Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) is the most common adult blood cancer in the United Kingdom. CLL means that many cancer cells appear in the blood, bone marrow and other tissues, for example, the spleen where some blood cells reside. Most patients with CLL have been diagnosed by chance, have no symptoms as a result of CLL, and do not need urgent treatment. However, when the cancer cells build up, people experience symptoms of CLL, and treatment is required. One of the current treatments for CLL is chemo-immunotherapy, that targets and kills cancer cells in the blood. However, this treatment does not kill all cancer cells. Some cancer cells survive by 'hiding' in the bone marrow and tissues, like the spleen, where the treatment cannot get to, this is called minimal residual disease (MRD). MRD eventually builds up and patients experience symptoms of CLL again. New approaches to detect and treat MRD are needed. Research has shown, that the number of blood cells, increases after exercise and that many of these blood cells come from the bone marrow and other tissues. This study will investigate if exercise can move CLL cancer cells that are 'hiding' in the bone marrow and other tissues into the blood, thus improving the detection of MRD. By moving cancer cells into blood, the investigators also think this will improve the way chemo-immunotherapy works. In this study, the investigators will investigate the number of cancer and natural killer (NK) cells in the blood after exercise, in three different groups of people with CLL: before treatment; during treatment; and after treatment has finished.
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common pediatric malignancy, with the peak incidences occurring in children two to five years of age. Children with ALL received neurotoxic chemotherapy agents for two to three years that causes decreased distal muscle strength and poor timing of muscle activation. After completion of medical treatment, ALL childhood cancer survivors (ALL CCS) are more likely to have an inactive lifestyle, resulting in life-long gross motor proficiency differences compared to their peers. ALL CCS typically do not utilize physical therapists' expertise after medical treatment has been completed. There are limited physical therapy (PT) intervention studies for ALL CCS.
Assessment of of the biological effects of curcumin on microbiota in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia
Purpose: The present research was conducted to study the effect of treadmill training on balance after chemotherapy in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Subjects and Methods: Forty children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia included in the current research ranged of age from 8 to 12 years. The children participated in this study were assigned randomly into two equal number groups (A and B). Group (A) includes 20 children who received balance exercises, while group (B) includes 20 children who received the same balance exercises of group (A) and treadmill training. The treatment program was applied three sessions per week (60 min for every session) for 8 weeks. Balance Master System and Biodex Balance System were used to evaluate balance of all children in the three groups before and after the treatment program.
Assessment of SARS-CoV2 (mRNA and adenovirus-based vaccines) and Conjugated Pneumococcal (PCV13) in Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
A Multicenter Retrospective Study to understand the clinical characteristics, treatment pathway and resource utilization for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia A retrospective, multi-centre, observational study to describe disease characteristics, treatment patterns, treatment-related outcomes, and resource utilization for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients in multiple international regions
The purpose of this study is to provide treatment with lyophilized S95014 in pediatric patients with ALL who completed the CL2-95014-002 study during the induction phase and who are clinically benefitting from S95014 without major toxicity.
The purpose of this study is to compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of both lyophilized and liquid S95014 formulations during the induction phase after a single IV dose in newly diagnosed paediatric patients with ALL
PURPOSE: The purpose of the study is to determine the effects of 12-weeks of exercise training on physical reserve, as measured by aerobic capacity, strength and physical function, in patients with CLL. Further, it is our aim to assess relationships with changes in physical reserve and resilience to the patient's cancer, as measured by immune cell counts, tumor cell killing and antibacterial functions. DESIGN: Subjects will have confirmed treatment naïve CLL. Subjects will be assigned to either a 12-week control (no supervised exercise) or an intervention (HIIT) group. Before and after the 12 week program subjects will undergo several tests including: 1) a maximal treadmill test, 2) body composition, 3) muscle strength and endurance, 4) physical activity levels, 5) blood measures (e.g. immune and inflammatory functions). Subjects in the HIIT group will complete a 12-week supervised exercise training program consisting of HIIT and strength training. DATA ANALYSES & SAFETY ISSUES: This is a pilot study, with the goal of assessing whether exercise training causes a change in aerobic fitness (VO2peak), muscle function, and immunological measures. Vo2peak will be measured by a cardiopulmonary exercise test, muscle function will be measured by strength tests, and immunological functions will be measured from blood samples. For outcomes, group change differences from baseline to 12-weeks will be compared by ANCOVA. The data will be used to provide power calculations for future grant proposals. High Intensity Interval Training is a very safe exercise modality. The regular use of vigorous intensity exercise intervals have been used extensively in exercise training. In fact, the exercise intervals will start at levels lower and will be of shorter duration than were used during the maximal exercise test. They will then be carefully and slowly made to be more challenging as each subject is able to safely tolerate. HYPOTHESIS: The investigators hypothesize that HIIT will be a feasible exercise intervention for people with CLL and will result in improvements in markers of health and fitness.
