Newly-diagnosed Intermediate/High Risk Pediatric B-cell ALL Protocol

Chinese Children's Cancer Group-2025 Protocol for Newly Diagnosed for Intermediate/High Risk Childhood B-cell ALL

Building upon the results from the CCCG-ALL-2015, CCCG-ALL-2020 multicenter study cohort, concurrent research findings, and the latest clinical trials, the CCCG-ALL-2025 I/HR-B-ALL is thus developed to further improve the event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival (OS), and quality of life (QoL) of children with intermediate- and high- risk B-cell childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (I/HR-B-ALL), while decreasing adverse reactions and transplantation rates. This trial primarily aims to explore:

1. The efficacy of two randomized Blinatumomab application scheme on I/HR-ALL as determined by MRD negatvitiy rate.
2. The efficacy of modified mini-hyperCVD + Venetoclax in I/HR-ALL cannot afford blinatumomab, in contrast to historical control as determined by MRD negatvitiy rate.

The study shown above will lead to the following revisions to the CCCG-ALL2025 I/HR-B-ALL plan, which will be based on the CCCG-ALL2020 plan.

1. After the induction remission phase, all I/HR-B-ALL patients can afford blinatumomab will participate in a blinatumomab+HDMTX randomized controlled trial as consolidation.
2. For patients cannot afford blinatumomab will be treated with venetoclax + modified mini-hyperCVD during the induction phase, then subsequently with CAT as consolidation phase. CAT will removed from induction phase.
3. For patients who received blinatumomab randomization, the CAT+ course was canceled.
4. All patients will continued with 6 cycles of alternated 5-day venetoclax or Dauno-based CCCG-2020 continuous therapy regimen.
5. Adding IgH rearrangement NGS MRD as an evaluation indicator.
6. Adding pharmacotyping study for I/HR B-ALL.
7. Three more bone marrow punctures and IT will be added with the aims to evaluate the CR rate with deepen remission during or after consolidation.

6. Secondary leukemia
7. Known underlying congenital immunodeficiency or metabolic disease
8. Congenital heart disease with cardiac insufficiency.
9. Treated with glucocorticoids for ≥14 days, or ABL kinase inhibitors for > 7 days within one month before enrollment, or any chemotherapy or radiotherapy within 3 months before enrollment (except for emergency radiotherapy to relieve airway compression)
