About this study
In plain language
This study looks at how bone marrow makes blood cells and responds to infections in people with MBL or CLL. MBL means having extra abnormal white blood cells, and CLL is a type of blood cancer. The study includes people with these conditions and healthy people for comparison.
This study evaluates hematopoiesis to determine how MBL/CLL affected bone marrow responds to fight off infections in the body.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
Eligibility
Who can join
- People with CLL confirmed by flow cytometry, a test that checks cells in the blood.
- People with CLL may be untreated, getting treatment now, or have had treatment before.
- People with a confirmed diagnosis of MBL.
- Healthy people about the same age as those with MBL or CLL.
- Healthy people who are younger than the other groups but over age 40.
Who can't join
- Anyone under age 40.
- People with CLL or MBL cannot join the healthy comparison groups.
Simplified for readability. The official criteria below are what the study team uses.
