Overview
This is a registry study in adult patients with newly diagnosed or refractory/relapsed myeloid neoplasms
Investigator's sites: 80-90 sites in Germany and Austria
Estimated duration of observation of an individual patient:
10 years maximum
Objectives
- To register all patients with AML and related neoplasms, newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory in all AMLSG participating centers (completeness)
- To perform rapid analyses of disease-related genetic markers (incidences, treatment recommendations)
- To assess patient and family history, as well as patient characteristics
- To evaluate treatment response (CR, CRh, CRi) and outcome data (event-free survival [EFS], relapse-free survival [RFS], cumulative incidence of relapse [CIR], cumulative incidence of death [CID], overall survival [OS])
- To evaluate the impact of measurable residual disease (MRD) by different methods
- To assess biological disease features and correlate with clinical outcome data (prognostic and predictive markers)
- To store biosamples from all patients (e.g., bone marrow, blood, plasma, normal tissue; e.g., skin biopsy, finger nails, hairs, sputum, or urine)
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients with suspected diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia and related neoplasms, newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory, classified according to the International Consensus Classification
- Age ≥ 18 years. There is no upper age limit.
- Signed written informed consent
Exclusion Criteria:
- Severe neurological or psychiatric disorder interfering with ability to give an informed consent
- No consent for registration, storage and processing of the individual patient and disease characteristics and course as well as information of the family physician about study participation
- No consent for biobanking of patient's biological specimens and performance of analyses on stored material.
