Trial Information

A Study of Bortezomib With Chemotherapy for Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia


All patients will receive 1 course of chemotherapy unless medical complications prevent the
administration of some of the drugs. Treatment will last about 1 month.

Treatment on this study will consist of a combination of 7 anti-cancer medications. The 7
anti-cancer medicines are bortezomib, vincristine, dexamethasone, PEG-asparaginase,
doxorubicin, cytarabine (Ara-C), and methotrexate (MTX).

If you are in the Phase I portion of this study, you will be given an assigned dose of
bortezomib. The dose of bortezomib will be based on doses given in previous studies done
with adults and children. At each dose level of bortezomib, between 3 and 6 children will
receive bortezomib in combination with chemotherapy. If the side effects are not too
severe, the next group of children will receive a higher dose. The dose will continue to be
increased until we find the dose that causes serious side effects. Your dose of bortezomib
will not be increased. If you have bad side effects, your dose may be decreased.

The dose used during the Phase 2 part of this study will be determined by the outcome of the
Phase I study. The highest dose used in Phase I that was tolerated without serious side
effects will be the one used in Phase 2.
