We explored the influence on prognostic impact of the two compartments of WBC-MRD: (1) the AML part of the total primitive/progenitor (CD34+, CD117+, CD133+) compartment (primitive marker MRD; PM-MRD) and (2) the total progenitor compartment (as % of WBC, PM%). Here, PROM1 is linked to acute myeloid leukemia.
