Urban Environmental Exposures and Childhood Cancer

Brain CancerAcute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

The Environmental Protection Agency has recognized that organophosphorus pesticides require close regulation and continued monitoring for human health effects and some (e.g chlorpyrifos) have been phased-out from the consumer market due to the special risk that it posed for children. There is growing evidence in support of the association between pesticide exposure and childhood leukemia. Studies of pesticides and their association with childhood cancer have been limited by study designs, self-reporting and lack of biological measurements. While several large studies in California found little evidence of an association between agricultural pesticide use and childhood leukemia, these results are in contrast with the associations observed with household exposures to pesticides. The real association may depend on timing of exposure, type of pesticide, dose and pathway of exposure. Furthermore, some persons may be more susceptible to the effects of specific pesticides due to inherited mutations in their detoxification pathways. We are conducting a pilot study to test the hypothesis that environmental exposure to pesticides in pregnancy or during the neonatal period, together with genetic susceptibility may lead to childhood ALL or brain cancer. The study is a multicenter, case-control study, based on collaboration between clinical researchers and basic science research to evaluate the risk for childhood cancer in relation to measured levels of pesticides (and their metabolites) and genetic polymorphisms. Biomarkers will be used to examine the risks of chronic low-dose exposures, and to characterize relationships between specific pesticides, childhood cancer and genetic susceptibility. Hypothesis: Interaction between environmental factors (pesticides) and maternal or child genetic polymorphisms may lead to childhood cancer.

Studying DNA in Blood and Bone Marrow Samples From Young Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia...

Leukemia

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood 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. It may also help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment. PURPOSE: This research study is looking at DNA in blood and bone marrow samples from young patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Evaluate the Hematological Remission Rates and Survival Among Chinese Adult Patients With B-precursor...

B-precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Although the response rate by first-line treatment has been improved, most adult patients with relapsed or refractory ALL will eventually relapse with poor outcomes regardless of treatments. To further understand current status of the treatment of adult patients with relapsed or refractory ALL in China, the study retrospectively collected diagnosis and treatment data from ALL patients in 14 centers in China. Primary objective: to estimate the proportion of patients in overall response rate (ORR) for early relapsed or primary refractory Philadelphia chromosome negative (Ph-) B-precursor ALL patients following salvage treatment (i.e., proportion of patients in hematological complete remission [CR] and CR with partial recovery of blood cells [CRh*]); Secondary objectives included: to estimate the proportion of patients in CR, CRh* and CRi(CR/CRh*/CRi) and the duration of CR/CRh*/CRi, overall survival, duration of CR/CRh*and the proportion of patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AlloHSCT) for early relapsed/primary refractory Ph-B-precursor ALL patients following salvage treatment; Exploratory objectives included: to estimate the efficacy in late relapsed Ph- B-precursor ALL (first remission duration > 12 months) patients and in Ph+ B-precursor ALL patients and specific subgroup patients following salvage treatment.

Electrophysiological Biomarkers of Chemotherapy-related Cognitive Impairment and Recovery

Myelodysplastic SyndromeEffects of Chemotherapy7 more

Broadly speaking, the goal of this study is to better understand the influence of chemotherapy treatment on the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying human behavior. Extant literature lacks diversity in studied cancer populations and treatment protocols, and provides limited understanding of the cognitive abilities that are impaired by chemotherapy. To overcome these limitations, this study will employ a sophisticated battery of tests on an understudied cancer population. Eligible participants will either be patients diagnosed with hematological malignancy (HM) or demographically matched healthy control patients. After HM diagnosis and treatment protocols have been established, patients will be inducted into the longitudinal study comprised of three visits: 1) after diagnosis but prior to chemotherapy treatment (baseline), 2) after one treatment cycle (one month post-baseline), and 3) after three treatment cycles (three months post-baseline). Patients will undergo a test battery designed to measure specific behavioral and neural mechanisms of attention; tests will either be computer-based cognitive tasks or simulated driving tests that immerse patients into virtual driving scenarios. During each test, EEG will be concurrently measured through non-invasive scalp electrophysiology recordings; EEG recordings will reveal underlying neural mechanisms affected by chemotherapy. Additionally, neuropsychological tests of vision, attention, and memory will be administered, as well as questionnaires to evaluate health, mobility, and life space. Finally, blood samples will be collected to examine levels of circulating inflammation-specific proteins typically present in cancer patients. This study will allow us to better understand the mechanisms through which chemotherapy influences cognitive performance. Results from this study will influence the administration of chemotherapy treatments so that patients can continue to receive the highest medical care while maintaining optimal cognitive abilities and quality of life.
