Biomarker Study in Tissue Samples From Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia

July 7, 2016 updated by: Children's Oncology Group

Assessment of Stem Cell Heterogeneity in AML in Co-Culture Systems Using X Chromosome Inactivation Patterns

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This research study is studying biomarkers in tissue samples from patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the frequency of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) that originates in CD33+ precursors or in which uncontrolled growth is restricted to CD33+ precursors.

OUTLINE: Cryopreserved acute myeloid leukemia cell samples are separated from endothelial cell by fluorescent-activated cell sorting (FACS) and analyzed for X-chromosome inactivation patterns by cytogenetic/molecular analysis and/or Humara assay.
