Recent trials show 5-year survival rates >95% for ETV6::RUNX1 Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL). Since treatment has many side effects, an overview of cumulative drug doses and intensities between eight international trials is presented to characterize therapy needed for cure. A meta-analysis was performed as a comprehensive summary of survival outcomes at 5 and 10 years. For drug dose comparison in non-high risk trial arms, risk group distribution was applied to split the trials into two groups: trial group A with ~70% (range: 63.5-75%) of patients in low risk (LR) (CCLSG ALL2004, CoALL 07-03, NOPHO ALL2008, UKALL2003) and trial group B with ~45% (range: 38.7-52.7%) in LR (AIEOP-BFM ALL 2000, ALL-IC BFM ALL 2002, DCOG ALL10, JACLS ALL-02). Meta-analysis did not show evidence of heterogeneity between studies in trial group A LR and medium risk (MR) despite differences in treatment intensity. Statistical heterogeneity was present in trial group B LR and MR. Trials using higher cumulative dose and intensity of asparaginase and pulses of glucocorticoids and vincristine showed better 5-year event-free survival but similar overall survival. Based on similar outcomes between trials despite differences in therapy intensity, future trials should investigate, to what extent de-escalation is feasible for ETV6::RUNX1 ALL.

Relapse remains the major cause of treatment failure in children with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-SCT). Prognosis is considered dismal but data on risk factors and outcome are lacking from prospective studies. We analysed 242 children with recurrence of ALL after first allo-SCT enrolled in the Berlin-Frankfurt-Munster (BFM) ALL-SCT-BFM 2003 and ALL-SCT-BFM international 2007 studies. Median time from allo-SCT to relapse was 7·7 months; median follow-up from relapse after allo-SCT until last follow-up was 3·4 years. The 3-year event-free survival (EFS) was 15% and overall survival (OS) was 20%. The main cause of death was disease progression or relapse (86·5%). The majority of children (48%) received salvage therapy without second allo-SCT, 26% of the children underwent a second allo-SCT and 25% received palliative treatment only. In multivariate analyses, age, site of relapse, time to relapse and type of salvage therapy were identified as significant prognostic factors for OS and EFS, whereas factors associated with first SCT were not statistically significant. Combined approaches incorporating novel immunotherapeutic treatment options and second allo-SCT hold promise to improve outcome in children with post allo-SCT relapse.
