About this study

Official title: Chinese Children's Cancer Group T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia -2025 Project

This is a prospective, multicenter study conducted within the Chinese Children's Cancer Group (CCCG). The study aims to evaluate whether the addition of three novel agents, dasatinib, venetoclax and homoharringtonine, can improve the minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative remission rate, enhance event-free survival (EFS), and reduce the cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) in pediatric patients with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL).

Read the detailed description

The CCCG-T-ALL-2025 protocol will be modified as following based on the above analysis of the CCCG-ALL-2020 protocol.

  1. All T-ALL patients will receive 8 mg/m2/day dexamethasone in induction therapy.
  2. All non-ETP T-ALL patients will receive dasatinib after initial window phase in induction therapy.
  3. non-ETP T-ALL patients with MRD ≥ 0.01% on day 46 will be stratified and randomized to receive different doses of homoharringtonine during early intensification.
  4. For all ETP/near-ETP T-ALL patients, venetoclax will replace daunorubicin in induction therapy.
  5. For all ETP/near-ETP T-ALL patients, venetoclax will replace daunorubicin in interim therapy 2 and 4.
  6. CAT will replace CAT+ during early intensification, and will be administrated to all ETP/near-ETP patients, as well as non-ETP patients with MRD< 0.01% on day 46.

2.11.7 In maintenance therapy 2, the CTX+Ara-C treatment cycles are reduced to 5, in order to minimize the impact of alkylating agents on fertility.

2.11.8 Add drug sensitivity testing for T-ALL.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. End-of-induction(EOI) measurable residual diseases (MRD)-negativity rate in patients with non-ETP T-ALL treated with dasatinib plus 4-drug induction compared to those treated with 4-drug induction in CCCG-ALL-2020

    For this objective a one-sided comparison of probabilities (proportions) will be made. Let p1 and p2 be the probability of aciieving negative EOI MRD on the CCCG-ALL-2020 (historical control) and the current study respectively, then the one-sided alternative hypothesis H0: p2=p1 vs. H1: p2>p1 will be tested. The procedure of two-sample comparison of proportions with the Z-statistic (Normal approximation) will be applied.

    The current CCCG-ALL2020 data show that among 573 evaluable patients 510 (89%) achaived negative EOI MRD. Benchmarking on these as historical data, a total sample size of n=550 and interim sample size n1=300 provides sufficient popwer for the planned analyses outlined above if the true MRD negativity probability is 0.92 or higher, as shown in the table below.

    An interim analysis at n1=300 evaluable patients will be conducted for possible abstract submission or publication.

    Measured: The expected study duration is approximately 5 years.

  2. For non-ETP T-ALL patients with positive measurable residual diseases (MRD) on day 46, to compare MRD-negativity rate before consolidation between those receiving single agent homoharringtonine at dose of 1mg/m2 vs. 2mg/m2 for 7 days

    The comparison will be condicted by testing the two-sided hypothesis H0: p1=p2 vs. H1: p1≠p2, using the Z test (normal approximation) at alpha=0.10 level.

    The investigators anticipate approximately 40 patients available to be randomized. The participants will be randomized at 1:1 ratio into the two treatment arms, with 20 patients per arm. Stratified block-wise randomization will be applied with block size of 4. The randomization will be stratified by the EOI MRD level as <1% and >=1%.

    Measured: The expected study duration is approximately 5 years.

  3. End of induction (EOI) measurable residual diseases (MRD)-negativity rate with venetoclax plus 3-drug induction, compared to those treated with 4-drug induction on CCCG-ALL-2020 in treating ETP/near-ETP T-ALL.

    The investigators anticipate at least 60 evaluable ETP participants. The analysis will be conducted by testing H0: p2=p1 vs. H1: p2>p1, where p1, p2 are MRD-negative probabilities in the CCCG-ALL-2020 and the current study respectively. The Z-statistic (normal approximation) based procedure will be applied.

    Measured: The expected study duration is approximately 5 years.

  4. In interim therapies 2 and 4, venetoclax replaced daunorubicin to evaluate whether this change could improve event-free survival compared to similar patients on CCCG-ALL-2020 in treating ETP/near-ETP T-ALL.

    The investigators anticipate at least 60 evaluable participants. The event-free survival function will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Comparison will be conducted using the two-sided log-rank test.

    Measured: The expected study duration is approximately 5 years.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Event-free survival (EFS) of patients treated with this therapy, in comparison to historical regimens.

    The EFS functions will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method along with 95% confidence intervals at specified timepoints (e.g., 1, 3, 5 years since diagnosis). Standard error will be estimated using the default procedure in R. Follow up of the historical comparison cohort (CCCG-ALL-2020 and 2015) will continue during the course of the current trial. Comparisons of EFS will be performed using two-sided log-rank test. Multivariable regression modeling including trial (CCCGALL-2025 vs. 2020 or 2015) and other known prognostic factors as main effects may also be performed, using the Cox models.

    Measured: Approximately 6.5 years.

  2. Overall survival (OS) of patients treated with this therapy, in comparison to historical regimens

    The OS functions will be estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method along with 95% confidence intervals at specified timepoints (e.g., 1, 3, 5 years since diagnosis). Comparison of OS functions will be conducted using the two-sided log-rank test. Standard error will be estimated using the default procedure in R. Follow up of the historical comparison cohort (CCCG-ALL-2020 and 2015) will continue during the course of the current trial. Comparisons of OS will be performed using two-sided log-rank test. Multivariable regression modeling including trial (CCCGALL-2025 vs. 2020 or 2015) and other known prognostic factors as main effects may also be performed, using the Cox models.

    Measured: Approximately 6.5 years.

  3. Cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) of this therapy, in comparison to historical regimens.

    CIR functions of relapse will be estimated by the Kalbafleisch-Prentice method. Follow up of the historical comparison cohort (CCCG-ALL-2020 and 2015) will continue during the course of the current trial. Comparisons of CIR will be performed by Gray's test. Multivariable regression modeling including trial (CCCGALL-2025 vs. 2020 or 2015) and other known prognostic factors as main effects may also be performed, using the Fine-Gray models.

    Measured: Approximately 6.5 years.

  4. Incidence of Grade 4 Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE) associated with venetoclax and homoharringtonine

    Proportions of grade-4 TEAEs in each treatment phase will be estimated by the sample proportions along with exact 95% confidence intervals. Cumulative incidences of various grade-3 or higher AEs throughout therapy will be estimated by the Kalbafleisch-Prentice method; death, relapse and other events rendering off therapy before completion are regarded as competing risks.

    Measured: Up to 30 days after last dose of study treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Venetoclax, Dasatinib and homoharringtonine in people with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and Childhood Leukemia, Acute Lymphoblastic, run by Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, China at 27 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 27 sites in China, Hong Kong. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jingliao Zhang, MD (+86 22 23909196, zhangjingliao@ihcams.ac.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

End-of-induction(EOI) measurable residual diseases (MRD)-negativity rate in patients with non-ETP T-ALL treated with dasatinib plus 4-drug induction compared to those treated with 4-drug induction in CCCG-ALL-2020 (time frame: The expected study duration is approximately 5 years.). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06855810, which also lists 35 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
