Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Various drugs have been added to different treatment regimens in order to improve the response rate in patients with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, however, it has been shown that adding Bortezomib to the relapsing regimen improves the proportion of second complete remissions without increasing chemotherapy toxicity. Therefore, proteasome inhibitors can drastically modify the prognosis of patients, since their synergy with drugs such as steroids has positioned them as an attractive strategy.
