In a separate study, Kawamata et al. [28] studied 399 pediatric ALL samples with matched remission marrow using Affymetrix 50K SNP arrays, and identified three most common genetic alterations: deletion of ETV6, deletion of CDKN2A/p16INK4A, and hyperdiploidy. This evidence concerns the gene CDKN2A and acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
