A study of children in relapse with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) previously maintained in remission with combination chemotherapy including cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) was undertaken by Children's Cancer Study Group (CCSG) to assess the efficacy of cyclocytidine (Cyclo-C), a depot Ara-C, co
The Childrens Cancer Study Group conducted four therapeutic studies on a total of 1006 children with acute nonlymphocytic leukemia from 1972 to 1983. This report describes the therapeutic strategies of these studies and examines trends in induction rates and long-term outcome over this period. The r
Amsacrine (AMSA) and cyclocytidine were studied as retrieval therapy in 122 pediatric patients with acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL). Patients either failed to achieve sustained initial remissions or were in relapse. Induction therapy consisted of intravenous (IV) AMSA (75 mg/mz) from days 1 t
A total of 125 children, who were diagnosed as having high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), were treated with two consecutive protocols designated as AL851 (1985( -1988( ) and ALHR88 (1988( -1990)). All patients received induction therapy consisting of vincristine (VCR), prednisolone (PSL),
