

  • Publication number: 20110047634
    Abstract: Compositions and methods for the identification, prognosis, classification, diagnosis, and treatment of leukemia or a genetic predisposition to leukemia are provided. The present invention is based on the discovery of a novel intragenic deletion in the v-ets erythroblastosis virus E26 oncogene homolog (ERG) allele which is shown herein to be associated with a novel subtype of B-progenitor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In one embodiment, the intragenic deletion in ERG results in the expression of C-terminal domain deletion forms of the ERG polypeptide which lacks the DNA-binding PNT domain and CAE domain of the ERG polypeptide and have dominant negative ERG activity. In other embodiments, the intragenic deletions results in a loss of expression of the native ERG polypeptide.
