The table is based on 57 patients without allergy to Erwinia asparaginase. The 2 patients with clinical allergy to Erwinia asparaginase were removed from this group. The table shows the data of the period week 6 to week 30 of Erwinia asparaginase therapy of 142 samples of 38 patients who continued infusions 3 times per week after the first 2 weeks of Erwinia asparaginase therapy and the data of 71 samples of 19 patients who were switched to infusions 2 times per week after the first 2 weeks of therapy. h, hour.

*

For first 2 weeks of Erwinia asparaginase therapy, n = 231 samples; for week 6 to week 30 of Erwinia asparaginase therapy, n = 213 samples.

Number of patients with all samples above 20 U/L, 50 U/L, or 100 U/L.
