Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of copies of PRAME (Preferentially expressed in melanoma)antigen expression in bone marrowAt Day 0

Establishment of the range of PRAME transcript levels in a collection of bone marrow samples by real-time quantitative RT-PCR (Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction). Due to the low numbers, they were expressed as \[value x 10E-03\]. Only the samples with gene expression \>0 were presented.

Number of copies of Wilms' Tumor 1 (WT1) antigen expression in bone marrowAt Day 0

Establishment of the range of WT1 transcript levels in a collection of bone marrow samples by real-time quantitative RT-PCR (Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction). Due to the low numbers, they were expressed as \[value x 10E-03\]. Only the samples with gene expression \>0 were presented.
