The incidence of AP in children with ALL is low and related to patients' age. The development of AP does not seem to influence p-DFS and p-EFS in children with ALL. Recurrence of AP after re-exposure to asparaginase in patients with ALL and a history of AP is low (4.5%). Re-exposure to asparaginase after the first episode of AP does not improve either p-DFS or p-EFS in children with ALL.
