Note that many of the regimens used to treat this disease are generic to B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia; this page contains regimens that are specific to T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (a.k.a. T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma when primarily nodal-based). Note: certain regimens have been moved to dedicated pages:

Guidelines

Given the rapid change in evidence in many areas of hematology/oncology, readers are encouraged to consider any guideline published 5+ years ago to be for historical purposes, only.

High-risk patients with an HLA sibling-matched donor or a fully matched (10/10) unrelated donor who achieved CR1 were offered allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Preceding treatment

Chemotherapy

Glucocorticoid therapy

Supportive therapy

CNS therapy, prophylaxis
