All-trans retinoic acid and short-time, high-dose cytarabine in two children with acute promyelocytic leukemia.
We report on two girls, 3 and 13 years old, with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) who were successfully treated with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) 45 mg/m2/day. "Retinoic acid syndrome" was prevented with short-time treatment of high dose (4 x 1.5 g/m2) cytarabine. This regimen was well tolerated, although both children were critically ill. They achieved a complete remission confirmed by light microscopy, but reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction remained positive after ATRA, underlining the need of further chemotherapy.
