Personalized
therapy of chronic lymphocytic leukemia:
Valuation of drug treatment efficacy of chronic lymphocytic leukemia
patient’s before treatment by leukemic cells exposition to anticancer
agent(s) used in hematooncology as anticancer drugs, i.e. purine analogs:
cladribine (2-chloro-2-deoxyadenosine; 2-CdA; C), fludarabine (9-β-D-arabinosyl-2-fluoroadenine
phosphate; F) in combination with alkylating agent – mafosfamide (active
form of cyclophosphamide) (CM, FM), as well as CM combined with monoclonal
antibody – rituximab (RCM).
