Association between single nucleotide polymorphism-genotype and outcome of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia in a randomized chemotherapy trial.

abstract：:Post-transfusion hepatitis (PTH) is a major problem in patients with acute leukemias requiring blood products during induction or consolidation therapy. In fact, PTH causes delays of chemotherapy with major violations in the timing of protocols. In order to assess the efficacy and safety of a short course of alpha-int...
