Levocarnitine for pegaspargase‐induced hepatotoxicity in older children and young adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Abstract

This real-world data on levocarnitine supplementation during ALL induction highlights the risk of PEG-ASP-associated hepatotoxicity in obese and AYA patients, and hepatotoxicity's potential impact on survival. Levocarnitine supplementation may be protective, but prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings.
