Novel stochastic model reveals limitations in quantifying small hematopoietic stem cell clones, highlighting significant measurement challenges.

Slowly expanding clones exhibit significant challenges in detection and monitoring.
Intrinsic stochastic fluctuations dominate early-stage clonal competition, especially for low-abundance clones.
Increased proliferative activity, possibly due to chronic inflammation, accelerates expansion of pre-malignant clones.
Short-term analyses may misrepresent clonal behavior, emphasizing the need for extended follow-up.

Wagner et al. (2025) studied this question.
