Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Complete Remission Rate
After 1 month of treatment (Induction IA) for all participants, assessed at the end of first month of treatment in all participants through study completion (expected to take 4-5 years to accrue)
Event-Free Survival
From registration to the time of induction failure, relapse, death, or second malignancy, whichever came first, assessed up to 60 months.
Secondary Endpoints
Overall Survival
From registration to the time of death from any cause, assessed up to 60 months.
Disease Free Survival
From randomization or direct assignment (for participants who achieved a complete remission and were assigned a final risk group) to the time of relapse, death, or second malignancy, whichever came first, assessed up to 60 months.
Nadir Serum Asparaginase Activity (NSAA)
During post-induction therapy with 30-weeks of pegaspargase (15 doses), collected during the first 6 months of therapy for all participants through study completion (expected to take 4-5 years to accrue)

ArmTypeDescription
Initial Low Risk (Initial LR)OTHERMeets all the following criteria: B-ALL, Age 1-\<15 years, WBC \< 50,000/microliter, CNS-1 or CNS-2, no BCR-ABL1, no iAMP21, and no VHR characteristics. Treated with Induction IA (vincristine, dexamethasone, pegaspargase), Induction IB (cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, mercaptopurine), Consolidation IA (vincristine, high-dose methotrexate + leucovorin, mercaptopurine). IT chemotherapy in all phases. Final risk group assigned by end of Consolidation IA.
Initial High Risk (Initial HR)OTHERMeets at least one of the following criteria: Age \>=15 years, WBC \>=50,000/microliter, CNS-3, T-ALL, iAMP21, BCR-ABL1 And: No VHR characteristics Treated with Induction IA (vincristine, dexamethasone, pegaspargase, doxorubicin + dexrazoxane), Induction IB (cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, mercaptopurine), Consolidation IA (vincristine, high-dose methotrexate + leucovorin, mercaptopurine). IT chemotherapy in all phases. Final risk group assigned by end of Consolidation IA.
Initial Very High Risk (Initial VHR)OTHERAny of the following are present: IKZF1 deletion, MLL (KMT2A) rearrangement, low hypodiploidy, t(17;19) Treated with Induction IA (vincristine, dexamethasone, pegaspargase, doxorubicin + dexrazoxane), Induction IB (cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, mercaptopurine), Consolidation IA (vincristine, high-dose methotrexate + leucovorin, mercaptopurine). IT chemotherapy in all phases. Final risk group assigned by end of Consolidation IA.
Final Low Risk (Final LR)OTHERInitial Low Risk and Low MRD (\<0.0001) at first time point (Day 32) Final Risk Group assigned at end of Consolidation IA. Subsequent therapy as follows: CNS phase (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, pegaspargase \[by randomization or direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Consolidation II (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, pegaspargase \[by randomization or direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Continuation (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, IT chemotherapy). All treatment completed 24 months from date of complete remission.
Final Intermediate Risk (Final IR)OTHERInitial High Risk and Low MRD (\<0.0001) at first time point (Day 32) Final Risk Group assigned at end of Consolidation IA. Subsequent therapy as follows: CNS phase (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, pegaspargase \[by randomization or direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Consolidation II (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, doxorubicin + dexrazoxane, pegaspargase \[by randomization or direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Continuation (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, IT chemotherapy). All treatment completed 24 months from date of complete remission.
Final High Risk (Final HR)OTHERInitial Low Risk or Initial High Risk with High MRD (\>=0.0001) at first time point (Day 32) but low MRD (\<0.001) at second time point (week 10-12) Final Risk Group assigned at end of Consolidation IA. Subsequent therapy as follows: CNS phase (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, pegaspargase \[by randomization or direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Consolidation II (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, doxorubicin + dexrazoxane, pegaspargase \[by randomization or direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Continuation (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, IT chemotherapy). All treatment completed 24 months from date of complete remission.
Final Very High Risk (Final VHR)OTHERInitial VHR or any patient with high MRD (\>=0.001) at second time point (week 10-12) Final Risk Group assigned at end of Consolidation IA. Subsequent therapy as follows: Consolidation IB/B-ALL (High-dose methotrexate + leucovorin, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, IT chemotherapy); Consolidation IB/T-ALL (nelararbine, cyclophosphamide, etoposide); Consolidation IC (High-dose cytarabine, etoposide, dexamethasone, pegaspargase \[by direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); CNS phase (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, pegaspargase \[by direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Consolidation II (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, doxorubicin + dexrazoxane, pegaspargase \[by direct assignment\], IT chemotherapy); Continuation (vincristine, dexamethasone, mercaptopurine, methotrexate, IT chemotherapy). Dasatinib administered daily during all phases to pts with ABL1-class fusions. All treatment completed 24 months from date of complete remission.
Fixed Dose PegaspargaseACTIVE_COMPARATORFinal LR, IR, HR patients who consent to randomization and are assigned to receive 15 doses of pegaspargase every 2-weeks at standard fixed-dose (2500 IU/m2/dose).
Reduced Dose (PK-Adjusted) PegaspargaseEXPERIMENTALFinal LR, IR, HR patients who consent to randomization and are assigned to receive 15 doses of pegaspargase every 2-weeks beginning at a reduced dose (2000 IU/m2/dose); subsequent doses adjusted based on nadir serum asparaginase activity (NSAA) levels, with goal of maintaining NSAA between 0.4 and 1.0 IU/mL. Closed to Enrollment.
Direct AssignmentOTHERAll VHR patients, and any Final LR, IR, HR patients who decline randomization: Assigned to receive standard dosing of pegaspargase (15 doses of pegaspargase every 2-weeks at standard fixed-dose; 2500 IU/m2/dose).
