Study population: Diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia.

DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:

  • Diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
  • Non-M3 AML
  • Cryopreserved bone marrow mononuclear cell specimens from patients enrolled on COG-AAML03P1 and COG-AAML0531 collected prior to cytarabine-based induction therapy
  • Patient samples from COG-AAML0531 must come from the control arm (i.e., no gemtuzumab ozogamicin induction therapy)

PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS:

  • No Down syndrome

About this study

Official title: Validation of a Classifier for Induction Response Prediction Using Single Cell Network Profiling (SCNP) Assays for Childhood AML

RATIONALE: Studying samples of bone marrow from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors predict how well patients will respond to treatment.

PURPOSE: This research trial is studying biomarkers in predicting response to treatment in bone marrow samples from young patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To validate the accuracy of a pre-specified acute myeloid leukemia (AML) induction response classifier or the My Profile™ AML Induction Therapy Assay (run in a Good Laboratory Practice [GLP] laboratory using Good Manufacturing Practice [GMP] reagents) in predicting response to cytarabine-based induction chemotherapy in pediatric patients with non-M3 AML.

Secondary

  • To validate the continuous score from the pre-specified induction response classifier as a predictor of response to induction chemotherapy, after controlling for the simultaneous effects of clinical variables at base-line and/or pre-induction therapy (e.g., age, WBC, and percentage [%] of blasts), and tests commonly available after the start of induction therapy (e.g., cytogenetics and molecular markers).
  • To validate the accuracy of the pre-specified induction response classifier as a binary predictor of induction response using a pre-specified cutpoint to assign patients to no response (NR) or complete response (CR) groups.
  • To validate the accuracy of the pre-specified induction response classifier as a binary predictor of induction response using a pre-specified cutpoint to assign patients to NR or CR groups, after controlling for the simultaneous effects of clinical variables at base-line (pre-induction therapy) (e.g., age, WBC, % blasts) and clinical variables, including tests commonly available after start of induction therapy (e.g., age, WBC, cytogenetics).

OUTLINE: Cryopreserved bone marrow mononuclear cell specimens are analyzed by cell networking profiling assays. Results are then compared with patient outcomes and demographics from COG-AAML03P1 and COG-AAML0531 studies.

Molecular markers analyzed include Flt3ITD, NPM1, CEBPA, and MRA.

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?

Accuracy of induction response prediction. 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; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
