It is known that the agents used in cancer treatment increase apoptosis and cause cell death. In this study, the importance of G-248A nucleotide polymorphism affecting the BAX gene expression and apoptosis in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was investigated in the risk classification and the evaluation of the treatment response. METHODS: Apoptosis index was performed by Annexin VFITC kit for bone marrow aspiration samples of 25 newly-diagnosed (0-11) years old ALL patients on 0th, 3rd and 8th day. Bax gene polymorphism was studied on blood samples of 60 ALL patients and 96 healthy control group, and DNA isolation was studied by FUJİ QuickGene 810 automatic nucleic acid purification system. RESULTS: The mean age of the patients was 4.9, and %28 had a standard risk, %44 had a moderate risk, %28 had high risk. A significant difference and a positive correlation were found between the spontaneous apoptosis index (AI) and the 3rd day AI (18.3±13.7, 19.4±12.7 p= 0,007 r= +0.548). The 8th day AI was found to be significantly higher in patients with poor early steroid response (p<0.05). Apoptosis index; was significantly high on 0th, 3rd and 8th day for PreB ALL cases. 84% of the patients were found to have CD 10 positivity and in
