Melania Abreu González, MD/MS 
Clinical Geneticist & Co-Founder, Genos Médica (Mexico) 

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common leukemia in adults across Western countries, but its incidence in Latin America is 3–5× lower, with some of the lowest rates observed in regions with high Amerindian ancestry. In Mexico, CLL represents only 7% of leukemia cases in Mestizo populations, making comprehensive molecular insights rare and highly valuable. 

In this focused on-demand session, Dr. Abreu shares new learnings from targeted NGS analysis in the low-prevalence Mexican population and discusses how modern tools can reshape CLL assessment, stratification, and accelerate decision-making. 

What You’ll Learn 

  • CLL’s molecular and clinical heterogeneity 
    Why predicting outcomes remains challenging and how genetic alterations shape prognosis and therapy. 
  • The value of NGS for CLL analysis 
    Consolidated detection of SNVs, Indels, CNVs, and IGHV status; improved visibility of clonal populations; and enhanced cost efficiency with batch processing; seamless integration with IgCaller for immunoglobulin rearrangement characterization. 
  • Practical workflow advantages 
    How a single, scalable NGS application can: 
    – Improve efficiency 
    – Support earlier risk stratification 
    – Maintain high-quality variant characterization while reducing overall costs 

Why Watch? 

Get clear, real-world guidance on optimizing CLL workflows and generating meaningful insights in populations where data is limited.
