NCT02958462

Brief Summary

This clinical trial tests next generation sequencing (NGS) for the detection of precursor features of pre-myeloid cancers and bone marrow failure syndromes. NGS is a procedure that looks at relevant cancer associated genes and what they do. Finding genetic markers for pre-malignant conditions may help identify patients who are at risk of pre-myeloid cancers and bone marrow failure syndromes and lead to earlier intervention.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Occurrence of cytopenias

    Assessed by the number of subjects whose cytopenias are persistent or progressive over the course of the study

    Up tof 5 years

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Occurrence of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)

Study Arms (1)

Screening (biospecimen collection, NGS analysis)

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants may undergo blood sample collection, a bone marrow biopsy, a skin punch biopsy, hair follicle collection, a buccal swab, and/or saliva collection for NGS analysis on study. Patients may additionally undergo clinical assessment and may receive genetic counseling on study.

  • Low risk MDS (idiopathic dysplasia of unclear significance)
  • Family member of a patient with one of the above conditions
  • Patient at high risk or suspected of developing one of the above conditions

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients under 18 years of age
