ISRCTN ISRCTN77346223
DOI 10.1186/ISRCTN77346223
ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT00002514
EudraCT number 2005-006181-31
Public title Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) trial XII (joint trial with Eastern Co-operative Oncology Group - E2993)
Scientific title
Acronym UKALLXII
Serial number at source G8223452, MREC/02/2/84
Study hypothesis 1. To compare effects of marrow ablative therapy using VP16 and total body irradiation followed by autologous bone marrow rescue (ABMT or Peripheral Stem Cell Rescue) with conventional consolidation and maintenance chemotherapy in adult patients between 15 and 55 years who have no HLA compatible donor
2. To examine (in a non-randomised study) differences in outcome in adult ALL in those patients who have an HLA compatible donor, who will be allocated allogeneic BMT versus those with a donor randomised to autologous BMT or conventional chemotherapy
3. To compare the outcome of the above three treatments or matched unrelated donor BMT in patients with Philadelphia chromosome positive disease and to examine the efficacy of additional Interferon during maintenance chemotherapy or after BMT
