About this study

Official title: Biological Correlates With T-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (T-ALL) Gene Expression and Clinical Outcome

RATIONALE: Studying samples of bone marrow from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.

PURPOSE: This research study is studying biomarkers in bone marrow samples from patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To confirm an association between induction failure (IF) status predicted by a previously identified 116-member genomic classifier and actual induction therapy outcome observed on COG study AALL0434.
  • To explore whether there is an association between early relapse (as defined by bone marrow or extramedullary relapse within 18 months of diagnosis) predicted by previously identified 5-member (primary) and 57-member (secondary) genomic classifiers, and actual relapse status at 18 months on COG study AALL0434. (Exploratory)

OUTLINE: RNA from cryopreserved bone marrow samples are analyzed for gene expression by microarray methods. Samples are then compared with the 116-member genomic classifier.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Leukemia, run by Children's Oncology Group.

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 18 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Association between induction failure status predicted by 116-member genomic classifier and actual induction therapy outcome observed on COG study AALL0434. 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 18 May 2016.
