Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - asparaginase
Treatment: Drugs - dexamethasone

Experimental: Arm I (induction therapy) - Patients receive idarubicin IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 2; oral dexamethasone twice daily on days 1-5 and 15-19; intrathecal (IT) methotrexate on days 1 and 8; vincristine sulfate IV on days 3, 10, 17, and 24; and pegaspargase intramuscularly (IM) on days 3 and 17 or asparaginase IM on days 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, and 25.

Experimental: Arm II (induction therapy) - Patients receive mitoxantrone IV over 1 hour on days 1 and 2. Patients also receive dexamethasone, methotrexate, vincristine sulfate, and pegaspargase or asparaginase as in arm I.
