- Abstract:
- Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a rare and aggressive malignant disease of the hematopoietic system with great biological diversity, which requires intensive and long-term therapy. Additionally, it only accounts for approximately 20% of acute leukemia cases in the adulthood and patients’ prognosis is, despite considerable progress in therapy, still unsatisfying. To date, there is no comprehensive evaluation of patients diagnosed with ALL, who have been treated at or transferred to the Division of Hematology, Department of Internal Medicine, of the Medical University of Graz. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the outcome of these patients treated from 2001 to 2021 and to compare these real-world data with published cancer registries and studies.
