pubmed:abstractText |
Oral fludarabine is the first oral formulation of a purine analogue available for clinical use which has produced encouraging results in patients with B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). It has a similar tolerability profile to that of the intravenous formulation. Acute tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) induced by fludarabine appears to be a fairly unusual complication during the treatment of CLL.
