Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription

Hematological CRi was defined as no circulating lymphoblasts, ANC ˂1,000/μL, platelets ˂100K/μL.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription

NGS MRD is defined as non-detected if less than 1 in 1 x 10\^6 cells). Best response: CR or CRi achievement. CR was defined as no circulating lymphoblasts, ANC ≥1,000/μL, platelets ≥100K/μL. CRi was defined as no circulating lymphoblasts, ANC ˂1,000/μL, platelets ˂100K/μL.

NGS MRD is defined as non-detected if less than 1 in 1 x 10\^6 cells).
Duration of Response (DoR)Up to 5 years and 4 monthsDoR measured as the time from achievement of CR or CRi, whichever occurs first, to relapse or death due to acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at the time of data cut-off. CR was defined as no circulating lymphoblasts, ANC ≥1,000/μL, platelets ≥100K/μL. CRi was defined as no circulating lymphoblasts, ANC ˂1,000/μL, platelets ˂100K/μL.

Hematological CRi was defined as no circulating lymphoblasts, ANC ˂1,000/μL, platelets ˂100K/μL.
Proportion of Patients in Complete RemissionDay 28 ± 7 (Day 1 to Day 35), at Day 90 ± 30, by Day 90 ± 30 (Day 1 to Day 120), at Day 180 ± 30, by Day 180 ± 30 (Day 1 to Day 210), at Day 270 ± 30, by Day 270 ± 30 (Day 1 to Day 300), at Day 360 ± 30, by Day 360 ± 30 (Day 1 to Day 390)Proportion of patients in complete remission (as per peripheral blood and bone marrow, when both available). Complete Remission was defined as: * No circulating lymphoblasts or extramedullary disease * No lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, skin/gum infiltration, testicular mass, central nervous system (CNS) involvement. * Trilineage hematopoiesis (TLH) and \<5% blasts. * ANC ≥1000/μL. * Platelets ≥100,000/μL.
