Retrospective Study of Patients With Severe Aplastic Anemia Who Developed High Risk Clonal Evolution With Chromosome 7 Abnormalities After Immunosuppressive Therapy

September 27, 2022 updated by: National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)

Background:

Severe aplastic anemia (SAA) is a form of bone marrow failure. It usually results from a

cytotoxic T cell attack on the marrow stem cell. Two treatments can be used for SAA. One is allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The other is immunosuppressive treatment (IST). In most cases, HSCT or IST works. But for some people, clonal evolution occurs after IST. One of the most common forms of clonal evolution is chromosome 7 abnormalities. These have a poor prognosis. HSCT can be used to treat them. Researchers do not know why clonal evolution happens. They want to look at data from past studies to learn more.

Objective:

To compare the data of people with SAA who developed chromosome 7 abnormalities between those who ultimately received HSCT versus those who received chemotherapy alone or supportive care.

Eligibility:

Adults and children with SAA who were enrolled on NHLBI protocol 12-H-0150, 06-H-0034, 03-H-0249, 03-H-0193, 00-H-0032, or 90-H-0146

Design:

This study uses data from past studies. The participants in those studies have allowed their data to be used in future research.

Researchers will review participants medical records. They will collect clinical data, such as notes, test results, and imaging scans. They will also collect the research data gathered as part of the original study.

Researchers will enter the data into an in-house database. It is password protected. All data will be kept in secure network drives or in sites that comply with NIH security rules.

Other studies may be added in the future.

Detailed Description

Severe aplastic anemia (SAA) is a form of bone marrow failure in most cases is the result of a cytotoxic T cell attack on the marrow stem cell. It is effectively treated in most patients with either immunosuppressive treatment (IST) or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). However, after IST, 'clonal evolution' is a significant complication in about 15% of patients, presenting as either a new cytogenetic abnormality or morphological evidence of myeloid malignancy. In particular, the development of chromosome 7 abnormalities is considered high risk and is associated with poor prognosis. The optimal treatment of chromosome 7 abnormalities following SAA is not defined though HSCT is widely offered.

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

2 years and older (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT, CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

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
Characteristics and outcomes of SAA patients who developed chromosome 7 abnormalities
Time Frame: Between the Period of 1990 to 2020
To compare characteristics and outcomes of SAA patients who developed chromosome 7 abnormalities between those who ultimately received HSCT versus those who received chemotherapy alone or supportive care
Between the Period of 1990 to 2020

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Clinical predictors for the development of chromosome 7 abnormalities such as age, gender, baseline laboratory value
Time Frame: Between the Period of 1990 to 2020
To identify clinical predictors for the development of chromosome 7 abnormalities such as age, gender, baseline laboratory values, time from diagnosis to initial treatment, relapse, and number of IST treatments
Between the Period of 1990 to 2020
Ascertain the natural history of patients with a chromosome 7 abnormality on karyotype
Time Frame: Between the Period of 1990 to 2020
Ascertain the natural history of patients with a chromosome 7 abnormality on karyotype who were surveilled until the development of an overt myeloid neoplasm
Between the Period of 1990 to 2020
Morphological predictors in the bone marrow for progression to an overt myeloid neoplasm
Time Frame: Between the Period of 1990 to 2020
To identify morphological predictors in the bone marrow for progression to an overt myeloid neoplasm in those with without an overt myeloid neoplasm at the time of development of chromosome 7 abnormalities
Between the Period of 1990 to 2020
