About This Study
The purpose of this study is to learn if eating fewer calories and being more active during early leukemia treatment can help chemotherapy work better. The study also looks at whether a healthy diet and exercise plan can limit weight and body fat gain during treatment. This study is for volunteers who have been recently diagnosed with B‑cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B‑ALL) and are starting their first course of chemotherapy.
