Abstract

Each year, almost 3500 children are diagnosed with leukemia, representing approximately 30% of pediatric cancer cases. Acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common form of pediatric leukemia, accounting for approximately 80% of cases. A significant number of children fail to respond to existing chemotherapies or are unable to maintain remission. Their prognosis is poor, with little hope for long-term survival.

摘要

每年，近3500名儿童被诊断出患有白血病，约占儿童癌症病例的30%。急性淋巴细胞白血病是儿童白血病最常见的形式，约占病例的80%。相当数量的儿童对现有化疗无反应或无法维持缓解状态。他们的预后很差，长期生存的希望渺茫。
