In the article pre-published online and in the March 2024 issue of Haematologica,1 we have to correct that:
- Since the percentage minimal residual disease for patient 8 was 0.0100 at the first induction timepoint (day 28), the polymerase chain reaction minimal residual disease result should be “positive” instead of “negative” (Page 5, Table 1, P8, Column 6). In the main text on Page 5 the sentence “Three of these samples were positive by gDNA-PCR but below the threshold of 0.1% (Table 1)” should be replaced by “All of these samples were positive by gDNA-PCR but below the threshold of 0.1% (Table 1).”
- In Table 2, the numbers in column 3 (PCRpos/FCMpos) apply to column 4 (PCRneg/FCMneg) and vice versa.
- No threshold was applied for the results shown in Figure 5, as described correctly in the main text (Page 8). Figure 5 itself contained an error, stating that a cut-off of 0.1% was used. The corrected Table 1, Table 2 and Figure 5 are shown below.
The authors apologize for the errors and state that these do not change any scientific conclusions or interpretations of the data.
