Abstract
Despite intensification of therapy, 20% of children with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) relapse (Ceppi et al, 2015). The different response to chemotherapy may be partially explained by inherited genetic variants, e.g. single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and copy number variants (CNVs). However, clinically useful genetic predictors of ALL treatment response are yet to be identified.
