About this trial

This study will investigate the association between clonal hematopoiesis and other conditions. Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) refers to the mutations in a person's stem cells which commonly affect people as they get older. These mutations have notably been linked to increased risk of certain cancers as well as increased risk of heart disease.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Disqualifiers

Unable to provide consent

Diagnosis of active hematologic malignancy. For example, a diagnosis of CMML, AML, MDS, MPN; History of hematologic malignancy is NOT exclusionary if in complete remission (e.g. previous myeloma or lymphoma)
