Low Dose Daunorubicin in Pediatric Relapsed/Refractory Acute Leukemia

Summary

In this pilot study, eligible pediatric patients will be treated with 5 consecutive days of low dose daunorubicin. All patients who receive low dose daunorubicin will be evaluated daily for potential toxicity during those 5 days. Once the patient has received 5 doses of daunorubicin, subsequent therapy will be at the discretion of the primary oncology team.
