Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to use clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemias to screen for patient eligibility for available pediatric leukemia sub-trials. Testing bone marrow and blood from patients with leukemia that has come back after treatment or is difficult to treat may provide information about the patient's leukemia that is important when deciding how to best treat it, and may help doctors find better ways to diagnose and treat leukemia in children, adolescents, and young adults.

Description:

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. To utilize clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemias to screen for patient eligibility for available phase I/II Pediatric Acute Leukemia (PedAL) sub-trials.

II. To maintain a longitudinal and comprehensive registry from relapse in children and young adults with recurrent and refractory leukemia.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo collection of blood and/or bone marrow samples at baseline, end of treatment cycle(s), and at relapse/refractory disease status (if applicable).

After completion of study, patients are followed up every 3 months for 2 years, and then every 6 months for 3 years.

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Proportion of patients with identification of a priori specified genomic and immunophenotypic targets who enroll on a sub-trial	The proportion will be calculated as the percent of eligible patients who are identified to have an a priori specified genomic or immunophenotypic target and who enroll on at least one of the sub-trials. The corresponding confidence interval will be constructed.	Up to 5 years
