The TRUPCR® Paediatric Leukemia Panel Kit is a CE-IVD certified, real-time PCR-based diagnostic assay designed for the qualitative detection of 18 key fusion gene markers across 38 transcript variants associated with paediatric leukemia, including both acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and select cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This panel enables rapid and sensitive molecular characterization using cDNA synthesized from RNA extracted from peripheral blood or bone marrow samples.
Markers detected include clinically significant fusion events such as TEL-AML1, BCR-ABL1 (p190, p210, p230), E2A-PBX1, MLL rearrangements, PAX5-JAK2, and CRLF2 fusions, offering essential insights for diagnosis, prognosis, and risk stratification in pediatric cases. With a sensitivity of detecting as few as 10 copies of fusion transcripts, this kit provides dependable early detection and is ideal for clinical decision-making and disease classification.
The kit contains all necessary reagents for both cDNA synthesis and real-time PCR, ensuring minimal hands-on time and workflow integration. It is fully compatible with leading real-time PCR systems, making it a reliable and cost-effective choice for routine use in clinical molecular diagnostics for pediatric hematologic malignancies.
The TRUPCR® Paediatric Leukemia Panel Kit is a CE-IVD certified, real-time RT-PCR assay developed for the qualitative detection of 18 diagnostic fusion gene markers and 38 transcript variants commonly associated with pediatric leukemia, including both acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and subsets of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This multi-target panel enables precise molecular characterization of leukemic subtypes using cDNA generated from extracted RNA.
The assay supports accurate fusion transcript detection for critical gene rearrangements such as TEL-AML1, BCR-ABL1, MLL fusions, E2A-PBX1, and PAX5-JAK2, aiding in diagnostic confirmation, risk stratification, and therapeutic decision-making. The inclusion of the ABL1 gene as an endogenous internal control ensures sample quality validation and test integrity.
Pediatric leukemia is the most common type of cancer in children, accounting for approximately 30% of all childhood malignancies. It primarily manifests as acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or less frequently as acute myeloid leukemia (AML). These are clonal hematologic disorders characterized by the accumulation of immature lymphoid or myeloid cells due to disruptions in normal hematopoiesis.
At the molecular level, pediatric leukemias are driven by a variety of chromosomal rearrangements and gene fusions that alter transcriptional regulation, signal transduction, or differentiation pathways. Many of these fusions serve as key diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic markers.
Accurate identification of these fusion transcripts is critical for confirming diagnosis, guiding treatment (e.g., TKI therapy in BCR-ABL1-positive cases), and determining risk groups for therapy intensification or de-escalation.
