Monitoring blood markers in elderly patients with acute leukemia after chemotherapy

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to monitor circulating tumor DNA (CtDNA) levels in elderly patients diagnosed with acute leukemia following chemotherapy treatment. Utilizing the droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) method, the study will quantify the mutant allele frequency (MAF) in peripheral blood plasma to assess the clinical significance of CtDNA in this patient population. The findings may provide insights into treatment efficacy and disease progression in elderly patients.
