In CLL, specific functional alterations have been described in circulating CD8+ T cells, yet a global view of the CD8+ T cell compartment phenotype and of its real impact on disease progression is presently elusive. We developed a multidimensional statistical analysis of CD8+ T cell phenotypic marker expression based on whole blood multi-color flow-cytometry. The analysis comprises both unsupervised statistics (hClust and PCA) and supervised classification methods (Random forest, Adaboost algorithm, Decision tree learning and logistic regression) and allows to cluster patients by comparing multiple phenotypic markers expressed by CD8+ T cells %K CD8+ T cells %K multidimensional phenotyping %K chronic lymphocytic leukemia %K phenotypic signature %K supervised learning %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6422371/
