Time points for MRD monitoring in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia?

Hi,

What are the ideal time points for MRD monitoring in ALL to predict relapse. I know they all have a significance but I presume day 33(+/-5) and third month will be the most relevant prognostically. Would appreciate your inputs. Thanks.
