Project data

Project description:

cALL-POL is a clinical research project that is intended to include all children in Poland with a newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The main goal of the cALL-POL project is to facilitate access to advanced therapies for Polish children with ALL and to identify best treatment options using advanced genome-wide molecular diagnostics for patients who have not responded to the standard therapeutic strategy.

ALL is the most common malignancy in the pediatric population, with a prevalence of 47 per million per year among children under 15 years of age. ALL is therefore, by definition, a rare disease and only a joint international scientific initiative can improve the effectiveness of treatment. A consortium consisting of the Medical University of Lodz, the Medical University of Lublin, the Medical University of Silesia and the Institute of Innovative Technologies EMAG will jointly conduct nationwide clinical trials involving pediatric patients with ALL. Recruited patients with newly diagnosed ALL will participate in three different controlled clinical trials: AIEOP-BFM 2017 POLAND, EsPhALL 2017/COG AALL1631, Rux-cALL-Pol 2020.
