Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>- to estimate the population-based frequency of transient leukemia in children<br /><br>with Down syndrome<br /><br>- to describe the percentage of children with TL who develop later on leukemia,<br /><br>and whether treatment is able to reduce this progression to leukemia<br /><br>- to compare minimal residual disease data obtained with flowcytometry and PCR<br /><br>- to describe the number of children being GATA1-PCR negative at the end of<br /><br>week 12</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>- to study whether children with DS who later develop ALl had a a detectable<br /><br>pre-leukemic clone in their neonatal blood sample<br /><br>- to study genetic aberrations involved in the progression from TMD to DS ML<br /><br>- to study whether DS ML can occur in children without TMD<br /><br>- to describe the clinical and hematological variables of children with and<br /><br>without TMD</p><br>
