The molecular characterization of 2856 samples (1631 derived from the NGS–AML project; NCT03311815) with standardized NGS of consensus genes (ABL1, ASXL1, BRAF, CALR, CBL, CEBPA, CSF3R, DNMT3A, ETV6, EZH2, FLT3, GATA2, HRAS, IDH1, IDH2, JAK2, KIT, KRAS, MPL, NPM1, NRAS, PTPN11, RUNX1, SETBP1, SF3B1, SRSF2, TET2, TP53, U2AF1 and WT1) showed 97% of patients having at least one mutation. The gene discussed is MPL; the disease is acute myeloid leukemia.
