41 children with acute leukemia were treated with Vincristine Sulphate. Total remission was obtained in 17 out of 22 patients (77%) in whom Vincristine was used as the first drug.

19 patients who had been treated previously with other antimitotic drugs and have become resistant to them, received Vincristine: total remission occurred in 7 cases and partial remission in 3 cases within 4-10 weeks of therapy.

A case is reported of a child still surviving three years and seven months from the beginning of the disease and two years and 4 months from completion of therapy with Vincristine.
