NCT ID NCT07174141

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study follows 100 people taking newer BTK inhibitor drugs (acalabrutinib or zanubrutinib) for blood cancers like leukemia or lymphoma. Researchers want to see how often these drugs cause high blood pressure or heart rhythm problems, and find early warning signs. Participants will have eye exams and blood tests over one year to track these risks.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors identify which patients are most at risk for heart problems from these newer cancer drugs, leading to better monitoring and care.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not find clear risk factors, and results may not apply to all patients.
