Second remission induction rates for vincristine and prednisone alone (VP) and vincristine, L-asparaginase, and prednisone (VLP) are compared for children with acute lymphocytic leukemia. No evidence of a significant difference between the second induction complete remission rate for VP (78.6%) and

A remission-induction regimen for childhood leukemia using cyclophosphamide, asparaginase, vincristine, and prednisone (CAVP) was compared to standard vincristine-prednisone (VP) induction. The more intensive regimen was associated with a lower complete remission rate (81% vs 93%) and a higher early
## Abstract Eleven patients with acute lymphocytic leukemia in relapse were treated with Lβasparaginase and cytosine arabinoside (1βΞ²βDβarabinofuranosylcytosine) in induction therapy and the same drugs plus cyclophosphamide in maintenance therapy. Three patients had complete remissions lasting 6, 1
## Abstract Between 1971 and 1974, 646 evaluable patients under 20 years of age with previously untreated acute lymphocytic leukemia were treated according to Cancer and Leukemia Group B (formerly Acute Leukemia Group B) Protocol 7111. On a random basis, they received a 10βday course of 1,000 units
