ClinicalTrials ID:NCT03013998

This clinical trial is exploring new treatments for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) based on specific genetic markers. The study aims to find effective therapies by assigning patients to different sub-studies depending on their type of AML.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is designed to test new treatments for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by using genetic information to guide therapy choices. Participants will be assigned to different sub-studies based on their specific type of AML, with the goal of developing new targeted treatments. There is also a sub-study for patients who do not match any specific genetic markers, ensuring all participants can be included in the research.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Adults aged 60 or older at diagnosis, unless they belong to a specific genetic group where younger patients (18 and older) are allowed.
  • Must be able to understand and sign a consent form.
  • Group A: Patients with newly diagnosed AML who have not received treatment other than hydroxyurea. Patients with 10% to 19% cancer cells in bone marrow or blood can join. Those with 20% or more cancer cells can join if they have had certain prior treatments for related conditions.
  • Group B: Patients with AML that has returned or not responded to treatment. Patients 18 and older with specific genetic changes may join this group.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Patients with only myeloid sarcoma without AML in blood or bone marrow.
  • Patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia.
  • Patients with AML affecting the central nervous system.
  • Patients with symptoms requiring urgent treatment for blood flow issues.
  • Patients with severe bleeding or clotting problems.
  • Patients unable to give consent or follow the study due to personal or medical reasons.
  • Patients with other serious medical or psychiatric conditions that could interfere with the study.
