Fig. 2. Immunophenotypic leukemia stem cell (LSC) frequency impacts on outcomes of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Fig. 2

A Oncoprint of commonly occurring myeloid mutations in 88 AML patients. B Bar graph demonstrating distribution of AML patients stratified based on European Leukemia Net (ELN) prognostic risk groups and LSC frequency. The cutoff for high vs low LSC frequency was 0.5% (the median value for entire cohort). C Kaplan–Meier overall and relapse-free survival curves of AML patients stratified based on high (≥0.5%) vs low (<0.5%) LSC frequency at diagnosis. D The frequency of immunophenotypic LSCs (CD45dimSSclowLinCD90CD34+CD38) in consecutive diagnosis and relapse samples of 10 AML patients. Gray lines indicate no statistically significant change, while red lines indicate a significant difference between the two VAFs. E TP53 and FLT3-ITD mutations were significantly more common among patients with high LSC frequency as compared to patients with low LSC frequency at diagnosis. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
