Abstract
In this retrospective, multicenter study, we evaluated the real-life outcomes of adult Philadelphia-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. The best results in terms of survival are achieved in patients who were treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors during induction and received allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation as part of consolidation.
