Human samples from Leukemia patients were collected from November 16, 2024, to January 1, 2025. The age range of the patients was 8 months to 80 years. The RT-qPCR method was used to detect Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 in all samples; the results showed Twenty-five positive cases for Human T-cell Leukemia Virus Type 1 . The population groups studied were divided into five age groups: 18-27, 28-37, 38-47, 48-57, and 58-67 years. The first group (18-27) had the highest number of infected cases at 56%, compared to the age group (28-37 at 12%, 38-47 at 8%, 48-57 at 14%, and the age group 58-67 at 8%). The samples were collected from Hospital, Middle Euphrates Cancer Center in Najaf province.
