Study Summary

This trial is comparing how well two different combination chemotherapies work in treating patients with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or stage II-IV T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for young patients aged 1-30 with newly diagnosed T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia or stage II-IV T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. They must not have Down syndrome, uncontrolled seizures, a history of severe reactions to bortezomib or its components, be pregnant/breastfeeding, or have used certain medications recently.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if adding bortezomib to standard chemotherapy is more effective for treating T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. Patients are randomly assigned to receive either the usual chemotherapy alone or with bortezomib.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Bortezomib can cause side effects like nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, low blood counts increasing infection risk, nerve damage causing numbness or pain in hands/feet (neuropathy), and allergic reactions.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
