摘要:
A method for determining prognosis in a subject having a hematological cancer comprising: a) determining an expression profile by measuring the gene expression levels of a set of genes selected from a leukemic stem cell (LSC) gene signature marker set or an hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) gene signature marker set, in a sample from a subject and b) classifying the subject as having a good prognosis or a poor prognosis based on the expression profile wherein a good prognosis predicts an increased likelihood of survival within a predetermined period after initial diagnosis and poor prognosis predicts a decreased likelihood of survival within the predetermined period after initial diagnosis.
