Study of the Intermediate Metabolism in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)

• Conditions: Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Pediatric; Metabolism Disorder

• Registration Number: NCT03035344
• Lead Sponsor: Aristotle University Of Thessaloniki

Brief Summary

Study of the intermediate metabolism in children diagnosed with ALL compared to healthy matched controls.

Detailed Description

The primary cause of this study is to investigate the changes that ALL may cause to the metabolome of pediatric patients, in order to better understand its mechanism of action and target metabolic pathways for potential therapies.
