This was a continuous, intensive leukaemia type regimen including cranial irradiation (18 Gy in 10 fractions) and continuing chemotherapy for 2 years identical to the concurrent Medical Research Council ALL protocol. Four‐year event‐free survival was 65 (95 CI 5040) with no significant difference between stage I11 and stage IV cases. 4.2 of patients died of infection or non‐tumour related events.
