About this trial
This is a prospective data collection study evaluating the feasibility of using the ChromoSeq® assay for upfront classification in a real-time clinical setting of pediatric and young patients suspected of having ALL. Sixty patients will undergo collections of bone marrow and/or peripheral blood for the ChromoSeq® assay at time of initial workup as part of standard of care, and the patients will then be followed for clinical outcomes for up to 65 months.
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Children and young adult patients (< 30 years of age at time of study enrollment) treated at St. Louis Children's Hospital/Washington University School of Medicine.
Suspected diagnosis or suspected relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), B- or T-cell.
Concurrent enrollment on a prospective therapeutic trial is allowed as this protocol makes no recommendations regarding treatment approach.
Ability to understand and willingness to sign an IRB approved written informed consent document. All patients and/or their parents or legal guardians must sign an IRB approved written informed consent document.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Rate of success of ChromoSeq®
ChromoSeq® will be successful if the results on the first attempt in a real-time, clinical setting identifies recurrent structural variants and copy number alterations of conventional cytogenetics and karyotype. The success rate and the 95% confidence interval will be calculated.
Secondary outcomes
Comparison of time-to-results of ChromoSeq® and conventional cytogenetics
The proportion of results return within 15 days and the 95% confidence interval will be calculated.
Frequency of mismatch between LDA standard testing and ChromoSeq® defined Ph-like patients.
The outcome will be measured by determining the correlation of LDA testing on patients with neutral cytogenetics versus LDA testing on patients whose ChromoSeq® results display a Ph-like translocation for validation.
