In vitro chemosensitivity testing in acute non lymphocytic leukemia using the bioluminescence ATP assay

The ATP assay is a short term in vitro chemosensitivity assay where the amount of viable cells are determined by their content of ATP. The aim of the study was to compare the in vitro results of six cytostatic drugs to the clinical outcome in 83 acute non-lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) patients. The se...

Zusammenfassung:The ATP assay is a short term in vitro chemosensitivity assay where the amount of viable cells are determined by their content of ATP. The aim of the study was to compare the in vitro results of six cytostatic drugs to the clinical outcome in 83 acute non-lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL) patients. The secondary ANLL at diagnosis showed an in vitro resistance to daunorubicin that was significantly higher compared to de novo ANLL at diagnosis ( P
