About this study

Official title: Dysregulation of Hematopoiesis in Fanconi Anemia

RATIONALE: Analyzing tissue and blood samples from healthy volunteers or patients with Fanconi anemia, myelodysplasia, myeloproliferative disorders, or myeloma in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about the causes of blood cancers.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to analyze in the laboratory blood and bone marrow cells from healthy volunteers or patients with Fanconi anemia, myeloproliferative disorders, or myeloma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Identify the specific molecular function of the Fanconi anemia (FA) complementing gene products in hematopoietic progenitor cells from patients and normal volunteers.
  • Identify functional defects in hematopoietic stromal cells, including macrophages, from patients with FA, and selected blood cancers as well as normal volunteers.

OUTLINE: Peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes, skin fibroblasts, and marrow fibroblasts are collected for loss-of-function and gain-of-function analysis related to the Fanconi anemia complementing gene.

Being tested
microarray analysis, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, polymerase chain reaction, protein expression analysis, reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction
Keywords
Fanconi anemia, multiple myeloma and other plasma cell neoplasms, chronic myeloproliferative disorders, myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms
Medical subject headings
Myeloproliferative Disorders, Fanconi Anemia, Multiple Myeloma, Neoplasms, Plasma Cell, Myelodysplastic-Myeloproliferative Diseases

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Loss of function analyses

    Measured: Duration of the study

  2. Proteins binding to Fanconi anemia, complementation group C (FACC) gene-product by affinity chromatography of nuclear and whole cell lysates of normal cells

    Measured: Duration of the study

  3. Screening of proteins binding to FACC gene-product using monoclonal antibodies specific to signal transduction and cell cycle proteins

    Measured: Duration of the study

  4. Microsequencing of unique proteins

    Measured: Duration of the study

  5. Location of specific downstream block point imposed by antisense molecules using antibodies specific to signal transduction, cell cycle, or repair proteins for the FACC protein

    Measured: Duration of the study

  6. Affirmation that the block points identified are recapitulated in progenitor cells from peripheral blood

    Measured: Duration of the study

  7. Identification of functional defects in Fanconi anemia hematopoietic stromal cells

    Measured: Duration of the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Myeloproliferative Disorders and Fanconi Anemia, run by OHSU Knight Cancer Institute 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jul 2022. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Loss of function analyses (time frame: Duration of the study). The study lists 7 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 5 Jul 2022.
