About this study
In plain language
This study collects tissue samples and medical information to learn what causes chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and how it works. CLL is a type of blood cancer. The study is for new and current patients with CLL or certain other conditions that affect white blood cells.
The purpose of this study is to collect human Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia tissue samples and medical information, in order to find out more about the causes and biology of chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- New or current patients seen for treatment of monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis, which means having extra B cells, a type of white blood cell.
- Patients with any low-grade lymphoproliferative disorder, a slow-growing condition in which the body makes too many of certain white blood cells.
- Patients with CLL seen at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute Hematologic Oncology Clinic or elsewhere.
