NOVEL RECURRENT CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATIONS DETECTED IN CLONAL PLASMA CELLS OF LIGHT CHAIN AMYLOIDOSIS PATIENTS SHOW POTENTIAL ADVERSE PROGNOSTIC EFFECT: FIRST RESULTS FROM A GENOME-WIDE COPY NUMBER ARRAY ANALYSIS

Novel recurrent chromosomal aberrations detected in clonal plasma cells of light chain amyloidosis patients show potential adverse prognostic effect: first results from a genome-wide copy number array analysis

Immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a rare plasma cell dyscrasia characterized by the deposition of abnormal amyloid fibrils in multiple organs, thus impairing their function.In the largest cohort studied up to now of 118 CD138-purified plasma cell samples from previously untreated immunoglobulin light chain amyloidosis patients, we asse
