New treatment option for Acute Lymphatic Leukemia
Official title More Than Just X-Rays - Imaging of Chemotherapy-induced Morphological and Functional Cardiovascular and Lung Changes After Childhood ALL and Other Cancers - a Monocentric Late Effects Study (MaximALL)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07705178
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- In this study, we investigate the cardiopulmonary health of survivors who underwent cancer treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or lymphoma during childhood, compared with healthy controls. Modern imaging techniques (MRI, MSOT, and echocardiography) as well as questionnaires assessing cardiopulmonary and mental health are used.
