Who can join

60 and older, any sex, with Acute Myeloid Leukemia or Leukemia, Myeloid. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.

Sponsor's own description

This study will explore how malnutrition (poor nutrition/diet) and sarcopenia (a condition that causes a loss of muscle and bone mass) affects study participants over the age of 60 with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who will receive induction chemotherapy (chemotherapy given as the first treatment to help cancer go into remission) and/or cancer drugs as part of standard care for AML. By studying how these nutritional and skeletal factors, doctors leading this study hope to learn how malnutrition and sarcopenia may be able to predict certain outcomes --such as how long study participants with poor nutrition and muscle loss can live after chemotherapy- for older (age 60+) individuals with AML.
