Molecular Basis of Langerhans and Non-Langerhans Cell Histiocytic Neoplasms and Castleman Disease
Molecular Basis of Langerhans and Non-Langerhans Cell Histiocytic Neoplasms and Castleman Disease

NCT05028621

SuspendedNA

Sponsor: Case Comprehensive Cancer Center

Conditions: Castleman's Disease (CD), Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH), Non-Langerhans-Cell Histiocytosis

Interventions: Genetic testing

Countries: United States

The purpose of this study is to use agnostic genomic evaluation using whole exome sequencing (WES) of a variety of rare hematologic diseases grouped under rare blood diseases and its variants to further elucidate the understanding of the chemistry of these disorders and identify potential actionable mutations that can be targeted with therapies in the context of clinical trials.
