About this trial
The pilot study collects the experience of previously successful treatment of infants, children and young adults, with ALL from a number of well-renowned study groups into a new platform protocol, which is both a comprehensive system for stratification and treatment of ALL in this age-group as well as the basis for several randomised trials included in the study-design.
The pilot study is implemented as a master protocol without study specific interventions, thus as an observational study. The pilot study is for countries/study-groups who intend to join ALLTogether1 (including experimental interventions). For these countries the pilot study is crucial to optimise diagnostics, registration systems, collaborations with vendors, logistics and data-checks before starting the main study.
The study only includes "standard of care" treatment included in the master protocol.
