Description

Daniel Martínez Anaya and co-authors profile the genetics of childhood B-cell leukemia in 73 Mexican children. This cancer's mutation map was well charted elsewhere but not in Mexico. The team used a custom gene panel, chromosome microarrays and fusion tests. They graded each variant by clinical weight.

Sharp variants sorted many cases into named subtypes. The unclassified group shrank from 63 to 37 percent. About 37 percent of children carried variants tied to worse outlooks. These children did show higher-risk traits and lower event-free survival. Other variants pointed to drugs that target two growth pathways. One in ten children carried a likely inherited cancer-risk variant. The authors stress testing germline genes too.
