Asparaginase is an important drug i the treatment of childhood leukaemia.
The aim of this project is to study the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and antibody development and hypersensitivity reactions during prolonged PEG-asparaginase treatment.
Study part 1) Asparaginase pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics during prolonged PEG-asparaginase treatment: A NOPHO ALL-2008 study
Study part 2) Asparagine depletion in cerebrospinal fluid: A NOPHO ALL-2008 study
Study part 3) A characterization of PEG-asparaginase hypersensitivity in children treated according to the NOPHO ALL 2008 protocol
Perspectives: New knowledge about PEG-asparaginase treatment regarding dosing, dosing interval, adverse effects and EFS, which may lead to improved future therapy
Patients: Children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia in the Nordic Countries

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Asparagine depletion | Blood samples and cerebrospinal fluid samples are collected at certain timepoints during 30 weeks of treatment with PEG-asparaginase. They are analyzed for asparagine, asparaginase-enzyme activity and asparaginase-antibodies.These measures tell about the effect of the drug, PEG-asparaginase. | Up to 30 weeks of treatment |
