About this study

The purpose of the study is to determine the utility of XCL1 in the prognosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Read the detailed description

Each year approximately 256,000 children and adults around the world develop a form of leukemia, and 209,000 died from it. Recently, some studies have evaluated the relationship between the concentration of some cytokines and prognosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. XCL1 is a lymphotactin that belongs to a cytokine subfamily called C or γ with only one cysteine in the N-terminal residue. It has been found with significant expression of receptor mRNA XCL1 (XCR1) in T and B lymphocytes and related to hematological neoplasms. For these reasons, XCL1 could be a efficient marker of prognosis in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Acute Lymphoblastic LeukemiaWe will invite patients with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia in the Department of Hematology, who had not received anticancer therapy and regardless the subtype and immunophenotype of the disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with poor prognosis and high levels of XCL1

    Number of patients with high levels of XCL1, expression of its receptor and other cytokines.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Number of patients with poor prognosis and high levels of cytokines

    Measurements obtained will be evaluated to assess the prognosis of patients and made correlations with the concentration of IL-1β, IL-2 and XCL1 as well as the relationship XCR1 XCL1 and in leukemic cells.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, run by Hospital Universitario Dr. Jose E. Gonzalez at 1 site in Mexico.

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 1 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 27 Aug 2013. 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 Mexico. 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?

Number of patients with poor prognosis and high levels of XCL1 (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01380587, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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 27 Aug 2013.
