Scientists hunt for genetic clues in childhood leukemia

NCT ID NCT03735797

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at genetic changes in cancer stem cells from children and young adults with acute leukemia. Researchers will analyze bone marrow or blood samples to find gene patterns that may drive the disease. The goal is to better understand leukemia and potentially discover new targets for future treatments.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this research could identify new genetic targets for future leukemia treatments.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It is small (50 participants) and may not lead to direct therapies.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study team will enroll approximately 50 subjects (age 1 month to 30 years) with newly diagnosed or relapsed acute leukemia.

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Newly diagnosed or relapsed acute leukemia (AML or ALL) * Plan to undergo diagnostic bone marrow aspirate or peripheral blood if clinically indicated (i.e. WBC\>50,000 and bone marrow contraindicated) * Age 1 month to 30 years * Understand and provide informed consent (subject if\>18, legal guardian if\<18) Exclusion Criteria: * Age 0 to 4 weeks * Treatment related leukemia or leukemia secondary to MDS * Situations that would limit compliance with study requirements or ability to willingly give consent
