NCT01046825

Brief Summary

This is a phase III clinical trial using risk-adapted therapy. Treatment outcomes for children with B-cell NHL are excellent. Further improvements in outcome will likely be achieved through more focused study of the biology of the tumors and prospective studies of the late effects of treatment. Toward this end, this study features a spectrum of prospective biologic and late effect studies performed in patients treated with a modified regimen derived from the very successful LMB-96 regimen.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

  • Gene Differential Expression Profiling of Burkitt Lymphoma (BL) vs. Non-BL in the US and Other Selected Geographic Regions of the World

    Gene expression levels in BL vs. non-BL will be analyzed through approximately 22,000 probesets on the Affymetrix U133A GeneChip by using two-factor analysis of variance model for each gene.

    1 year after the participant is enrolled

  • Catalog and Estimate Frequencies of Copy Number Variations in Childhood Lymphomas

    The prevalence of CNVs between different subtypes of childhood lymphomas and geographic regions will be reported and compared with exact chi-square or Fisher's test. The CNVs are derived from Affymetrix SNP arrays.

    1 year after the participant is enrolled

  • Integrated Analysis of CNVs and Gene Expressions in the US and Other Selected Geographic Regions of the World

    The association between the identified CNVs and gene expressions in the study cohort will be examined by using general linear models, and multiple tests will be considered. Gene expressions are measured by Affymetrix U133A arrays and CNVs are derived from Affymetrix SNP arrays.

    1 year after the participant is enrolled

  • Pattern and Frequency of XLP Gene Mutations Presenting With B-cell Lymphomas in the United States and Selected Geographic Regions

    Frequency of XLP mutation among boys will be calculated in each geographical region as well as in all regions pooled. The frequency is reported here as the number of boys with XLP gene mutations found in B-cell lymphomas boys.

    1 year after the participant enrollment

  • Frequency of EBV Protein Expression (e.g., EBNA 3) in EBV-positive Lymphomas

    Frequency of EBV-positive BL will be calculated for each geographical region.

    1 year after the participant is enrolled

Other Outcomes (3)

  • Overall Survival

    Up to 5 years after completion of therapy

  • Event-free Survival

    Up to 5 years after completion of therapy

  • Complete Response Rate

    Up to 5 years after completion of therapy
