Background: The objectives of this study were to describe the impact of trial enrollment at diagnosis on event-free and overall survival in paediatric acute lymphoblastic leukaemic (ALL) using a population-based approach.Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study that included children newly diagnosed with ALL between 1 and 14 years of age. The data source was the Cancer in Young People in Canada (CYP-C) national paediatric cancer population-based database. We conducted univariate and multiple Cox proportional hazards models.Results: There were 2569 children with ALL; 1408 (54.8%) were enrolled on a clinical trial at initial diagnosis. Event-free survival at 5 years was 89.8% +/- 0.9 vs 84.1% +/- 1.2. (P
