Abstract

Since Rubidomycin or Daunomycin has been used in the treatment of acute leukemias its effectiveness and toxicity have been differently evaluated. It might be profitable to point out a few conclusions drawn from therapeutic trials carried out by the Leukemia Group of E.O.R.T.C. and by Mathe’s group.
