PdL-SMN1: Second Malignant Neoplasms After Childhood ALL Therapy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Development of a second neoplasm (SMN) during or after therapy for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a rare event generally associated with a poor prognosis. In this international study we analyze subtypes of SMN in relation to their initial leukemia characteristics and treatment, and their subsequent overall survival.

Detailed Description
To explore epidemiology, potential risk factors and survival rates of second cancers occurring as the first event in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia the involved study groups will collect anonymous data on all such cases diagnosed within the last decades to form a common database with predefined variables comprising the clinical, biological, and cytogenetic characteristics (myeloid neoplasias only) as well as outcome. Furthermore, we will register the clinical, biological, and cytogenetic characteristics of the acute lymphoblastic leukemia as well as type of treatment given.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
ALL diagnosed 1980-2007 Cases of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) diagnosed between 1980 and 2007 and included in the clinical trials of the participating ALL study groups |
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Pattern of SMN subtypes [At 20 years from diagnosis]
Pattern of the main groups of SMN and their clinical charactiristics
- Overall survival by subtype [At 10 years from diagnosis of SMN]
Overall survival by the main SMN subtypes (myeloid malignancies, brain tumors, lymphomas, sarcomas, carcinomas, others)
- Risk factors for development of SMN [At 20 years from ALL diagnosis]
Identification of risk factors linked to the interval to SMN, the subtype of SMN, and the survival after. These risk factors are clinical characteristics of ALL or the anti-ALL therapy administered
