Inclusion Criteria:

* Newly diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) - no prior treatment for ALL
* Receiving asparaginase as part of the primary treatment regimen
* Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent

About the study

This pilot trial studies the impact of genetic information on developing liver damage caused by asparaginase in participants with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Testing saliva samples may help doctors find certain genetic markers that may predict whether participants will tolerate asparaginase, which is given as part of clinical care for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
