Prognostic value of minimal residual disease in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in childhood

TL;DR: Monitoring patients with childhood ALL at consecutive time points gives clinically relevant insight into the effectiveness of treatment, and combined information on MRD from the first 3 months of treatment distinguishes patients with good prognoses from those with poor prognose, and this helps in decisions whether and how to modify treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved outcome in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia despite reduced use of anthracyclines and cranial radiotherapy: results of trial ALL-BFM 90. German-Austrian-Swiss ALL-BFM Study Group.

TL;DR: The overall improvement over the results in ALL-BFM 86 (6-year EFS, 72%; P =. 001) was based on fewer recurrences among patients in the MRG with B-cell-precursor ALL, indicating an advantage of more condensed induction therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term results of four consecutive trials in childhood ALL performed by the ALL-BFM study group from 1981 to 1995. Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster.

TL;DR: While it has proven so far to be impossible to improve the outcome for the small group of high risk patients, the number of recurrences could be effectively reduced for the large group of patients responding adequately to the prednisone in vivo sensitivity test.
