Active clinical trials for "Leukemia, Lymphocytic, Chronic, B-Cell"

The COVID-19 epidemic (Coronavirus Disease 2019) which is currently raging in France is an emerging infectious disease linked to a virus of the genus coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2). The first cases were reported in Wuhan, China, in late December 2019 [1]. Globally, it has been placed in the "pandemic" stage by the WHO since March 11, 2020. Coronavirus viruses have been responsible for epidemics in the past such as the SARS epidemic in 2002 (Syndrome Severe Acute Respiratory) linked to the SARS-CoV virus, or the epidemic of MERS (Middle East Respiratory Syndrome) that affected the Middle East in 2012. Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) / lymphocytic lymphoma or Waldenstrom Disease (WD) therefore represent a population at high risk of developing a severe form in the event of COVID-19 infection. To date, no data is available in the literature to assess the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic in this population of patients with CLL / lymphocytic lymphoma or WD.

300 patients, starting a new pharmacological treatment for B-CLL, were enrolled by 36 Italian Centres for assessing the Quality of Life (QoL). A descriptive analysis of QoL and the correlation of the age, sex, stage of disease, Time from first B-CLL diagnosis, Number of previous B-CLL treatments, reason of starting of the new B-CLL treatment: therapeutic Regimen, type of Centre, B-CLL treatment lasting, response to B-CLL treatment.

Magnetic nanoparticles coated with anti-EpCAM or anti-CD52 antibodies will be tested ex-vivo in patients blood .

This observational study will assess the health related quality of life (HQRL) profiles of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Using health assessment questionnaires, data will be collected from patients currently receiving therapy and from those who have finished therapy and have undergone an assessment of treatment.

The purpose of this study is to collect a blood sample in patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL).

This research study is collecting and storing tissue samples from patients with rare or cutaneous non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Collecting and storing samples of tissue from patients with cancer to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer in the future.

This trial studies financial difficulty in participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia and multiple myeloma. Assessment of financial difficulty may help to better understand the financial impact of cancer and come up with ways to help participants avoid financial problems during treatment.

The study aims at developing a model for the prediction of time to first treatment in chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients presenting with asymptomatic early stage disease

The Activity of Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) is studied.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia. B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (B-CLL) is the most prevalent leukemia in the Western Hemisphere, accounting for ~25% of all leukemia's. It represents a monoclonal expansion of small, long-lived, apparently slowly dividing CD5+ B cells. Because of the low proliferative index and a presumed uniform proliferative rate of B-CLL cells in vivo (a fact not yet tested or documented), B-CLL appears to be primarily a disease of accumulation rather than proliferation.
