The goal of this prospective, multicenter, open observational study is to assess the efficacy and safety of the treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia Ph' positive adult patients with approved combinations of chemotherapy and tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI).
Efficay refers to the rate of Complete Molecular Response (BCR::ABL1/ABL1 ratio 0.01%) in eah treatment arm. Safety refers to measurement of i) Adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) according to standard clinical and laboratory tests (hematology and chemistry, physical examination, vital sign measurements, and diagnostic tests), ii) incidence and degree of cytopenias and iii) incidence and degree of infections.
Low-dose chemotherapy will be given together with the TKI imatinib to patients of all ages as induction to remission phase.
Consolidation treatment will continue with low-dose chemotherapy with imatinib if the patient fullfills both criteria: to show a measurable residual disease (MRD) value lower than 0,01% at 3 month of therapy, and not showing IKZF1plus genetics Those patients have any of these 2 conditions will be considered high-risk patients and will recieve consolidation treatment intensification with low-dose chemotherapy plus ponatinib as TKI and allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo SCT). The remaining patients (standard-risk) will receive maintenance chemotherapy together with imatinib or ponatinib and will not be submitted to alloSCT.
