โœฆ Synopsis

for socio-economic factors and the improvement in outcomes in the recent era may reflect better characterization of leukemia and therapy assignment [4,5]. There remains a need for a large-scale assessment of pharmacogenetic polymorphism that might influence outcome of therapy, and such a study is underway in the Children's Oncology Group.
