Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - asparaginase
Treatment: Drugs - daunorubicin hydrochloride
Treatment: Drugs - cytarabine
Treatment: Drugs - thioguanine
Treatment: Drugs - etoposide
Other interventions - laboratory biomarker analysis

Experimental: Treatment (combination chemotherapy) - INDUCTION THERAPY COURSE I: Patients receive cytarabine IT on day 1 and cytarabine IV continuously over 96 hours, daunorubicin hydrochloride IV continuously, and oral thioguanine BID on days 1-4. COURSE II: Patients receive high-dose cytarabine IV over 3 hours BID on days 1, 2, 8, and 9 and asparaginase (IM) on days 2 and 9.

COURSE III: Patients receive treatment as in course I. COURSE IV: Patients receive cytarabine IV, daunorubicin hydrochloride IV, and oral thioguanine as in course I

INTENSIFICATION THERAPY: Patients receive cytarabine IV continuously over 168 hours on days 1-7 and etoposide IV over 1 hour on days 1-3. Treatment repeats every 28 days for 2 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
