This research aims to improve treatment and survival quality for infants, children, and young adults aged 0 to 45 years with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia ALL. It combines experiences from multiple European study groups into a master protocol that offers comprehensive risk stratification and treatment plans. The study includes randomized and interventional trials to identify therapies that may be less toxic and more effective, particularly focusing on reducing relapse and treatment-related side effects. Participants receive treatment based on a master protocol considered standard care, with additional randomized interventions testing modifications like reducing or omitting specific chemotherapy drugs such as Doxorubicin, Vincristine, and Dexamethasone. Some patients receive experimental treatments including Inotuzumab ozogamicin, Imatinib, 6-tioguanine, and Blinatumomab. Specific sub-studies also examine pharmacokinetics, neurocognitive outcomes, and cerebrospinal fluid diagnostics. The study design allows modular addition or stopping of sub-protocols and interventions. Throughout the study, participants undergo various assessments including monitoring of disease progression, side effects, and drug activity. Researchers evaluate event-free survival, disease-free survival, minimal residual disease response, and overall survival over multiple years, with follow-up periods extending up to 8 years. Participants cognitive functions and treatment toxicities are also assessed using specialized tests and questionnaires. Safety and adverse events are closely monitored to better understand treatment impacts over time.
