5. Figure 4
Comparative CGAT in patient number 1. The top blue bar represents the pre-HCT CGAT copy number aberration data. The expanded excerpt from the top bar shows del 20q in the pre-HCT sample. The bottom blue bar represents the post-HCT relapse CGAT copy number aberration data, showing a new monosomy 7 with persistence of the del 20q. This Figure is available in color online at

6. Figure 5
(A) Comparative CGAT in patient number 2. The top blue bar represents the pre-HCT CGAT copy number aberration data, which show a normal female genome. The bottom blue bar represents the post-HCT relapse CGAT copy number aberration data, showing new chromosomal aberrations with deletions of chromosomes 2q and 6q (red arrow), as well as a gain/deletion in 9q (green arrow). (B) Diagram outlining the complex clinical history of patient 2 from her initial diagnosis of AML to her death. (C) The green dotted lines are the SNP allele tracks; in a healthy heterozygous person there would be 3 lines, however, in the relapse sample from patient 2 there are 5 lines, which are nearly equally distributed, representing a chimeric ratio of 40% to 60%. The 4-line tracks on the right represent a segmental deletion of chromosome 2. This Figure is available in color online at

7. Figure 6
(A) Comparative CGAT in patient number 3. The top blue bar represents the pre-HCT CGAT copy number aberration data, which show a normal male genome. The bottom blue bar represents the post-HCT relapse CGAT copy number aberration data, showing new chromosomal aberrations with a partial deletion of chromosome 15q (red arrow). (B) Detailed view of chromosome 15, with the red bar depicting the segmental deletion seen in the post-HCT CGAT data (pink, bottom lines) in comparison with the pre-HCT CGAT data (blue, top lines).
