Trial summary

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a stem cell (SC) neoplasm which originates from an incomplete process of differentiation of the hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to the adult cells which lead to accumulation of their immature form into the BM and the peripheral blood. Read more about this study

About this study

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a stem cell (SC) neoplasm which originates from an incomplete process of differentiation of the hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to the adult cells which lead to accumulation of their immature form into the BM and the peripheral blood. It is characterized by the reciprocal translocation. The resulting oncoprotein, BCR/ABL1, is considered essential for the initiation and manifestation of the disease . In CML, leukemic stem cell (LSC) supposedly resides within the CD45+/ CD34+/CD38-/Lin- fraction of the leukemic clone (3). However, normal hematopoietic SC also exhibit this phenotype so that additional markers are required to discriminate CML LSC from normal SC. CD34+/CD38-/Lin- CML LSC specifically co-express dipeptidylpeptidase IV(DPPIV=CD26). This enzyme disrupts LSC-niche interactions by degrading stroma derived factor-1 (SDF-1). Moreover, CD26 is a robust biomarker for the quantification and isolation of CML LSC (4). It was reported that CD26+ LSCs were significantly correlated with BCR-ABL1 transcript level at diagnosis and after three months of treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) .

What is being measured

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

  1. Peripheral Blood Dipeptidylpeptidase IV (CD26)

    to detect CD26+ LSCs by flow cytometry for accurate diagnosis of CML patients from peripheral blood sample to reduce the need for Bone Marrow aspiration.

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, Chronic Phase, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2022. 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 Egypt. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Rowida Eid, Clinical Pathology Specialist (01002019899, rowaida-muhammad-post@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Peripheral Blood Dipeptidylpeptidase IV (CD26) (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT05543161, which also lists 4 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 16 Sep 2022.
