Is there a cure for acute lymphocytic leukemia?
There is.
And in fact, it's an incredibly exciting time.
And ALL in that we do have high cure rates in a lot of our population.
So ALL is the most common childhood cancer.
It is
an incredibly devastating disease.
And the most common time to be diagnosed is under the age of six.
And so there has been a lot of research in this area.
And the children's group has now shows cure rates of 80
to 90% of children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
As we get older, there is less access,
but we are rapidly trying to improve so in our adolescent and young adult.
So that's from 15 to 39.
Our cure rates are now 60 to 70%.
And as we get to the older adults, the cure rate drops a little bit.
Having said that, we have a lot of new and exciting technologies
that are just coming on and we're trying to get them
brought to Frontline as quick as possible.
