Context: Treatment of Relapsed Childhood ALL / Standard Treatment Options for First Bone Marrow Relapse of Childhood ALL / Postreinduction therapy for patients achieving a second complete remission

For patients with T-ALL who achieve remission after bone marrow relapse, outcomes with postreinduction chemotherapy alone have generally been poor,[5] and these patients are usually treated with allogeneic HSCT in second CR, regardless of time to relapse. At 3 years, the OS rate after allogeneic transplant for T-ALL in second remission was reported to be 48%, and the DFS rate was 46%.[74][Level of evidence C1]
