RECRUITING NA

Evaluating the Effects of Hemoglobin Threshold-specific Packed Red Blood Cell Transfusions on Quality of Life and Functional Outcomes in Patients With High-grade Myeloid Neoplasms, Acute Myeloid Leukemia, or B Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma/Leukemia

NCT06710418 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

This clinical trial evaluates the effects of hemoglobin threshold-specific packed red blood cell (PRBC) transfusions on quality of life and functional outcomes in patients who have undergone chemotherapy or an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant for a high-grade myeloid neoplasm, acute myeloid leukemia, or B acute lymphoblastic lymphoma/leukemia. Some types of chemotherapy and stem cell transplants can induce low platelet counts and/or anemia that requires PRBC transfusions. Given critical shortages in blood supply, and risks associated with transfusion of PRBC, there has been much investigation into the "minimum" hemoglobin level that effectively balances safety and toxicity in patients. This clinical trial evaluates the effects of giving PRBC transfusions based on a more restrictive hemoglobin threshold (\> 7 gm/dL) compared to a more liberal hemoglobin threshold (\> 9 gm/dL) on quality of life and functional outcomes. A more restrictive threshold may be just as effective at maintaining patient quality of life and function while decreasing side effects from blood transfusions and helping to conserve blood supply resources.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06710418

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06710418 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 50 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Washington, which has 987 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 4 conditions, with Acute Myeloid Leukemia appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 5 interventions — of which Biospecimen Collection is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06710418 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Washington. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
