About this study

The goal of the Clonal Hematopoiesis Chemotherapy and Radiation Effects (CH CARE) Study is to understand how the presence or absence of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) influences outcomes in people receiving chemotherapy and radiation for solid cancers. The study will collect biospecimens and clinical information. These data will be used to define clinical and molecular features that predict the presence of high-risk clonal hematopoiesis (CH) in patients exposed to cytotoxic anti-cancer therapy. Predictive features will be utilized to identify populations of cancer patients and survivors who are at the highest risk of developing therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs). Ultimately this study will result in the development of a novel novel risk prediction algorithm for t-MNs in patients with solid cancers and drive potential therapeutic approaches to intercept progression from CH to often fatal t-MNs.
