Completed
Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
Phase 2

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing
so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more cancer cells.
PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy in treating
patients who have acute B-lymphoblastic leukemia or recurrent non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Stem Cell Transplantation Compared With Standard Chemotherapy in Treating Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in First Remission
Completed
Medical Research Council
Phase 3
1993-04-01
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop cancer cells from
dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with allogeneic or autologous
stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and
kill more cancer cells. It is not yet known whether stem cell transplantation is more
effective than standard chemotherapy in treating acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase III trial is studying how well stem cell transplantation works
compared to standard combination chemotherapy in treating patients with acute lymphoblastic
leukemia in first remission.
