1. to assess the frequency of acute myeloid leukemia at clinical Haematology unit of Assiute university hospital 2. to study correlations of known risk factors and if there are new risk factors participate in increasing frequency of acute myeloid leukemia
Advanced Practice Nurse (APN) is a new contributor in the French healthcare system. APN is part of a multidisciplinary team and aim to monitor patients under the coordination of the doctor particularly in onco-hematology. The aim of the study is to describe the different perceptions and expectations of APN monitoring according to patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and their care team. This study will involve 10 patients, recruited over a provisional period of 5 months and 25 member of care team. Patients and their care team will be asked about their perceptions and expectations of APN participation in (AML monitoring) during a semi-structured interviews.
Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a group of medical conditions derived from progressive bone marrow failure that result in ineffective production of blood cells. Depending on the severity, MDS reduces the quality of life to the point of being life-threatening. There is a probability of death at all stages of the disease, due to complications and co-morbidities, with progression to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) being the worst evolution. Azacytidine is a nucleosidic analog with original epigenetic mechanism of action that is widely used for treating a variety of myelodysplasic syndromes. Although generally well tolerated, severe and sometimes life-threatening toxicities were unexpectedly observed in some patients. Genetic polymorphism affecting cytidine deaminase (CDA), the liver enzyme responsible for azacytidine detoxification step, could be responsible for poor clinical outcome due to on the one hand to severe toxicities in deficient patients, and on the other hand on treatment failure in ultrametabolizer patients.This clinical study aims at correlating the values in CDA levels with the risk of drug-related toxicities and to the clinical response to azacytidine treatment.
