Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Early intervention in children and adolescents who experience delayed MTX-clearance and renal dysfunction in ALL treatments with the enzyme Glucarpidase which rapidly hydrolyses MTX to non-toxic metabolites to avoid life threatening complications.

- Number of Participants With Adverse Event to HD-MTX Treatment in NOPHO ALL-2008 as a Measure of Toxic Mtx Concentrations in Blood, Nephrotoxicity, Hepatotoxicity, Mucositis, MTX Elimination Time and Permanent Kidney Damage.
- timeFrame
- 6 years 6 months
- description
- Glucarpidase was used in case of predefined toxic MTX values at defined time points and/or in combination with decreased renal function. A total of 47 patients of the 1286 ALL-patients included in the protocol (3.7 %) were treated with Glucarpidase.
