Popis Minimal residual disease (MRD) detection is a well defined prognostic tool for response evaluation in hematological malignancies. Real time quantitative PCR (RQ-PCR) has become the settled and standardized method for MRD assessment in lymphoid disorders (van der Velden et al., Leukemia 2007). However, RQ-PCR based MRD detection relies on a relative quantification approach, since it requires a reference standard curve and an appropriate housekeeping gene for the normalization. Droplet Digital PCR (DD-PCR), applying the principle of limiting dilution of DNA and single molecule detection, allows reliable absolute tumor burden quantification at molecular level. In this study we performed a comparison of immunoglobulin heavy chain gene based MRD detection (IgH-MRD) performed by RQ-PCR and DD-PCR, to assess whether DD-PCR could overcome some RQ-PCR limitation and achieve superior sensitivity, robustness and accuracy.
