Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. Evaluate the impact of Calaspargase Pegol (Cal-PEG) on the coagulation system in pediatric ALL patients. II. Compare bleeding and thrombotic events associated with Cal-PEG to historical controls treated with pegaspargase. OUTLINE: This is an observational study. Patients undergo collection of blood samples and have their medical records reviewed on study.
