MVO: Pharmacogenetics of VOD in Children With HSCT
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This project aims to identify common pharmacogenetic biomarkers predisposing children with cancer to develop hepatic VOD during their cancer treatment including HSCT. The impact of VOD occurrence and significant biomarkers will also be evaluated on outcome at day 100 and one year after HSCT. It should help to highlight factors that can contribute to the initiation of hepatic VOD.
Understanding mechanisms of this toxicity and to know individual parameters of disease susceptibility becomes an important issue in the care of these children. The ultimate goal of research in this area would be to develop a personalized predictive medicine and, hopefully, prevent the occurrence of VOD from a therapeutic adaptation to each patient according to his pharmacogenetic profile (adapted prophylaxis, dose adjustment, drug combinations ...). A prospective identification of patients at risk of hepatic VOD will increase the safe use of anticancer.

Detailed Description
Hematopoietic stem cells transplantation (HSCT) in children with cancer is source of veno-occlusive disease (VOD). This complication is unpredictable and serious by involving the vital prognosis of the child. In addition, this complication may affect the patient's quality of life and have serious long-term sequelae. The incidence varies from 15 to 60% and the mortality is greater than 60% after severe VOD. The risk factors of occurrence of these complications are, to date, unknown except for a susceptibility to some therapeutic (busulfan, radiotherapy ...). Pharmacogenetic aspects of hepatic VOD susceptibility are supposed and targeted screening supported this hypothesis. But pharmacogenetic predisposition to VOD was never explored with as many polymorphisms and considering the whole exome.

Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Group 1: Patients with VOD paediatric patients with Veno-Occlusive Disease (VOD) complicating haematological stem cell transplantation |
|
| Group 2: matched controls Paediatric patients defined as matched controls without veno-occlusive disease complicating haematological stem cell transplantation |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Pharmacogenetic biomarkers [12 months]
The pharmacogenetic analysis will be conducted by a whole exome genotyping approach with Microarrays Illumina "Human Omni2.5-8 v1.3" (exploring more than 2,600,000 genetic variants covering the entire genome with more than 300,000 genetic biomarkers within exons).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Survival status at 100 days post HSCT [100 days]
Survival at 100 days post-HSCT will be evaluated according to the occurrence or not of VOD
- Survival status at 1 year post HSCT [12 months]
Survival at 1 year post-HSCT will be evaluated according to the occurrence or not of VOD
