MEASURE: Molecular Evaluation of AML Patients After Stem Cell Transplant to Understand Relapse Events
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Prospective determination of the clinical utility of measurable residual disease (MRD) testing for relapse and survival of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT).

Detailed Description
This is a multi-center non-randomized prospective study designed to establish a national framework for introducing measurable residual disease testing into the clinical care of AML patients undergoing allogeneic transplantation.
Enrollment is expected to occur over a 4-year period, with an additional 3 years of follow-up. Subject participation this study will be approximately 3 years. Up to 1,000 subjects will be enrolled.
Subjects will be asked to provide blood samples at months 1-6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 post-transplant, and archived specimens from time of AML diagnosis and any bone marrow samples collected for clinical purposes will be requested for research testing. Additional blood and marrow samples will be requested at relapse (if applicable).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Overall Survival [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
Overall survival post-alloHCT via comparison between those testing positive or negative using an optimized molecular monitoring approach.
- Cumulative incidence of relapse [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
Cumulative incidence of relapse post-alloHCT via comparison between those testing positive or negative using an optimized molecular monitoring approach.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Relapse Prediction - Testing Approaches [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
Proportion of post-alloHCT relapses identified by different MRD testing approaches with optimal test thresholds at peri-transplant timepoints.
- Relapse Prediction - Pre-Transplant Testing [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
Proportion of post-alloHCT relapses predicted by pre-transplant testing (comparing blood with marrow when available).
- Relapse Prediction - Early Prediction [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
Proportion of post-alloHCT relapses identified one month or more earlier than local testing by post-alloHCT optimized monitoring.
- Relapse Prediction - Time to Relapse [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
Time from testing positive by optimized monitoring to relapse.
- Biology of Relapse - Change in Genetic Profile [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
for subjects with relapse sample available) - Proportion of relapses with change in genetic profile to diagnosis.
- Biology of Relapse - Change in Immunophenotype [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
(for subjects with relapse sample available) - Proportion of relapses with change in immunophenotype to diagnosis.
- Biology of Relapse - HLA Loss [Through up to 3 years post-alloHCT]
(for subjects with relapse sample available) - Proportion of relapses with evidence of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loss.
