Study Summary

This trial is using novel precision medicine strategies based on inherited and acquired leukemia-specific genomic features and targeted treatment approaches to improve the cure rate and quality of life of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute lymphoblastic lymphoma (LLy).

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children aged 1-18 with newly diagnosed B-cell or T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoma, who haven't had much treatment before. They must be able to give consent and not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or unwilling to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a combination of drugs like Calaspargase Pegol and Bortezomib among others, aiming to improve survival rates by targeting specific genetic features of the leukemia. It includes precision medicine strategies and therapies such as CAR T cells for certain patients.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include allergic reactions to medication components, nerve damage from drugs like Vincristine, increased risk of infections due to immune system suppression, liver problems from medications like Methotrexate and Mercaptopurine.

Group VI: ALL, CEP72 T/T, VincristineExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients with the CEP72 rs904627T/T genotype (~16% of patients) will be randomized (unblinded design, only those who evaluate neuropathy are blinded) to receive either 1.5 mg/m^2 or 1 mg/m^2 of vincristine after Continuation Week 1. Patients in low- risk will complete vincristine in Week 49 and those in standard/high-risk will complete in Week 101. Intervention: vincristine.
Group VII: ALL, CEP72 C/T or C/C, VincristineExperimental Treatment4 Interventions
Patients with either a CEP72 rs904627 C/T or C/C genotype (~84% of patients) will be randomized (unblinded design, only those who evaluate neuropathy are blinded) to receive vincristine (2 mg/m^2 per dose except during Reinduction I and Reinduction II when 3 weekly doses of 1.5 mg/m^2 will be given) and dexamethasone pulses through Week 49 of Continuation Treatment or through Week 101 of Continuation Treatment.

"The age range for candidates eligible for recruitment into this trial are those that are older than 1 year, but have not yet reached 18 years of age."

Answered by AI

What other drugs has Bortezomib been tested with in the past?

"The first clinical trial for bortezomib was completed in 1997 at Spectrum Health Hospital - Butterworth Campus. Since then, there have been 4356 completed trials and 2321 live clinical trials. A large concentration of these studies are based in Memphis, Tennessee."
