Overall Comparison of ddPCR Versus RQ-PCR MRD Results by All IG/TR Markers (1.5 μg DNA Was Used in Both).
| ddPCR | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| RQ-PCR | POS-Q (%) | POS-NQ (%) | NEG (%) | Total (%) |
| POS-NQ | 21 (20) | 25 (23.8) | 59 (56.2) | 105 (100) |
| NEG | 5 (1.7) | 34 (11.6) | 253 (86.7) | 292 (100) |
| Total | 26 (6.5) | 59 (14.9) | 312 (78.6) | 397 (100) |
Concordant values between ddPCR and RQ-PCR are indicated in bold.
ddPCR = droplet digital polymerase chain reaction; IG = immunoglobulin; MRD = minimal residual disease; NEG = negative; POS-NQ = positive not-quantifiable; POS-Q = positive quantifiable; RQ-PCR = real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction; TR = T-cell receptor.
