摘要

Adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is an uncommon hematologic malignancy with high relapse and mortality rate. This study aimed to describe characteristics and outcomes of Thai ALL patients, and to determine the differences between adolescent and young adult (AYA) and adult ALL. ALL patients aged > 15 years were prospectively enrolled from 2015 to 2017. AYA patients were defined as age <= 39 years.
