Therapy for acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) has been less successful in adults than in children. Many centers treat all adult leukemia with the same regimen. We have used vincristine and prednisone for initial therapy in 14 adults with ALL since 1971 and have followed a treatment regimen developed

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
