A Retrospective Study on the Relationship Between Donor Leukocyte Telomere Length and Prognosis of Acute Leukemia Patients Treated With Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
China2,500 participantsStarted 2015-01-01
Plain-language summary
This post hoc analysis included patients with acute leukemia who underwent allo-HSCT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine and Ruijin Hospital Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. Patients and their donors were assessed for eligibility to join this study. The inclusion criteria were: (1) age ≥ 5 years; (2) diagnosis of acute leukemia including acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphocytic leukemia, and mixed phenotype acute leukemia; (3) patients attained complete remission (CR) and achieved full engraftment with 100% donor chimerism following allo-HSCT; (4) telomere testing was conducted on peripheral leukocytes of donors before granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilization, and the results were obtained. Written informed consent was obtained from all included patients and their donors, and the study was conducted in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki. Ethical approval was approved by the ethics review committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
