Combination Chemotherapy Followed by Peripheral Stem Cell Transplantation in Treating Children With Relapsed Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Leukemia

In brief

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop cancer cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combination chemotherapy followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating children who have relapsed acute lymphocytic leukemia.
