About this study

Official title: Molecular Genetic Studies of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) With Normal Cytogenetics. A CALGB Leukemia Tissue Bank Project

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tissue and blood from patients with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at changes in the DNA of tissue samples that were collected from patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Validate, on the larger number of patients with karyotypically normal acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated uniformly on CALGB-19808, preliminary results from CALGB-9621 showing that BAALC and ERG overexpression and microarray gene-expression signatures can stratify the patients prognostically.
  • Establish whether microRNAs are differentially expressed in subsets of patients with AML and normal cytogenetics, and, if so, attempt to identify a signature that stratifies patients prognostically.
  • Explore the relative contribution in predicting clinical outcome of patients with cytogenetically normal AML using genetic markers such as BAALC, ERG, and EVI1 overexpression, MLL partial tandem duplication, FLT3 internal tandem duplication, NPM1 and CEBPA mutations, and microarray gene expression microRNA signatures.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter, pilot study.

Peripheral blood and bone marrow samples are analyzed to assess gene expression using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or reverse transcriptase-PCR assays and microarray assays. Genes to be studied include BAALC, ERB, EVI1, MLL, FLT3, NPM1, and CEBPA.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 100 patients will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Leukemia, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prognostic stratification of patients through BAALC and ERG overexpression and microarray gene-expression signatures (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Aug 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
