Second Malignant Neoplasms After Childhood ALL Therapy (PdL-SMN1)

May 23, 2012 updated by: Kjeld Schmiegelow, Rigshospitalet, Denmark

Second Malignant Neoplasms After Childhood ALL Therapy; An International Ponte di Legno Study

Development of a second neoplasm (SMN) during or after therapy for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a rare event generally associated with a poor prognosis. In this international study we analyze subtypes of SMN in relation to their initial leukemia characteristics and treatment, and their subsequent overall survival.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

To explore epidemiology, potential risk factors and survival rates of second cancers occurring as the first event in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia the involved study groups will collect anonymous data on all such cases diagnosed within the last decades to form a common database with predefined variables comprising the clinical, biological, and cytogenetic characteristics (myeloid neoplasias only) as well as outcome. Furthermore, we will register the clinical, biological, and cytogenetic characteristics of the acute lymphoblastic leukemia as well as type of treatment given.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

No older than 20 years (Child, Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

The study cohort includes all registered cases of second cancers occurring as the first event among children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and treated according to protocol by one of the collaborative groups participating in the present study

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosed with childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia
  • Diagnosis of second cancer before December 31st 2007

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Uncertainty if the second cancer has emerged from the same original leukemic clone

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
ALL diagnosed 1980-2007
Cases of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) diagnosed between 1980 and 2007 and included in the clinical trials of the participating ALL study groups

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pattern of SMN subtypes
Time Frame: At 20 years from diagnosis
Pattern of the main groups of SMN and their clinical charactiristics
At 20 years from diagnosis
Overall survival by subtype
Time Frame: At 10 years from diagnosis of SMN
Overall survival by the main SMN subtypes (myeloid malignancies, brain tumors, lymphomas, sarcomas, carcinomas, others)
At 10 years from diagnosis of SMN
Risk factors for development of SMN
Time Frame: At 20 years from ALL diagnosis
Identification of risk factors linked to the interval to SMN, the subtype of SMN, and the survival after. These risk factors are clinical characteristics of ALL or the anti-ALL therapy administered
At 20 years from ALL diagnosis

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
January 1, 2009

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
April 1, 2011

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
