Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- \. Patients with acute leukemia (myeloid or lymphoblastic) who do not receive the standard chemotherapy regimens for treatment; because of the following reasons:
- age \> 65
- existence of another illness, such as heart failure (EF\> 40)
- \. Ferritin \< 500 μg / l
