Study Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which regimen of chemotherapy is more effective for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing four regimens of combination chemotherapy to see how well they work in treating children with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Primary Outcome

The overall plan is to accrue for 3.1 years or until all accrual goals have been met, whichever occurs first. Since power is determined by event-rates, lower or higher than expected event rates could lead to an amendment to alter the accrual goal. This consideration will be made independent of arm-specific outcome, in order to eliminate bias

Interventions

  • DRUG cyclophosphamide
  • DRUG dexamethasone
  • DRUG leucovorin calcium
