Leukemia Clinical Trial
Official title:
A Study of the Mechanisms of Intrinsic and Acquired Methotrexate Resistance in Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia
RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help
doctors learn more about cancer and the development of drug resistance in patients.
PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at resistance to methotrexate in patients with
acute lymphoblastic leukemia in relapse or remission.
OBJECTIVES:
- Determine the mechanisms of intrinsic and acquired methotrexate resistance using in
vitro assays of matched initial diagnosis, relapsed, and nonrelapsed (control) leukemic
blast samples from patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia in relapse or remission.
- Determine if the mechanisms of acquired methotrexate resistance are related to dosage
or timing of methotrexate administration or other clinical factors in these patients.
OUTLINE: Random samples of frozen leukemic blasts from relapsing patients at initial
diagnosis and relapse are selected. A corresponding sample from nonrelapsing patients
(control) at initial diagnosis is also randomly selected.
Reduced folate carrier (RFC) and dehydrofolate reductase (DHFR) expression is measured using
a quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction assay of prepared RNA. DHFR
gene amplification is measured by a dot blot analysis of prepared DNA. Results of these
assays are used to determine if a particular mechanism of acquired methotrexate resistance
is associated with a particular subset of acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. Data are
collected regarding the actual timing and dosage of methotrexate received by each patient
and are correlated with the mechanisms of resistance.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 135 paired samples will be accrued for this study.
