About this study

It is now accepted that the anticancer properties of anthracyclines were allowed in many malignancies improve the prognosis of affected populations.

However, the cardiotoxicity of anthracyclines is responsible for an interruption of this treatment by alteration of potentially irreversible myocardial contraction and high mortality.

An earlier detection of adverse myocardial anthracycline chemotherapy would allow the adaptation of the regimen by reducing the number of interruptions of antitumor and strengthening monitoring. Optimizing the therapeutic antitumor and generate an increase in survival of patients treated.

Read the detailed description

Analysis of myocardial deformation in its longitudinal component, circumferential and radial, is a new echocardiographic technique for evaluating myocardial function, which has demonstrated its superiority compared to LVEF in many clinical situations. It therefore seems promising to evaluate this new tool in the earlier detection of adverse myocardial chemotherapy with anthracyclines. The ultimate goal is indeed to determine a reliable and reproducible parameter for cardiac toxicity diagnostic to avoid chemotherapy interruption, thus improving the survival of these patients.

The main objective of this project is to evaluate the association between changes in myocardial deformation longitudinal 2D strain echocardiography between baseline and 6 weeks after initiation of anthracycline therapy for acute leukemia and the occurrence of impaired left ventricular function within 12 months after starting treatment.

It is a prognostic study of clinical-looking, without randomization. The inclusion will take place over a period of 12 months with a total follow-up of 12 months.

The analysis will focus on the identification of parameters predictive of alteration of Fe VG.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Echographic analysis of myocardial deformation in 2D strain in people with Leukemia and Cardiac Toxicity, run by University Hospital, Bordeaux at 1 site in France.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. 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 28 May 2026. 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 France. 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?

determination of longitudinal myocardial deformation by echography with 2D strain analysis after 6 weeks of anthracycline chemotherapy. (time frame: 6 weeks). The study lists 5 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 28 May 2026.
