Ordering of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) events in patients with 9p LOH, 17p LOH, or both

Patients with an order^*	No. with order
17p before 9p	1/21 (5%)
9p before 17p	11/21 (52%)
9p and 17p together	9/21 (43%)
Other patients with 9p LOH and/or 17p LOH
9p and 17p in mutually exclusive clones	4 patients
Either 9p LOH or 17p LOH but not both	19 patients

Of 44 patients with 9p LOH, 17p LOH, or both, an order could be determined in 21 patients who had clones with both 9p LOH and 17p LOH detected in the same DNA sample.
