Background: To evaluate prognostic effect of submicroscopic deletions involving breakage and fusion points of the derivative chromosome 9 and 22 in chronic myeloid leukemia in untreated patients and their follow up samples to correlate with disease outcome. Methods: The study included 78 pretreatment (PT) samples from CML patients and 90 follow-up samples, classified as complete responders (CR, n=33), nonresponders (NR, n =54), and partial responder (PR, n=3) depending on the treatment status of the follow-up samples. Karyotype analysis was performed on metaphases obtained through short term cultures of bone marrow and blood. Detection of BCR-ABL fusion gene was performed using dual color dual fusion (D-FISH) translocation probes. Results: BCR-ABL fusion gene detection by D-FISH showed ABL-BCR deletion on derivative 9 in 47.8% of nonresponders which was higher as compared to pretreatment (11%). Mix D-FISH signal pattern was found in around 20% of pretreatment and non-responder samples. Average interval from chronic phase to blast crisis and accelerated phase was respectively 3.5 and 18 months and accelerated to blast crisis was 16.5 months from the time of diagnosis. The follow-up duration of 31 patients responded to therapy was significantly higher (p=0.0001) as compared to 45 patients who did not respond to therapy. Variant D-FISH signal pattern was seen at the time of diagnosis in patient who responded to therapy as well as those patients who did not respond to therapy. Conclusion: This is the first study from India reporting deletion in ABL, BCR, or ABL-BCR on derivative 9 did not correlate with response to therapy
