Additional analysis including whole-exome sequencing and RNA sequencing provided some insights on the molecular mechanisms of the relapse: the identification of the fusion transcript KANSL1::ARL17A (KANSARL), a cancer predisposition fusion gene, could justify a condition of genomic instability which may be associated with the onset and/or probably the late relapse of his CML. Here, KANSL1 is linked to chronic myelogenous leukemia, BCR-ABL1 positive.
