Abstract
The purpose of evaluating prognostic factors in acute lymphoblastic leukemia is, first, to stratify patients into adverse- or good-risk groups, second, to determine different treatment options accordingly and, third, to evaluate their potential outcome. Prognostic factors are particularly relevant for disease-free survival and overall survival.Entities:
