Scientists probe link between cancer treatment and new blood cancers

NCT ID NCT06510868

Summary

This study aims to understand if a targeted radiation therapy for neuroendocrine tumors (PRRT) increases the risk of patients later developing serious blood cancers like myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Researchers will collect and analyze blood samples from 45 patients before and after treatment to look for genetic clues that might predict this risk. The goal is to learn how to better select patients for this therapy and potentially find ways to prevent this severe side effect.
