About this trial

In this study investigators will determine the feasibility of a future trial comparing chemotherapy-induced nausea control in children with ALL receiving oral 6-mercaptopurine who do and do not receive problem-solving skill training. This is a novel approach to controlling an important and common treatment-related symptom.

A future trial will be feasible if * 50% of patients deemed to be eligible to participate in Phase 1 consent/assent to participate * the recruitment into Phase 2 of 20 evaluable patients across all participating centers within 24 months of study activation of whom 80% return a completed CINV diary for at least 5 days of each 7-day data collection period. A completed CINV diary contains at least one PeNAT score and a record of the time of each vomiting episode or noting the presence/absence of vomiting daily. Evaluable patients are defined as those who have completed at least one cycle of PSST.
