Influences of Genetic Abnormality on the Risk of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Recent studies have provided evidence that common genetic variations could account for a proportion of leukemia in adult or children. To evaluate the contribution of candidate gene association studies to the understanding of genetic susceptibility to acute lymphoblastic leukemia we conducted a systematic review from published studies. The polymorphisms of genes encoding carcinogen-metabolizi...
متن کاملTherapy-related acute leukemia associated with involvement of 11q23 after high grade non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

The traditional risk factors that influence selection of therapy primarily include characteristics of the host, such as age, and features of the disease, such as lineage (T-lymphoblastic, B-lymphoblastic, or Burkitt-type [mature B-cell]...
متن کاملTherapy of acute lymphoblastic leukemia in childhood.
By Alvin M. Mauer I T IS TRULY gratifying to review the progress that has been made in the therapy of the acute leukemias since the introduction of aminopterin by Farber and coworkers’ in the late I 940s. This progress can be measured by the increasing proportion of patients who have achieved complete remission, the increasing duration of their survival, and the increasing evidence that for som...
متن کاملModern therapy of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Although acute lymphoblastic leukemia is curable in one third of adult patients, results vary greatly on account of different clinical, immunologic, and cytogenetic/genetic characteristics. These data, along with the kinetics of response to early treatment, help establish the individual risk class with considerable accuracy, and support risk-specific treatments that should warrant optimal resul...
