Over the past 60 years, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital has developed 17 treatment protocols for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with the goal of finding the most effective and least toxic treatment. These protocols include preventive therapy, risk stratification, and a variety of treatments such as pharmacological agents and irradiation therapy.
