About this trial

The goal of this project is to test non-invasive, painless skin electrical bioimpedance (BioZ) measurements as an adjunctive biomarker to standard bone marrow biopsies.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Suspected or confirmed diagnosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and undergoing a bone marrow biopsy.

Age 18 or older.

Able to provide informed consent and willing to sign an approved consent form that conforms to federal and institutional guidelines.

Disqualifiers

Study prospect that has an electronic implant (cardiac, neurological, sensory, prosthetic implants with an electronic component. Also monitoring and drug delivery systems.)

Medical, psychiatric, cognitive, or other conditions that may compromise the participant's ability to understand the participant information, give informed consent, comply with the study protocol or complete the study.

Pregnant women

Inability to understand and/or speak the English or Spanish language.

Trial population

Patients with suspected or confirmed diagnosis of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) or Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Bioimpedance (BioZ)

    Diagnostic test

    The BioZ device uses a low-intensity electrical current that is applied from inside of the BioZ device that has small electrodes at the tip. To interrogate these electrical properties, the electrodes (tip of the device) will be placed on the skin in the area of the hip. Once this occurs, the electrodes will be activated and the low-intensity current will be applied. As the current moves through the skin the device has a probe to detect changes in current that may be associated with cancer. Data from the probe is related to a secure phone that has an app to collect information.
