Trial summary

Lymphoid hemopathies are a group of malignant haematological disorders characterized by clonal proliferation of cells of the lymphoid line. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and multiple myeloma (MM) are the most frequently encountered features of lymphoid hemopathies. Read more about this study

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

Study population: The study will be proposed to all the patients diagnosed with NHL, MM and CLL aged between 20 and 80 years old, without HIV infection and history of bone marrow transplant. If the patients agree to participate, a clinical research technician or a physician will give them a 2-hour questionnaire on their past occupational and exposures to toxic products. This filled questionnaire will then be interpreted by a specialized doctor to evaluate the exposition to each toxic products.

Who may be able to join

  • Incident cases of NHL, MM and CLL diagnosed in hospital hematology departments participating in the study.
  • Age between 20 and 80 years

Who cannot join

  • HIV infection
  • History of organ or marrow transplant

About this study

Lymphoid hemopathies are a group of malignant haematological disorders characterized by clonal proliferation of cells of the lymphoid line. Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and multiple myeloma (MM) are the most frequently encountered features of lymphoid hemopathies. Duriong the last 35 years the prevalence of these pathologies has increased in France but also in most industrialized countries. This increased can't be solely explained by demographic changes and improvements in diagnostic techniques. As a result, the involvement of environmental and professional factors is strongly suspected. Studies have shown that these diseases are associated with some professions or type of activity, including agricultural occupations, and other sectors such as agriculture, printing, woodworking. Some organic solvents and pesticides have been suspected of being risk factors of hematologic malignancies. Based on cohort studies and case-control studies, some of them have been identified by the International Cancer Research Center as associated with the occurrence of NHL with a sufficient or limited level of evidence. One of the difficulties encountered in the analysis of the literature has been the permanent evolution of the international classification of lymphoid hemopathies over the past 30 years. The old epidemiological studies are therefore difficult to interpret. Lymphoid hemopathies cover a range of different conditions, thus it is likely that carcinogens involved vary according to the type of hemopathy. Finally, environmental and occupational exposures to various chemicals and biological agents have evolved over time. The aim of this study is firstly to develop and validate a questionnaire to identify and quantify exposures to nuisances (substances and agents) suspected of being associated with the occurrence of NHL, MM and LLC. In a second time, this questionnaire will be used as a support for the realization of a subsequent case-control study to improve epidemiological knowledge on these diseases.

Read the detailed description

This study is a prospective, multicenter study on patients with a diagnosis of NHL, MM or CLL. All the patients with a diagnosis of NHL, MM or CLL in the participant centers will be purposed to participate. Each patient included will have an interview with a clinical study technician or doctor of occupational medicine. A specific detailed questionnaire has been created for the study. It focuses on specialized professional careers to spread occupational exposures to nuisances (substances and agents) suspected of being associated with NHL, MM or LLC risk. Each questionnaire will be evaluated by a physician expert in occupational disease, to conclude on the parameters exposure to the various suspected carcinogens. The study will cover 300 patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. ability of the questionnaire to identify occupational carcinogenic exposures

    included patient will complete a questionnaire (duration: 2 hours). this questionnaire will be interpreted by an expert physician in occupational diseases

    Measured: day 1

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Acceptability of the questionnaire by patients

    Measured: day 1

  2. Determination of the number of subjects recorded as suffering of an occupational disease

    Measured: day 1

  3. Professional sectors concerned by each nuisance

    Measured: day 1

  4. Activities concerned by each nuisance

    Measured: day 1

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non Hodgkin Lymphoma and Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, run by Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal Creteil at 7 sites 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 2 inclusion and 2 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 9 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 sites 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?

ability of the questionnaire to identify occupational carcinogenic exposures (time frame: day 1). 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 9 Feb 2023.
