The Number Of Peg-Asparaginase Doses Administered Is a Determinant Of Relapse Risk In Adult ALL Treated With a Pediatric-Like Regimen

TL;DR: In adult patients with ALL who had remained in first remission throughout the entire induction and consolidations period of a pediatric-like regimen, less prior exposure to PEG-ASN was associated with increased late relapse risk after starting maintenance therapy, and results support the importance of ASN treatment in adult ALL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Venetoclax-containing regimens in acute myeloid leukemia.

TL;DR: Venetoclax in combination with hypomethylating agents (HMAs) or low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) has demonstrated exceptional activity in elderly and unfit patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) as mentioned in this paper.
