Acute monoblastic leukemia in infancy and early childhood: successful
treatment with an epipodophyllotoxin
LF Odom and EM Gordon
Four of five infants and young children with acute monoblastic leukemia, a
disease that heretofore has been highly refractory to therapy, were
successfully treated with sequential infusions of a podophyllin derivative
employed as a single agent over a protracted period of time. In three of
the five children, monocytic leukemia cutis was present at birth. Treatment
was begun in two of them when the disease had progressed to systemic
involvement at a few months of age, and in the third when disease was still
localized. The other two children were 11 and 18 months of age at initial
presentation with widespread disease. Four children are off therapy 11
months, 26 months, 5 years, and 6 years, respectively.
