Scientists track CLL Cells' fuel use to find metabolic weaknesses

NCT ID NCT04785989

First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 31 times

Summary

This study looks at how chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells use nutrients like glucose and glutamine compared to normal cells. Researchers will give participants a special drink with harmless tracers and then take blood samples to track the tracers. The goal is to find metabolic differences that could lead to new treatments. The study involves 16 adults: healthy volunteers and CLL patients with low disease burden.
