Thus, we retrospectively analyzed 104 newly diagnosed AML patients, consecutively treated and monitored by quantitative polymerase chain reactions (Q‐PCR) on WT1 and by multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC) on leukemia‐associated immunophenotypes (LAIPs) at baseline, after induction, after 1st consolidation and after 1st intensification. This evidence concerns the gene WT1 and acute myeloid leukemia.
