Background: acute lymphoblastic leukemia is the most common childhood cancer and relapse is the main reason for treatment failure in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The aim of this study: is to assess the relapse of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia in pediatric patients treated in the Child's Central Teaching Hospital/ Baghdad. Methods: A retrospective study that reviewed 521 children with newly diagnosed ALL for children below 15 years during the period from 1st of January 2013 to 1st of March 2020 in the hemato-oncology ward in the Child's Central Teaching Hospital in Baghdad, with a total duration of follow-up for two years post last starting treatment (till 1st of March 2022 ).
This research is being done to learn whether drug called itacitinib, which is a novel inflammation- and immune-lowering drug (immunosuppressant), can be given before and after non-myeloablative peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT; also known as a 'mini' transplant) to help prevent certain complications such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) for patients with blood cancers, using peripheral blood from a relative. The investigators will also examine if by using itacitinib the investigators can reduce the duration of MMF (other immune suppressive drug administration posttransplant).
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of an adapted psychosocial intervention, called Emotion and Symptom-focused Engagement for Caregivers (EASE-CG), to reduce traumatic stress symptoms and other psychological distress and increase well-being in primary caregivers of patients newly diagnosed with acute leukemia.
The purpose of this study is to describe the main clinical characteristics of patients with de novo acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated inside the third level hospitals converted to Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) attention for the metropolitan area of Mexico City.
This is a prospective, observational cohort study to assess the frequency with which neutropenic patients with hematologic malignancies and hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients are colonized with fluoroquinolone-resistant Enterobacterales (FQRE) and the clinical impact of FQRE colonization.
The purpose of this study is to estimate the potential benefit of early and continued palliative care (PC) consultation on end of life issues.
Many cancers are being treated more effectively nowadays due to the raised awareness and early detection as well as advancement in researches and technology. Despite the rising number of cancer survivors in the coming years, these survivors are still plagued by the poor quality of life due to physical and psychological impairment. According to the National Cancer Registry Report from 2007-2011, haematological cancer is one of the ten most common cancers in Malaysian population. Many haematological cancer survivors in Malaysia are reportedly having poor quality of life due to multiple physical and emotional impairments which leads to further disability in life. It is thus an important effort to identify the rehabilitation needs in these cancer survivors to implement alternatives to improve the disease outcome through cancer rehabilitation.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety, efficacy and Population Pharmacokinetics of Oral Posaconazole in Children with leukemia.
This study evaluates the feasibility of using two information technology tools in patients undergoing Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-cell (CART) therapy and other Cytokine Release Syndrome (CRS)-eliciting treatments such as CD123 BITE. The first is an Apple iPad® application called the BMT Roadmap, which shows information about the participant's health. The second is a wearable activity monitoring device. Health information technology tools such as Roadmap system and the activity monitoring device may enable caregivers and patients to become more active participants in their healthcare.
