Abstract CT137: Biomarkers of response to leukemia stem cell targeted therapy with low dose daunorubicin in relapsed/refractory acute leukemia

Patients with acute leukemia harbor chemotherapy-resistant leukemia stem cells (LSC) which ultimately lead to disease relapse in many patients. Clinical trial design of LSC targeted therapy is a challenge. The majority of leukemia cells are differentiated leukemia cells, with LSC comprising Citation Format: Tara L. Lin, John M.
