Uta Dirksen: Game-Changing Trial in Pediatric Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Uta Dirksen, SIOPE President and Acting Director of Pediatrics III at the University of Duisburg-Essen, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, adding:

“Inotuzumab ozogamicin is highly active as a reinduction and bridge to HSCT in children with high risk first B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia relapse.

Happy to share the article. Grateful for the chance to participate in this game changing trial.

Novel therapies can turn the page in pediatric cancers.

We need equal access to novel therapies for all children with cancer.

We need more clinical trials in Europe.”
