Notes

This entity was authored 2026-04-26 to fix a broken reference from ind_b_all_1l_ph_neg.yaml (excluded BIO-BCR-ABL1 to define Ph-negative B-ALL inclusion), per the `docs/BIOMARKER_CATALOG.md` audit. Sourced to ELN/ESMO CML guidelines which establish the BCR-ABL1 detection methodology + IS% reporting standard. Follow-up clinical-content work (separate PRs): - Author SRC-NCCN-ALL-2025 (currently no ALL-specific source in KB). - Author CML 1L Indications (currently no CML disease entity). - Wire Ph-positive B-ALL TKI regimens (imatinib / dasatinib / ponatinib + chemo / blinatumomab combos).
