697 | 4.2% | 1.6% |
CEM-C7 | 85.8% | 22.2% |
CEM-C1 | 92.9% | 95.3% |
IM-9 | 99.1% | 98.4% |

**TALL2 | - | 34.9% |
**TALL3 | - | 10.2% |
**TALL4 | - | 18.2% |
Leukemic Cell Survival was calculated as described in Materials and Methods
To insure a clear result, instead of analyzing the LCS after 48 hours of Dex-treatment of the patient samples (as was done initially), it was decided to use 72 hours of treatment to assay sensitivity to steroid-mediated cell death.
