Determination of the Clonality Profile in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms and Association With the Thrombotic Complications (CLOJAK)

Study Purpose

Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN) are associated with an increased risk of thrombosis. Platelets, red blood cells (RBC), leukocytes and endothelial cells are involved in these complications. An association with the JAK2V617F allele burden assessed in leukocytes has also been suggested. In some patients the allele burden measured in platelets and red blood cells is higher than the one determined in leukocytes. Our project aims at associating the risk of thrombosis with the allele burden determined in the cell populations (platelets, red blood cells, granulocytes and endothelial cells) and identifying high-risk clonality profiles.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Observational
Eligible Ages	18 Years and Over
Gender	All

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT05839717
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Additional Details

Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPN) are hematological malignancies associated with an increased risk of thrombosis. Although different cell types have been involved in these complications (platelets, red blood cells, leucocytes and endothelial cells), there do not exist any reliable biomarker to predict the thrombotic risk in MPN patients. While some studies suggested that the JAK2V617F allele burden measured in leukocytes was associated with the risk of thrombosis, other studies did not confirm these results. Besides, a recent work demonstrated that in some patients, the JAK2V617F allele burden measured in platelets and red blood cells was higher than the one determined in leukocytes. Moreover, some patients present JAK2V617F mutated endothelial cells, known as pro-thrombotic in in vitro and animal models. The CLOJAK project will search for an association between the thrombotic risk in MPN and the proportion of cells carrying the JAK2V617F mutation in erythroid cells and platelets or its presence in endothelial cells. The objective is to determine a clonality profile (i.e. the profile of repartition of the JAK2V617F allele burden in the different hematopoietic and endothelial lineages) associated with the occurrence of thrombosis in MPN patients. One hundred and twenty PV and ET patients will be studied at diagnosis. Their platelets, red blood cells, granulocytes and endothelial cells will be isolated. The JAK2V617F allele burden will be measured in these cells thanks to a digital PCR technic. An association between the clonality profile and the existence of a thrombosis at diagnosis, the MPN phenotype (PV or ET), the IPSET-thrombosis score and the type of thrombosis (venous, arterial, splanchnic) will be searched.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: PV and ET patients

The cohort will be composed of PV and ET patients, some with a history of thrombosis and some without any history of thrombosis. A comparison will also be performed between patients with different MPN (PV or ET) and the type of thrombosis (venous, arterial, splanchnic)

Interventions

Procedure: - Blood sampling

A specific blood sampling will be performed in addition to the classical evaluations that are performed in routine practice
