Pharmacogenomics of Asparaginase Induced Hepatotoxicity

Pharmacogenomics of Age-Specific, Asparaginase-Induced Hepatotoxicity in Patients With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia


Sponsor

University of Southern California

Enrollment

500 participants

Start Date

May 22, 2018

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This pilot trial studies the impact of genetic information on developing liver damage caused by asparaginase in participants with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Testing saliva samples may help doctors find certain genetic markers that may predict whether participants will tolerate asparaginase, which is given as part of clinical care for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Inclusion Criteria4

  • Newly diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) - no prior treatment for ALL
  • Receiving asparaginase as part of the primary treatment regimen
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent
  • For retrospective recruitment, those who have received asparaginase between 2012 and 2017; and are current patients of University of Southern California (USC)

Exclusion Criteria1

  • Patients who are unable to give informed consent
