Comparison of Different Combination Chemotherapy Regimens in Treating Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Escalating Dose Intravenous Methotrexate Without Leucovorin Rescue Versus Oral Methotrexate and Single Versus Double Delayed Intensification for Children With Standard Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing different combination chemotherapy regimens to see how well they work in treating children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
- Compare the event-free survival and overall survival of children with standard-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated with escalating-dose IV methotrexate without leucovorin calcium versus oral methotrexate during the interim maintenance phase of therapy.
- Compare the event-free survival and overall survival of these patients after receiving treatment in two delayed intensification phases versus one delayed intensification phase.
- Compare the toxic effects of oral versus escalating-dose intravenous methotrexate in these patients.
- Determine the prognostic significance of the rate of disappearance of peripheral lymphoblasts and lymphocytes during the first week of treatment in these patients.
- Determine the prognostic significance of trisomies of chromosomes 4, 5, 10, and 17 and early treatment response in patients treated with these regimens.
- Determine the prognostic significance of the TEL-AML1 fusion transcript and early treatment response in patients treated with these regimens.
- Determine the minimal residual disease (MRD) by polymerase chain reaction in bone marrow and cerebrospinal fluid at various stages of therapy in these patients.
- Determine the prognostic significance of MRD during various stages of therapy in these patients.
- Determine whether a second delayed intensification therapy improves the prognosis of patients who have MRD at the end of induction therapy.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, multicenter study. Patients without CNS disease at diagnosis, achieving a specified early marrow response profile and M1 marrow status of less than 5% blasts in the bone marrow (regardless of the proportion of mature lymphocytes) by day 28 of induction therapy, and remaining event free with favorable bone marrow status and cytogenetics between day 21 and 28 of consolidation therapy are randomized to one of four treatment arms. Patients with CNS disease at diagnosis are assigned to treatment arm II and undergo cranial irradiation. Patients with any of the following unfavorable bone marrow features and/or unfavorable cytogenetic features are assigned to the augmented treatment regimen by day 21 of induction chemotherapy or at the beginning of consolidation chemotherapy:
NOTE: All T-cell precursor patients that are not more than 4 months past completion of the delayed intensification phase of therapy should be switched to the augmented regimen as of 3/8/2004. These patients may be switched to the augmented regimen. The protocol gives specific instructions according to the phase of therapy the patients are actually in.
Unfavorable marrow status:
- M2: 5-25% blasts in bone marrow at day 28 of induction chemotherapy (or at day 14 of induction chemotherapy if day 7 status is M3) OR
- M3: More than 25% blast cell in bone marrow, regardless of the proportion of mature lymphocytes at day 14 of induction chemotherapy
Unfavorable cytogenetics: Must have 1 of the following:
- t(9;22)(q34;q11)
- t(4;11)(q21;q23)
- Balanced t(1;19)(q23;p13)
- Hypodiploidy with less than 45 chromosomes
- Other 11q23 translocations involving MLL Patients receive standard induction chemotherapy comprising cytarabine (ARA-C) intrathecally (IT) on day 0 or up to 72 hours before day 0; oral dexamethasone (DM) twice daily on days 0-27; vincristine (VCR) IV on days 0, 7, 14, and 21; and pegaspargase (PEG-ASP) intramuscularly (IM) once between days 3-5. Patients without CNS disease at diagnosis receive methotrexate (MTX) IT on days 7 and 28. Patients with CNS disease at diagnosis receive MTX IT on days 7, 14, 21, and 28.
Patients who have achieved M1 marrow status by day 28 of induction therapy and have favorable early bone marrow response and cytogenetics proceed to standard consolidation therapy once blood counts have recovered. Patients with M3 bone marrow status at day 28 of induction therapy are taken off the protocol. All other patients are assigned to the augmented treatment regimen.
Beginning on day 28 of induction chemotherapy, patients receive standard consolidation chemotherapy comprising VCR IV on day 0 and oral mercaptopurine (MP) on days 0-27. Patients without CNS disease at diagnosis receive MTX IT on days 7, 14, 21, and 28. Patients with CNS disease at diagnosis receive MTX IT on day 7 and cranial irradiation 5 days a week for 2 weeks. Patients with testicular disease receive bilateral testicular radiotherapy 5 days a week for 1 week and then for 3 consecutive days during the next week.
NOTE: As of 3/8/2004, patients with T-cell disease who did not achieve M1 marrow status by day 14 of induction OR who did not receive augmented induction and/or consolidation (regardless of early marrow status) receive cranial irradiation.
- Arm I: Beginning on day 28 of consolidation chemotherapy, patients receive interim maintenance I chemotherapy comprising oral DM twice daily on days 0-4 and 28-32; VCR IV on days 0 and 28; oral MTX on days 0, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, and 49; oral MP on days 0-49; and MTX IT on day 28.

Beginning on day 56 of delayed intensification chemotherapy, patients receive interim maintenance II chemotherapy identical to interim maintenance I chemotherapy except patients receive MTX IT on days 0 and 28.
Beginning on day 56 of interim maintenance II chemotherapy, patients receive maintenance chemotherapy comprising oral DM twice daily on days 0-4, 28-32, and 56-60; VCR IV on days 0, 28, and 56; oral MP on days 0-83; oral MTX on days 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, and 77; and MTX IT on day 0.
- Arm II: Patients receive interim maintenance I chemotherapy, delayed intensification chemotherapy, and interim maintenance II chemotherapy as in arm I. Beginning on day 56 of interim maintenance II chemotherapy, patients then receive a second course of delayed intensification chemotherapy followed by maintenance chemotherapy as in arm I.
- Arm III: Beginning on day 28 of consolidation chemotherapy, patients receive interim maintenance I chemotherapy comprising VCR IV; escalating doses of MTX IV on days 0, 10, 20, 30, and 40; and MTX IT on day 30. Patients then receive delayed intensification chemotherapy as in arm I. Patients receive interim maintenance II chemotherapy as in interim maintenance I chemotherapy, but with IV MTX starting at 2/3 of the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) attained in interim maintenance I chemotherapy. Patients then receive maintenance chemotherapy as in arm I.
- Arm IV: Patients receive interim maintenance I chemotherapy as in arm III, delayed intensification chemotherapy as in arm I, interim maintenance II chemotherapy as in arm III, delayed intensification II chemotherapy as in arm II, and maintenance chemotherapy as in arm I.
- Augmented Treatment: Patients receive induction chemotherapy comprising daunorubicin IV continuously for 48 hours beginning no later than day 21; oral DM twice daily on days 14-27; and VCR IV on days 14 and 21.

NOTE: Patients with T-cell disease who are in interim maintenance I chemotherapy with escalating IV methotrexate should continue this phase and then proceed as per the augmented regimen. If these patients are receiving conventional interim maintenance chemotherapy with oral methotrexate, they should stop and restart the interim maintenance as per the augmented regimen. These patients receive cranial irradiation starting on day 28 of delayed intensification II chemotherapy.
Beginning on day 56 of delayed intensification I chemotherapy, patients receive interim maintenance II chemotherapy as in interim maintenance I chemotherapy, but with IV MTX starting at 2/3 of the MTD attained in interim maintenance I chemotherapy.
NOTE: Patients with T-cell disease who are in delayed intensification I chemotherapy proceed with this phase, with the addition of 2 vincristine doses on days 42 and 49 and PEG-ASP on day 42. These patients then proceed as per the augmented regimen with the addition of cranial irradiation starting on day 28 of delayed intensification II chemotherapy.
NOTE: Patients with T-cell disease who are within 4 months of completing delayed intensification I chemotherapy and have not received interim maintenance II chemotherapy with escalating IV methotrexate or delayed intensification II chemotherapy receive a course of interim maintenance chemotherapy and delayed intensification II chemotherapy according to the augmented regimen. If these patients have received interim maintenance II chemotherapy with escalating IV methotrexate, they receive delayed intensification II chemotherapy according to the augmented regimen. These patients also receive cranial irradiation starting on day 28 of delayed intensification II chemotherapy and then proceed to maintenance therapy.
Beginning on day 56 of interim maintenance II chemotherapy, patients receive delayed intensification II chemotherapy as in delayed intensification I chemotherapy.

Event Free Survival
Time Frame: Time of randomization
|
The primary outcome index used in examining the randomized treatment groups will be event free survival (EFS) from the time of randomization (i.e., end of Consolidation), where the life table events will consist of the first occurrence of leukemic relapse at any site, death, or occurrence of a second malignancy.
