mAALL1131 with imatinib - Consolidation for CNS1/2+ (LEU ALL precursor B-cell BCR-ABL1+ - modified AALL1131 with imatinib)
Treatment Overview
Use Consolidation regimen specific for CNS status of patient. Intrathecal therapy in this regimen intended for patients with CNS1+ or 2+ disease.
Starts on day 36 of Induction or on count recovery, whichever occurs later.
Day 29 of this cycle should be delayed if necessary until count recovery.
Count recovery is defined as:
- Neutrophils greater than 0.75 x 109/L, and
- Platelets greater than 75 x 109/L.
Cycle 1 - 56 days
Day 29 should be delayed if necessary until count recovery, with neutrophils greater than 0.75 x 109/L and platelets greater than 75 x 109/L.
imatinib: Take continuously during treatment, dose reduction may be required based on individual patient tolerability.
cytarabine: Administer by subcutaneous injection (as above), or alternatively administer intravenously as per institutional practice.
mercaptOPURine: Consider thiopurine methyltransferase (TPMT) testing and NUDT15 screening for specific patients.
Intrathecal metHOTREXATe: For Ommaya reservoir reduce dose to 6 mg intraventricularly.
pegaspargase:
- Reduce dose for patients 22 years of age or over and cap dose for obesity, see Additional details.
- Monitor patients for one hour after administration of pegaspargase in a setting with resuscitation equipment and other agents necessary to treat anaphylaxis (e.g. adrenaline, oxygen, intravenous steroids, antihistamines).
- See also Additional details for Further information on pegaspargase.

Additional details
Section 1: Age and weight dose adjustments for pegaspargase
Patients 22 years of age and over: Reduce dose of pegaspargase to 2000 international units/m2 .
Cap pegaspargase dose at 3750 international units flat dose for obesity, defined as:
- BMI 95% or greater for patients less than 20 years of age, or
- BMI 30 or greater for patients 20 years of age and over.
Section 2: Further information on pegaspargase
- Pegaspargase (and asparaginase products) should only be administered by centres with appropriate expertise.
- Prior to using pegaspargase perform a baseline abdominal ultrasound scan is recommended to examine the biliary tract, pancreas and hepatic echotexture. Pegasparagase is contraindicated in those with a history of severe significant hepatic impairment, including alcoholic liver disease, autoimmune or viral hepatitis, and steatohepatitis/NASH.
- If after pegaspargase there is any evidence of steatosis/liver disease, perform an ultrasound of the liver.
- Development of anti-asparaginase antibodies may be associated with low asparaginase activity levels. As a precaution, periodic measurement of the asparaginase activity level in serum or plasma is recommended
- Routine monitoring for bone marrow suppression, coagulations abnormalities, pancreatitis, hepatic toxicity, hyperuricaemia, hyperglycaemia, ketoacidosis and hypertriglyceridaemia is required. See Additional information - pegaspargase.
- To reduce risk of hypersensitivity to pegaspargase avoid using other pegylated products e.g. pegFILGRASTIM if there is a suitable non-pegylated form.
Supportive Care Factors
Factor | Value |
---|---|
Antifungal prophylaxis: | Routine antifungal prophylaxis recommended |
Antiviral prophylaxis for herpes virus: | Routine antiviral prophylaxis recommended |
Constipation risk: | Variable |
Diarrhoea risk: | Variable |
Emetogenicity: | Variable |
Hypersensitivity / Infusion related reaction risk: | High - routine premedication recommended |
Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) prophylaxis: | Routine antibiotic prophylaxis recommended |
Antifungal prophylaxis: Inhibition of CYP3A4 by azole antifungals may lead to reduced vinCRISTine and imatinib clearance and increased toxicities. Consider using a non-azole antifungal for prophylaxis. If an azole is used the imatinib dose must be reduced – consult prescribing information.
Antiviral prophylaxis for hepatitis B virus: Guidance is limited to high-risk anti-cancer medicines. Clinicians will need to assess individual patient risk for other anti-cancer medicines.
Diarrhoea/Constipation risk: imatinib may cause diarrhoea and vinCRISTine may cause constipation. Monitor gastrointestinal symptoms.
Emetogenicity:
- MEDIUM days 1 and 29;
- imatinib: MEDIUM to HIGH > 400 mg; MINIMAL to LOW ≤ 400 mg; however, based on New Zealand clinical experience emetogenicity for imatinib doses greater than 400 mg may also only be Minimal to low.
