Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Myeloid"

Cancer patients in clinical trials donate various human samples (e.g., serum, plasma, blood, urine, feces, bile, saliva) for research purposes. The purpose of this study is to conduct further analyses on these existing samples from clinical trials that are being performed outside of, but in collaboration with, the National Cancer Institute.

study of the value of the cytogenetics and the monitoring of the residual minimum disease in the standard treatment of acute myeloblastic leukemia.

Rationale: At present, virtually no evidence exists regarding mid to long-term patient-reported health outcomes (e.g., health related quality of life-HRQOL) of CML patients treated with Imatinib. Purpose: the results of this research will provide preliminary evidence-based data on an number of issues from the patients' perspective, including adherence to therapy issues.

The present study is not hypothesis driven but will explore the ability of pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic modelling to predict optimal dosage of the chemotherapeutic drugs used in therapy in adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

There are naturally occuring variations in the genetic makeup of all of us. Some of these variations may contribute to a change in susceptibility toward different diseases or change the prognosis. We are studying these genetic variations in patients with leukemia. The genes we are studying are those which influence detoxification of drugs and toxins.

This study to find out more about how patients take their anticancer medications and challenges related to taking cancer medications.

Treatment for pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) involves intensive chemotherapy regimens that result in periods of profound neutropenia leaving patients susceptible to severe infectious complications. Infectious complications are the leading cause of treatment related mortality among AML patients, but there are little clinical data to inform whether management of neutropenia post AML chemotherapy should occur in an outpatient or inpatient setting. Further, no studies have been conducted that assess the impact of neutropenia management strategy on the quality of life of pediatric patients with AML and their caregivers.

The study was a retrospective, non-interventional patient chart review and used a panel of oncologists/hematologists from the US to collect real-world clinical outcomes of patients with CML-CP in 3L+ and those with the T315I mutation.

This is a retrospective, translational, epidemiologic, multicenter, non-interventional study (No EPA study) to provide insights into disease epidemiology, disease biology, treatment regimens, and clinical outcomes of patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML) in routine clinical practice according to their molecular markers. The primary objective of the study is to describe the use of the main molecular markers (FLT3 and NPM1) in the real-life according of the type of AML, treating institution, patients' characteristics, and disease status.

Retrospective, non-interventional observational cohort study conducted among patients with CML.
