Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The main purpose of the project is to evaluate the disease free survival and overall survival in patients diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) adding gemcitabine to the standard institutional conditioning regimen based on two alkylating drugs, reduced busulfan and cyclophosphamide (reduced BUCY 2).
