ASH 2023 | The role of Erwinia asparaginase in the treatment of ALL

Leiah Brigitha, Princess Máxima Center for Pediatric Oncology, Utrecht, The Netherlands, briefly discusses the role of Erwinia asparaginase in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). PEG-asparaginase is commonly used in first-line ALL treatment as it is more convenient due to a lower frequency of administration, however Erwinia asparaginase is a good alternative in these patients if PEG-asparaginase treatment must be discontinued or is not available for any reason. This interview took place at the 65th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition, held in San Diego, CA.
