Pre-myeloid Cancer and Bone Marrow Failure Clinic Study
Mayo Clinic
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.
Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To use genomics and functional translational studies to diagnose, prognosticate and potentially offer therapeutic directives for patients with precursor features of myeloid neoplasms (myelodysplastic syndrome \[MDS\], myeloproliferative neoplasms \[MPN\], MDS/MPN overlap syndrome) and germline predisposition/bone marrow failure states, who do not meet the criteria for the diagnosis of these cancers as of yet. II. To identify patients with precursor myeloid malignancies and bone marrow failure syndromes. III. To examine the utility of NGS methods for discovery of targe…
