Calaspargase Pegol or Pegaspargase and Combination Chemotherapy in Treating Younger Patients With Newly Diagnosed High-Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Brief Summary
This randomized clinical trial is studying giving calaspargase pegol together with combination chemotherapy to see how well it works compared with giving pegaspargase together with combination chemotherapy in treating younger patients with newly diagnosed high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more cancer cells.

Study Arms (2)
Arm I (combination chemotherapy)
EXPERIMENTALPatients receive calaspargase pegol together with combination chemotherapy. Patients receive chemotherapy PO, IV, SC, and IT. Some patients also undergo radiation therapy to the head. Treatment may continue for up to 4 years.
Arm II (combination chemotherapy)
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients receive pegaspargase together with combination chemotherapy. Patients receive chemotherapy PO, IV, SC, and IT. Some patients also undergo RT to the head. Treatment may continue for up to 4 years.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients must be eligible for and enrolled on AALL08B1 or the successor classification study
- Patients must have newly diagnosed high-risk B lymphoblastic leukemia (World Health Organization \[WHO\] 2008 classification) (also termed B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia)
- White blood cell (WBC) \>= 50,000/μL for patients age 1-9 OR any WBC count for patients age 10-30 or for patients treated with prior steroids
- Patients shall have had no prior cytotoxic chemotherapy with the exception of steroids and intrathecal cytarabine; intrathecal chemotherapy with cytarabine is allowed prior to registration for patient convenience; this is usually done at the time of the diagnostic bone marrow or venous line placement to avoid a second lumbar puncture; (Note: the CNS status must be determined based on a sample obtained prior to administration of any systemic or intrathecal chemotherapy, except for steroid pretreatment) systemic chemotherapy must begin within 72 hours of this intrathecal therapy
- Patients receiving prior steroid therapy are eligible for this study; the dose and duration of previous steroid therapy should be carefully documented
- Pregnancy tests with a negative result must be obtained in all post-menarchal females
- Lactating females must agree that they will not breastfeed a child while on this study
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with Down syndrome are excluded from this study
- Patients with testicular leukemia at diagnosis are excluded from this study
- Pregnant female patients are excluded from this study
