Brief Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Giving more than one drug may kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known which combination chemotherapy regimen is more effective in treating childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is comparing different combination chemotherapy regimens to see how well they work in treating children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Event Free Survival
The primary outcome index used in examining the randomized treatment groups will be event free survival (EFS) from the time of randomization (i.e., end of Consolidation), where the life table events will consist of the first occurrence of leukemic relapse at any site, death, or occurrence of a second malignancy.
Time of randomization
Study Arms (7)
Induction Not Randomized
EXPERIMENTALStandard Induction (28 Days). M3 Marrow at Day 28 and Off Protocol Therapy.
Induction and Oral MTX, Double Delayed Intensification CNS
EXPERIMENTALPatients with CNS disease at diagnosis, without other unfavorable characteristics. Standard Induction (28 Days). Consolidation (28 days) and in remission Day 21 and at time of randomization, Interim maintenance I (2 months), Delayed intensification I (2 months), Interim maintenance II (2 months), Delayed intensification II (2 months), then Maintenance (12 week cycles). Cranial radiation therapy during the Consolidation phase.
Induction and Augmented regimen (IV MTX, Double DI)
EXPERIMENTALPatients with unfavorable characteristics. Standard Induction (14 Days), Augmented Induction (Days 14-35), Consolidation (9 weeks), Interim Maintenance I (56 Days), Delayed Intensification I (2 months), Interim Maintenance II (2 months), Delayed Intensification II (2 months), then Maintenance (84 day courses).
Induction and Oral MTX, Single Delayed Intensification
EXPERIMENTALPatients without CNS disease at diagnosis, with favorable cytogenetics. Standard Induction (28 Days). Consolidation (28 days) and in remission Day 21 and at time of randomization, Interim maintenance I (2 months), Delayed intensification I (2 months), Interim maintenance II (2 months) then Maintenance (12 week cycles). Biopsy-proven testicular leukemia pts at diagnosis will receive testicular radiation therapy during the consolidation phase.
Induction and Oral MTX, Double Delayed Intensification

Biopsy-proven testicular leukemia pts at diagnosis will receive testicular radiation therapy during the consolidation phase.
Induction and IV MTX, Single Delayed Intensification
EXPERIMENTALPatients without CNS disease at diagnosis, with favorable cytogenetics. Standard Induction (28 Days). Consolidation (28 days) and in remission Day 21 and at time of randomization, Interim maintenance I (2 months), Delayed intensification I (2 months), Interim maintenance II (2 months) then Maintenance (12 week cycles). Biopsy-proven testicular leukemia pts at diagnosis will receive testicular radiation therapy during the consolidation phase.
Induction and IV MTX, Double Delayed Intensification
EXPERIMENTALPatients without CNS disease at diagnosis, with favorable cytogenetics. Standard Induction (28 Days). Consolidation (28 days) and in event free remission Day 21 and at time of randomization, Interim maintenance I (2 months), Delayed intensification I (2 months), Interim maintenance II (2 months), Delayed intensification II (2 months), then Maintenance (12 week cycles). Biopsy-proven testicular leukemia pts at diagnosis will receive testicular radiation therapy during the consolidation phase.
