Randomised Phase III Trial of Effectivity and Safety of Rasburicase Compared With Allopurinol for Treatment of Hyperuricemia in Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia or High-Grade NHL With High Risk of Tumorlysis Syndrome (> 15 Yrs)
In this study the efficacy and tolerability of two approaches to treat and prevent hyperuricemia is tested in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia or high-grade lymphoma with high risk of tumor lysis syndrome. Both arms are compared by randomisation. In one arm patients receive during pre-phase chemotherapy conventional prophylaxis with allopurinol whereas in the other arm Rasburicase is used.
