Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Group 1 :2 doses of Zoledronic acid (0.025mg/kg/dose ,Intravenous infusion) will be administered to children more than 10 years of age at diagnosis of Acute lymphoblastic leukemia /lymphoblastic lymphoma. First dose will be administered on Day 8 of chemotherapy and second dose will be administered 6 weeks after that.Serial blood tests and radiological interventions will be carried out according to the protocol.
Group 2 : Includes children between 5-10 years of age.They do not get Zoledronic acid.Blood tests and radiological intervention will be carried out according to the prtocol.This is done to determine baseline incidence of osteonecrosis in this population.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 289501 0
To determine safety and feasibility of administering 2 doses of Intravenous Zoledronic acid to children, more than 10 years of age at diagnosis, with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and lymphoblastic lymphoma for prevention of symptomatic chemotherapy related osteonecrosis.
Blood tests and radiological investigations will be done at given time intervals.
Timepoint [1] 289501 0
Baseline
24 hours,48 hours,72hours after both interventions
At 4 months 1 year and 2 years after second dose of Zoledronic acid.
Secondary outcome [1] 302622 0
To determine effect of 2 doses of Zoledronic acid in children more than 10 years of age on development of symptomatic osteonecrosis.
MRI of hip and knee joints,X-rays of hips,knees and spine and pain scores(visual analogue scale) will be determined at set intervals.
Timepoint [1] 302622 0

Secondary outcome [2] 302623 0
To determine baseline incidence of symptomatic and asymptomatic osteonecrosis in children from 5 years-10 years of age.
MRI scans of hips and knee joints and X-rays of hips,knees and spine will be done at set interavals.
Timepoint [2] 302623 0
At 4 months, 1 year and 2 years from baseline
Secondary outcome [3] 302624 0

DEXA scans will be done at set intervals.
Timepoint [4] 302625 0
baseline,1 year and 2 years
Secondary outcome [5] 302626 0
