Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the disease free survival and the overall survival in patients with acute leukemia in first or second complete remission after administrating a CXCR4 antagonist, as a chemo sensitization strategy, plus chemotherapy as the conditioning regimen for autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
