Treatment: Drugs - vinblastine sulfate
Treatment: Drugs - vincristine sulfate

Experimental: Standard APO with Vincristine (Arm I ) - In courses 1-3, patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride (30 mg/m2) IV over 15 minutes, vincristine sulfate (1.5 mg/m2 (maximum dose 2 mg)) IV, and methotrexate intrathecally (age-adjusted dosing) (IT) on day 1 and oral prednisone (40 mg/m2/day) three times daily and oral mercaptopurine (225 mg/m2) once daily on days 1-5. In courses 4 and 5, patients receive doxorubicin (30 mg/m2), vincristine sulfate (1.5 mg/m2 (Maximum dose 2 mg)), prednisone (120 mg/m2/day), and mercaptopurine (225 mg/m2) as in courses 1-3. In courses 6-15, patients receive vincristine sulfate (1.5 mg/m2), prednisone (120 mg/m2/day), and mercaptopurine (225 mg/m2) as in courses 1-3 and methotrexate (60 mg/m2) IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 15 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Experimental: Consolidation with Vinblastine - In courses 1-3, patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride (30 mg/m2) IV, methotrexate (age adjusted dosing) IT, prednisone (120 mg/m2/day), and mercaptopurine (225 mg/m2) as in arm I and vinblastine sulfate (4 mg/m2) IV over 1 minute on days 1, 8, and 15. In courses 4 and 5, patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride (30 mg/m2) IV, prednisone (120 mg/m2/day), and mercaptopurine (225 mg/m2) as in arm I and vinblastine sulfate (4 mg/m2) as in arm II (courses 1-3). In courses 6-15, patients receive prednisone (120 mg/m2/day) and mercaptopurine (225 mg/m2) as in arm I, vinblastine sulfate (4 mg/m2) IV as in arm II (courses 1-3), and methotrexate (60 mg/m2) IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for up to 15 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
