Adult Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia: Biology and Treatment (Contemporary Hematology) - November 2010 Edition
The current explosion of new areas of controversy in the treatment of
acute lymphocytic
leukemia in adults and young adults makes this
comprehensive book a much needed reference for hematologists and
oncologists. This book assembles leading authorities
from around the
globe to cover the full spectrum of ALL subtypes and their treatments.
Specific topics of
discussion include indications for allogeneic bone marrow
transplant in first complete remission, the role of
minimal residual
disease in making treatment decisions, the treatment of young adults,
and the treatment of Philadelphia chromosome positive ALL with the
advent of the
tyrosine kinase inhibitors. This is the first book to
focus exclusively on the adult ALL patient. It provides a complete
overview of diagnosis, molecular pathogenesis, evaluation, and treatment
for this important
patient population
