Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate if intramuscular PEG-asparaginase administered either at six or two week intervals from day 92 until 8 months from diagnosis for patients with non-HR ALL will result in equal probability of Event Free Survival

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

20% of children with ALL still fails to be cured. The ALL-2008 protocol is a treatment and research protocol that aims to improve the overall outcome of Nordic children and adolescents with ALL in comparison with the ALL-2000 protocol and previous NOPHO protocols.

The specific and primary objectives of the randomised study is:

To test if intramuscular PEG-asparaginase administered either at six or two week intervals from day 92 until 8 months from diagnosis for patients with non-HR ALL will result in equal probability of EFS. As secondary endpoints asparaginase antibody production and toxicity including allergic reactions in the treatment-arms will be analysed

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

PEG-asparaginase 6 weeks intervals

PEG-asparaginase (1.000 IU/m2/dose) given at six weeks intervals (from week 13 after diagnosis to week 33).

All additional therapy (High Dose Methotrexate, Vincristin, Dexamethasone, 6-Mercaptopurine, doxorubicin, intrathecal chemotherapy) is the same in both arms.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

PEG Asparaginase at six weeks interval

Intervention Type DRUG

PEG-asparaginase (1.000 IU/m2/dose) given at six weeks intervals (until the patient has received 33 weeks of therapy)

PEG-Asparaginase 2 weeks intervals

PEG-asparaginase (1.000 IU/m2/dose) given at two weeks intervals (from week 13 after diagnosis to week 33).

All additional therapy (High Dose Methotrexate, Vincristin, Dexamethasone, 6-Mercaptopurine, doxorubicin, intrathecal chemotherapy) is the same in both arms.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

PEG Asparaginase at two weeks interval

Intervention Type DRUG

PEG-asparaginase (1.000 IU/m2/dose) given at two weeks intervals (until the patient has received 33 weeks of therapy)
