Conditions
Hematopoietic and Lymphatic System Neoplasm
Malignant Solid Neoplasm
Registration Number
NCT06640010
Lead Sponsor
Mayo Clinic
Brief Summary

This study is being done to find out if patient blood samples can be used to perform individualized modeling of cancer therapy-related side effects.

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC's) from patients receiving cancer treatment.

II. Differentiate patient iPSC's into cardiomyocytes and/or neurons or other cell types that may be relevant to modeling cancer therapy-related adverse effects, such as cardiotoxicity and neurotoxicity.

III. Use patient specific iPSC-derived cells to:

IIIa. Model cancer therapy-related toxicities; IIIb. Better understand the mechanisms of toxicities; IIIc. Determine if patient specific genetic variants are causative of toxicities; IIId. Screen novel protective therapies for cancer therapy-related toxicities.

OUTLINE: This is an observational study.

Patients undergo blood sample collection and have their medical records reviewed on study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
In vitro measurement of cellular viability in response to chemotherapyBlood drawn at enrollment to obtain sample

Will be compared between cells derived from patients who experienced treatment-induced toxicity to cells derived from patients who received the same cancer therapy without toxicity. Statistical analyses of different endpoints will use Fisher's exact test, one-way ANOVA test followed by all-pairwise-multiple-comparison procedures, or an unpaired, two-tailed Student's t-test with significant differences defined by P \< 0.05.
