Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Study of the intermediate metabolism in children diagnosed with ALL compared to healthy matched controls.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: Metabolome study

Detailed Description

The primary cause of this study is to investigate the changes that ALL may cause to the metabolome of pediatric patients, in order to better understand its mechanism of action and target metabolic pathways for potential therapies.
