  • Age ≥ 18 years (male or female).
  • Life expectancy \>3 months.
  • Adequate organ function (i.e., bone marrow, liver, lungs) allowing intensive chemotherapy with MTX.
  • Adequate clinical pathology values:
  • Absolute neutrophil count ≥1.0 x 109/L, hemoglobin ≥9mg/dL (transfusion allowed), platelets ≥100 x 109/L.
