"Geriatric Assessment Adapted" Therapy for Ph- ALL Elderly Patients

This study aims at considering clinical heterogeneity of patients based on a "geriatric assessment" without taking into account the real age of the subject. This will allow physicians to adapt therapy according to three different groups of patients: frail, fit and intermediate and to evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of a therapy adapted to the different categories of patients.

About this study

Treatment:

  • Frail patients:
  • Pretreatment with PDN
  • Induction with Vinblastine and PDN
  • Maintenance with MTX, 6-MP, VBL and PDN
  • Fit patients:
  • Pretreatment with PDN
  • Induction with VCR, DNR and PDN
  • Consolidation with MTX, ARA-C and G-CSF
  • Autologous transplantation
  • Maintenance with MTX, 6-MP, VCR, and PDN
  • Intermediate patients:
  • Pretreatment with PDN
  • Induction with VCR, DNR and PDN
  • Consolidation with MTX, ARA-C and G-CSF
  • A second cycle of consolidation therapy
  • Maintenance with MTX, 6-MP, VCR, and PDN

Treatment and study plan

Geriatric assessment adapted therapy

Procedure

Geriatric assessment is performed before the induction phase starts.

Stem cells autotransplantation

Procedure

Stem cells autotransplantation is performed after consolidation treatment

Primary outcomes

  1. Overall survival in Ph negative ALL patients stratified according to a geriatric assessment

    Time frame: at 6 months from diagnosis for the Frail group of pts and at 2 years from diagnosis for the Fit and Intermediate group of patients

Secondary outcomes

  1. Complete Response rate

    Time frame: After induction therapy

  2. Stem cell autotransplant feasibility

    Time frame: At 6 months from diagnosis

  3. Incidence of adult ALL

    Time frame: At diagnosis

  4. Evaluation of molecular, cytogenetics and immunophenotype heterogeneity in ph negative ALL patients >60

    Time frame: At diagnosis and during follow-up

  5. Disease free survival

    Time frame: During follow-up
