The objectives for the ALLIC-BFM 2022 Protocol are directed to improve survival rates, to reduce morbidity and mortality and to answer randomized questions, in order to find new strategies for achieving a more accurate treatment for children with ALL. The aims will be the following:
1. To improve the EFS probability of children with ALL.
2. To achieve a better risk group definition:
2.1. Improving genetic studies at diagnosis.
2.2. Adding MRD determinations on day 33 and day 78 by Flow-Cytometry (FC).
3. To decrease deaths during induction phase rate and deaths in Complete Remission rate.
4. To evaluate the role of intensified treatment element with PEG-asparaginase (Peg-Asp).
5. To evaluate the impact of immunotherapy (anti CD20) for Bcp-ALL patients.
Secondary objectives 5
- 1. To improve the EFS probability of children with ALL.
- 2. To achieve a better risk group definition: 2.1. Improving genetic studies at diagnosis. 2.2. Adding MRD determinations on day 33 and day 78 by Flow-Cytometry.
- 3. To decrease deaths during induction phase rate and deaths in Complete Remission rate.
- 4. To evaluate the role of intensified treatment element with PEG-asparaginase.
- 5. To evaluate the impact of immunotherapy (anti CD20) for Bcp-ALL patients.

Study design 3 periods
| # | Title | Allocation | Blinding | Roles blinded | Arms |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | EARLY TREATMENT RESPONSE The early response to therapy is the most important stratification principle in ALLIC-BFM
2022. Early response will be assessed by the measure of MRD on day 15 for Bcp-ALL,
independent of Prednisone Response (PR) for this population of patients. However, PR will
be considered for T-ALL stratification.

Not Applicable | None | Not applicable: Not applicable | |
| 2 | Evidence basis for Peg-Asparaginase randomization The results of previous ALLIC studies reveal the need to improve survival rates in
order to achieve results closer to those of BFM-AIEOP protocols, considering that the
backbone is the same. On the other hand, several trials have demonstrated that early
intensification is needed for improving outcome. The incorporation of Peg-Asp in first line
therapy in phase A of protocol I is a new tool for improving early response and it could be an
interesting drug to be included in phase B of protocol I.
Several studies have demonstrated the important role of Peg-Asp in improving
survival rates and for decreasing relapse rates, even with a higher incidence of adverse
reactions, mainly immunological, as well as thrombosis, hyperglycemia and gastrointestinal
[14-15].
For this reason, the ALLIC-BFM 2022 plans to include a randomization that will try to
disclose if an Extended arm with Peg-Asp during IB phase could improve the quality of CR
and achieve a lower MRD on day 78 in patients who receive the experimental arm with
additional doses of Peg-Asp.

Randomised Controlled | None | Not applicable: Not applicable | |
| 3 | Evidence basis for Rituximab randomization Inspired by adult studies but never investigated systematically in children with CD20
positive ALL, in this study the role of the inclusion of anti-CD20 antibody in early treatment
elements of the therapy will be investigated. This question will be answered through a
randomization in patients who present CD20 positivity in MRD on day 15 by FC [16-18].
|
Randomised Controlled | None | Rhituximab: Patients eligible for rituximab randomization (all criteria must be fulfilled) 1. Age >1 year at the time of diagnosis. 2. Intermediate and High-risk pB-ALL defined by genetics and/or inadequate treatment response measured on day 15. 3. Day 15 bone marrow MRD CD20+ positivity: defined MRD level >=0.1% and with the of CD20 in >=10% of residual blasts in a BM sample with at least 300,000 nucleated cells/events. Exclusion criteria • Positive HBV serology (hepatitis B surface (HBs) antigen positive and HBc antibody positive/HBs antibody negative) and TBC documentation. Standard: participant does not fall within any stratification class. |

Principal inclusion / exclusion criteria as submitted by sponsor
Inclusion criteria 6
- Age at diagnosis 1- <18 years.
- 2. Start of induction therapy within the enrollment period of the trial: from December 1st, 2022 through December 31, 2028.
- 3- Diagnosis of ALL ensured by all the diagnostic criteria defined in the protocol.
- 4.Informed consent to participate in ALL IC-BFM 2022 trial available.

Endpoints
Primary and secondary outcome measures (English text)
Primary endpoints 1
- The primary endpoint will be the minimum time from the randomization until the first event: non-response after HR2 consolidation block, relapse, second malignancy or death from any cause (EFS time).
Secondary endpoints 5
- Time to death from any cause, measured from the time of randomization (survival time).
- End of induction (day 33) and end of early intensification (day 78) MRD status.
- Safety of rituximab in combination with intensive chemotherapy: -Death in CR will be compared between the two arms. -The rate of severe infections (CTC grade 3 to 5) during the treatment and until the end of chemotherapy will be compared between the two arms. -The rate of rituximab infusion reactions (total number and by severity of reactions) will be estimated. -The rate of intensive care unit admissions will be compared between the two arms.
- -Occurrence of infections on the target list (presumably associated with rituximab) will be compared between the two arms: cytomegalovirus, progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy and Herpes zoster. -Need for immunoglobulin substitution will be compared between the two arms. IgG level will be measured at day 0 and then by physician discretion, but at least once monthly until the end of intensive chemotherapy and once every 3 months during maintenance chemotherapy until reaching normal level w
- Additional Researchs: -To determine the relationship between CD20 expression on ALL blasts (initially, day 15, day 33, day 78) and response to monoclonal antibody therapy. -To determine whether the administration of an anti-B cell monoclonal antibody limits the incidence of peg-asparaginase allergy occurrence.
