About this study

Official title: The Role of Gut Microbiota in Intestinal Barrier Damage in Acute Leukemia Patients Undergoing Inpatient Induction Chemotherapy

This is an observational study to collect stool, blood, and urine from acute leukemia patients undergoing induction chemotherapy in order to generate preliminary data regarding the association between microbiota and chemotherapy-induced gut barrier damage. This study consists of inpatient collections of blood, urine, and stool while the patients are undergoing inpatient induction therapy. Patients will not be scheduled for any additional procedures or testing beyond what is required for clinical care.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Variation of Gut Microbiota Composition and Diversity

    Variation of gut microbiota composition and diversity, as determined by 16s rRNA sequencing of serial stool samples, during induction chemotherapy in acute leukemia patients.

    Measured: Three times weekly until day 28 of chemotherapy.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Variation of Gut Barrier Integrity

    Variation of gut barrier integrity, as determined by serum levels of zonulin, I-FABP, and citrulline, during induction chemotherapy in acute leukemia patients

    Measured: Three times weekly until day 28 of chemotherapy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chemotherapy-Induced Gut Barrier Damage and Acute Leukemia, run by Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 0 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 6 May 2019. 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 United States. 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?

Variation of Gut Microbiota Composition and Diversity (time frame: Three times weekly until day 28 of chemotherapy.). 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 NCT03316456, 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 May 2019.
