A six year old Chinese boy with relapsed Acute Promyelocytic Leukaemia (APML) failed to respond to reinduction with Daunorubicin and Cytarabine infusion. He was successfully treated with all trans-Retinoic Acid (45 mg/m2/day) orally. After four weeks of treatment, he was in complete remission. The side effects of all trans-Retinoic Acid were negligible.
