Trial design
None/Not specified-controlled Phase III trial in Austria, Germany, Denmark and others.
- Comparator
- None/Not specified
- Biomarker Stratified
- True - Biomarker: ABL-class fusions (including BCR::ABL1 and ABL-class fusion genes such as ABL1, ABL2, CSF1R, PDGFRB). Strata: Ph+ (BCR::ABL1-rearranged) vs ABL-class Ph-like; within ABL-class Ph-like: PDGFRB fusion-positive vs PDGFRB fusion-negative (dictating imatinib vs dasatinib).
- Target Sample Size
- 87
Eligibility
Recruits 87 paediatric patients.
- Pregnancy Exclusion
- Pregnancy and breast feeding
- Vulnerable Population
- The trial includes children, adolescents and young adults (paediatric populations). Age-specific consent/assent materials are provided (multiple Subject Information Sheets and Informed Consent Forms for different age groups and for guardians are listed in the application documents, e.g. forms for children 6-11 yrs, 7-9, 10-13, 12-15, 14-17, 15-17, for patients ≥16 yrs, and guardian/parent consent forms). Guardians/parents provide consent for minors and age-appropriate assent/information is obtained from children and adolescents as per the age-specific ICF/SIS documents.

Recruitment
- Planned Sample Size
- 87
- Recruitment Window Months
- 60
- Consent Approach
- Informed consent is handled with age-specific information sheets and ICFs: guardians/parents provide consent for minors and age-appropriate assent/information is provided to children and adolescents. Multiple country- and age-specific SIS/ICF documents are submitted (e.g. forms for children 6-11 yrs, 7-9, 10-13, 12-15, 14-17, 15-17, patients ≥16 yrs, and guardian/parent consent forms). The protocol specifies use of Karnofsky performance score for patients >16 years and Lansky for patients ≤16 years.
