Abstract
SummaryThe initial results from the Children's Cancer Study Group (CCSG) study on vindesine are the subject of this report. Vindesine was shown to be active in the treatment of acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in children in a phase-II clinical trial conducted by the CCSG. A phase-III trial is now in progress. The aim of this is to compare the use of vincristine and of vindesine with reference to induction rate, toxicity, and cross-resistance.
