Agents in Development for Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Abstract

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in childhood. Standard chemotherapy has afforded outstanding outcomes for many patients; however, there remain some sub-groups with high-risk features, refractory disease, and patients that relapse who have a poor prognosis with conventional treatments. Over the past decade, there have been significant advances in newer treatment options, including improved monoclonal antibody therapies, T cell engagers, and chimeric antigen T-cell receptor products, all of which have changed the landscape for patients who relapse. These are now being introduced more frequently and at earlier stages of therapy. We present a brief overview of the biology and etiology of childhood ALL, treatment strategies currently in use, and discuss some newer strategies and their possible role in the future of ALL therapy for children.
