International trial in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia
EU CTIS ID: 2024-515499-12-00
What this study is testing

Who can take part
You may be able to join if
- 1. Patients should be enrolled on National ALL protocol prior to enrollment on EsPhALL2017/COGAALL1631. Regardless of initial frontline protocol baseline diagnostic samples must be available to develop an MRD probe. Diagnostic samples will be collected and analyzed according to the procedures of the National front-line protocol.
- 2. > 1 year and < 21 years at ALL diagnosis
- 3. New LLA diagnosis a. type B or T, or mixed phenotypic acute leukemia (MPAL meeting 2016 WHO definition) with definitive evidence of BCR-ABL1 fusion by karyotype, FISH and/or RT-PCR b. type B, with definitive evidence of ABL class fusions identified according to National/Center procedures of each participating country.
- 4. Prior Therapy for BCR-ABL1 fusion patients: a. induction therapy, which includes vincristine, a corticosteroid, usually PEG-L-Asparaginase, with or without anthracycline, and/or other standard cytotoxic chemotherapy. b. Not received more than 14 days of multiagent induction therapy beginning with the first dose of vincristine. c. May have started imatinib prior to study entry but have not received more than 14 days of imatinib.
- 5. Prior Therapy for ABL-class fusion patients: a. must have previously completed the 4 or 5 weeks of multiagent Induction chemotherapy. b. may have started imatinib during Induction IA, at the same time of or after the first vincristine dose.
- 6. Patients must have a performance status corresponding to ECOG scores of 0, 1, or 2.
You likely can't join if
- 1. Known history of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
- 2. ALL developing after a previous cancer treated with cytotoxic chemotherapy.
- 3. Active, uncontrolled infection or active systemic illness that requires ongoing vasopressor support or mechanical ventilation
- 4. Down syndrome
- 5. Pregnancy
- 6. Breast Feeding
