Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 80 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study population will include non-M3 AML (including first relapsed and primary refractory AML) and high-risk MDS, MPN, and MF adult patients considered for chemotherapy at FHCRC and the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance Network and other Core institutions (Stanford School of Medicine, Cleveland Clinic, Northwestern University, University of Utah, University of Pennsylvania, Washington University in St. Louis, Roswell Park Cancer Institute, Hackensack University, University of Maryland, and Duke University).

Who may be able to join

  • Patients with new diagnoses of non-M3 AML or high-risk MDS, myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN), or myelofibrosis (MF) (showing 10% or more blasts in bone marrow) who:
  • Present for an AML-like treatment that could plausibly produce a complete remission (CR); for example intensive induction chemotherapy, low dose single agent chemotherapy, hypomethylation agent, or a similar therapy
  • Possibility to retrieve follow-up records from the collaborating institution or treating primary care physician
  • Patients with primary refractory or first relapse presenting for salvage chemotherapy will be allowed
  • Patients of 18 years of age or older, and are being treated by the adult AML service.
  • Able to speak and read English.
  • Willing and able to provide informed consent.

Who cannot join

  • Patients of ≤17 years of age or who are 18 or older and receive treatment under the pediatric AML service.
  • Patients older than 80 years
  • Patients with <6 months projected survival due to active second malignancy or other medical problem.

About this study

Official title: Feasibility and Outcomes of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) Compared to Conventional Therapy for Older and Medically Infirm Patients Diagnosed With Acute Myeloid Leukemia or High-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes: A Prospective Observational Study

The purpose of this study is to compare treatment methods and outcomes of patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS).

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective multicenter observational study in a Consortium of collaborating institutions investigating how often older and medically infirm patients who are diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or high-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and treated with induction chemotherapy undergo allogeneic HCT. Investigators will look at the rate of undergoing allogeneic HCT among older and medically infirm AML and high-risk MDS patients compared to younger and relatively healthier patients. Investigators will also compare the characteristics and outcomes of patients who did versus did not proceed to allogeneic HCT. A number of outcomes will be assessed including mortality, morbidity, and quality of life (QOL). Baseline information will be collected on different domains of QOL, geriatric assessment, health status measures, AML features, and socioeconomic status. Information will help physicians and patients to decide on best treatment choices for AML and high-risk MDS in older and medically infirm patients.

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?

Percentage Analyzed Participants Receiving Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HCT) (time frame: 1 year after starting induction). 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 NCT01929408, which also lists 2 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?
