Brief summary
The present study aims at verifying the state of the art in what this illness concerns and at organizing a centralized samples analysis.
Detailed description
The present trial is a prospective multicentric GIMEMA study, in which adult ALL patients are extensively analyzed at diagnosis by a multiparametric approach including CC and molecular analysis for the following gene rearrangements: BCR-ABL, MLL-AF4, E2A-PBX1, TEL-AML1, MLL, p15 and p16 deletion in order to give place to a carefully characterization of the genetic lesions occurring in adult ALL and to evaluate their prognostic significance in a large cohort of patients homogeneously treated. This study requires a central handling and analysis of bone marrow (BM) or peripheral blood samples at presentation.
