## Abstract Significant progress in understanding the mechanisms leading to the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has led to the identification of numerous molecular abnormalities that may be responsible for leukemogenesis. Over the same period, large trials have established standard regi

## Abstract Tandem duplication (TD) of the __MLL__ or __FLT3__ gene in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has been reported. We examined whether TD of these two genes occurs simultaneously. We analyzed 13 AML and 2 myelodysplastic syndrome patients, including 6 adult patients with trisomy 11 and 9 pediat
## Abstract Gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) is a chemotherapeutic agent that consists of a humanized antiβCD33 antibody (hP67.6) linked to NβacetylβΞ³ calicheamicin 1,2βdimethyl hydrazine dichloride, a potent enediyne antitumor antibiotic. GO was approved conditionally by the Federal Drug Administration
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Recently, an internal tandem duplication of the __FLT3__ gene (__FLT3__/ITD) was found in approximately 20% of adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases and associated with a poor outcome. However, there are few studies on __FLT3__/ITD in childhood AML, and the clinical si
## Abstract FMSβlike tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is an independent poor prognostic marker of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and strategies that specifically target FLT3 are therefore of substantial interest. However, previous studies with FLT3 inhibitors as single agents in patients with AML showed few
