Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

The aim of this study is to look for predisposing mutations in patients and relatives affected by AML and MDS with familial history of myeloid or, less frequently, lymphoid malignancies. Taking advantage of a next generation sequencing (NGS) platform, screening for known and unknown mutations potentially associated with the disease will be done. The screening will be performed on affected and unaffected family members, in order to outline new pedigrees that either validate previous findings or constitute novel discoveries.

A retrospective study using a new technology will be performed: the Optical Genome Mapping (OGM) on acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) samples stored at the CRB-Cancer of the Bordeaux University Hospital and annotated in the DATAML clinical database. The main objective is to estimate the proportion of AML patients for whom OGM detects at least one additional abnormality compared to conventional techniques. This study will constitute an important step in the validation of COA as a reference technique for cytogenetic analysis in AML, replacing the classical techniques, and could also constitute a first argument for redesigning the prognostic classification of AML.

This phase II trial studies fluorothymidine F 18 (FLT) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in measuring response in patients with previously untreated acute myeloid leukemia. FLT is a radioactive substance that may "light up" where cancer is in the body. FLT is injected into the blood and builds up in cells that are dividing, including cancer cells. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/CT, may help measure a patient's response to earlier treatment.

This pilot phase I trial studies how well positron emission tomography (PET)/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), fludeoxyglucose F-18 (18F-FDG) PET/computed tomography (CT), and whole body MRI work in finding extramedullary myeloid leukemia in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. Extramedullary myeloid leukemia is a type of cancer found outside of the bone marrow and can be hard to detect with routine bone marrow monitoring, such as bone marrow aspirations. Diagnostic procedures, such as PET/MRI, 18F-FDG PET/CT and whole body MRI, may help find and diagnose extramedullary myeloid leukemia in patients with newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia.

Purpose: The purpose of this trial is to investigate whether a digital array assay can detect trace amounts of residual leukemia and predict relapse in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients in remission who have undergone allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) at the North Carolina Cancer Hospital (NCCH). Participants: Adult patients (18 years of age or older) with diagnosed AML who are going to undergo stem cell transplant (SCT). Procedures (methods): A total of 10 eligible subjects will be treated per standard of care with SCT. Peripheral blood and bone marrow aspirate (10 mL each) for digital array assay analysis will be collected along with routine lab draws and bone marrow biopsy procedures prior to SCT. Beginning 1 month after SCT peripheral blood (10 ml) will be collected to assess MRD by digital array assay analysis on a monthly basis for up to 6 months. In addition, bone marrow aspirate will be collected at approximately Month 3 and 6 following SCT for assay analysis. Patient medical records will be reviewed 6 and 12 months after completing their last MRD follow up assessment to confirm survival status, remission status, and gather information related to relapse.

In this study, we aim to investigate the expression of CKLF like MARVEL transmembrane domain containing 6 (CMTM6) in leukemia cells of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We will use peripheral blood samples and assess CMTM6 expression by flow cytometry and Western Blot.

Background Hematological diseases are disorders of the blood and hematopoietic organs. The current hematological cohorts are mostly based on single-center or multi-center cases, or cohorts with limited sample size in China. There is a lack of comprehensive and large-scale prospective cohort studies in hematology. The purpose of this study is to analyze the incidence and risk factors of major blood diseases, the treatment methods, prognosis and medical expenses of these patients in China. Method The study will include patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma, hemophilia, aplastic anemia, leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, lymphoma, bleeding disorders or received bone marrow transplantation in the investigating hospitals from January 1, 2020, and collect basic information, diagnostic and treatment information, as well as medical expense information from medical records. In its current form, the NICHE registry incorporates historical data (collected from 2000) and is systematically collecting prospective data in two phases with broadening reach. The study will use questionnaire to measure the exposure of patients, and prospectively follow-up to collect the prognosis information.

Registry Study on Patient Characteristics, Biological Disease Profile and Clinical Course in the Treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia With Venetoclax

This study is being performed to develop assays to determine the impact of the therapy patients receive for treatment of AML or MDS and to determine if these tests can identify those patients who are at a greater risk for having their disease relapse.

The goal of this study is to create a data set to add to Carevive's registry from real world clinical and patient reported data collected using an electronic care planning system (CPS) with remote symptom monitoring that is used in routine care for cancer patients on active treatment. Patients will complete a baseline survey in person using a secured device or remotely using their own electronic device in a location of their choice. Weekly electronic patient reported outcome (PRO) surveys are collected from the patients using the Carevive platform for a minimum of 12 weeks. Patients may continue weekly surveys as long as they are receiving treatment.
