Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid, Acute"

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood, tissue, and bone marrow from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn about changes that occur in RNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research trial studies RNA samples from patients with Down syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia or other transient myeloproliferative disorder.

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood, tissue, and bone marrow from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research trial studies DNA samples from patients with Down syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia treated on COG-AAML0431 clinical trial.

These laboratory trial studies the development and treatment of a mouse model for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) using samples from younger patients with AML. Studying tissue samples from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about cancer and how well patients will respond to treatment.

RATIONALE: Diagnostic procedures, such as genetic testing, may improve the ability to detect acute myeloid leukemia and determine the extent of disease. PURPOSE: Diagnostic study to try to detect changes in the genes of patients who have acute myeloid leukemia.

Application of a therapeutic platelet transfusion Regimen in patients with acute myeloid leukemia in complete Remission (consolidation therapy)

This clinical study will demonstrate the accuracy of the chromosomal aberration and gene mutation markers of the AMLProfiler molecular diagnostic assay and generate clinical performance data to support a Pre-Market Approval (PMA) submission to the Food and Drug Administration for in vitro diagnostic use within the United States of America. The objective is to demonstrate the positive and negative percent agreement of each marker by comparing AMLProfiler results from multiple clinical participating sites with data generated using a laboratory developed bi-directional sequencing method generated at the molecular diagnostic reference lab. The AMLProfiler assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the detection of AML or APL specific chromosomal aberrations (specific recurrent translocations and inversions), as well as expression of specific genetic markers in RNA extracted from bone marrow aspirates of patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

This is a non-interventional multi-center study (NIS) in adult patients with AML in first complete remission with measurable minimal residual disease (MRD). Patients are eligible when gene status was already determined for previous induction and consolidation therapy of AML and showed carrier of NPM1, CBFβ-MYH11, or MLL-AF9 mutation. The study objective is to observe the impact of pre-emptive therapy with histamine dihydrochloride (HDC) and interleukin-2 (IL-2) with regard to assess leukemia-free survival/time to relapse and to monitor MRD level trend over time. HDC and IL-2 are approved drugs for AML patients in first complete remission. Therapy is administered for 10 treatment cycles as outlined in the Summary of Product Characteristics.

This is a prospective, observational study to establish the connection between periodontitis and BSI in AML patients planning to receive intensive chemotherapy.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the overall and disease free survival of recipients who have received G-CSF mobilized stem cells from HLA matched sibling donors.
