- Original description
In this project, the investigators intend to start a prospective registry for patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia-negative ALL from 16 years old and above in participating centers, provided that all patients will be treated with the same regimen (a pediatric regimen BFM-based incorporating peg-asparaginase). All diagnostic/follow-up (after induction and consolidation blocks) samples will be centrally biobanked at Instituto do Cancer do Estado de Sao Paulo. The main goal of this study is to examine whether the implementation of a pediatric protocol under a prospective registry can increase event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) of newly diagnosed patients in the participating centers.Read full original descriptionShow less
