Multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) has emerged as a standard method for quantifying measurable residual disease (MRD) in acute myeloid leukemia. However, the limited number of available channels on conventional flow cytometers requires the division of a diagnostic sample into several tubes, restricting the number of cells and the complexity of immunophenotypes that can be analyzed. Full spectrum flow cytometers overcome this limitation by enabling the simultaneous use of up to 40 fluorescent markers. Here, we used this approach to develop a good laboratory practice-conform single-tube 19-color MRD detection assay that complies with recommendations of the European LeukemiaNet Flow-MRD Working Party. We based our assay on clinically-validated antibody clones and evaluated its performance on an IVDcertified full spectrum flow cytometer. We measured MRD and normal bone marrow samples and compared the MRD data to a widely used reference MRD-MFC panel generating highly concordant results. Using our newly developed single-tube panel, we established reference values in healthy bone marrow for 28 consensus leukemiaassociated immunophenotypes and introduced a semi-automated dimensionalityreduction, clustering and cell type identification approach that aids the unbiased detection of aberrant cells. In summary, we provide a comprehensive full spectrum MRD-MFC workflow with the potential for rapid implementation for routine diagnostics due to reduced cell requirements and ease of data analysis with increased reproducibility in comparison to conventional FlowMRD routines.
