Young Adult Acute Lymphoid Leukemia (ALL): Intensification of Pediatric AIEOP LLA-2000 Treatment


OBJECTIVES:

- To determine the feasibility of combination chemotherapy in young adult patients with
acute lymphoid leukemia.

- To determine the complete response rate at the end of induction therapy in these
patients.

- To determine the overall survival of patients treated with these regimens.

- To determine the disease-free survival of patients treated with these regimens.

- To determine the event-free survival of patients treated with these regimens.

- To determine toxicity of these regimens.

- To determine compliance related to dose intensity.

OUTLINE:

- Steroids prephase therapy: All patients receive steroids (i.e., prednisone or
methylprednisolone) and methotrexate.

- Induction therapy (induction Ia followed by Ib): Patients receive induction Ia
comprising vincristine, daunorubicin hydrochloride, asparaginase, and prednisone. They
then receive induction Ib comprising cyclophosphamide, mercaptopurine, and cytarabine.
Patients who achieve hematological remission proceed to consolidation therapy.

- Consolidation therapy: Patients receive consolidation therapy according to risk group.

- Standard-risk patients: Patients receive high-dose methotrexate and
mercaptopurine.

- High-risk patients: Patients receive consolidation therapy in 3 steps.

- Step 1: Patients receive dexamethasone, vincristine, methotrexate,
cytarabine, and asparaginase.

- Step 2: Patients receive dexamethasone, vindesine, methotrexate, ifosfamide,
asparaginase, and daunorubicin hydrochloride.

- Step 3: Patients receive dexamethasone, cytarabine, and asparaginase. After
completion of consolidation therapy, patients proceed to reinduction therapy.

- Reinduction therapy (reinduction IIa followed by IIb): Patients receive reinduction IIa
comprising vincristine, doxorubicin hydrochloride, asparaginase, and dexamethasone.
Patients then receive reinduction IIb comprising cyclophosphamide, thioguanine, and
cytarabine.
