Clinical Trial

Connect® MDS and AML: The Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) Disease Registry

This study is observational. An observational disease registry study means that only information about your disease and medical treatment that your study doctor is already prescribing as part of your standard medical care is collected. Standard medical care is the treatment normally given for a certain condition or illness.The registry will collect information from patient's regular care medical records for review and study: patient's medical history and medications, cancer treatment and side effects, the results of patient's regular care laboratory tests, and the results of cancer care and treatment procedures performed as part of regular care. The registry that will be built from information gathered from this study can help doctors decide what to do in situations when a new treatment is needed. Importantly, they can also gather information to help doctors learn which treatments are most effective in these situations. You will continue with your standard medical care and continue with any medicines you are now taking, office visits and laboratory testing according to the normal routine practices of your treating or study doctor(s). No additional medication, or payment for medication, is provided as part of this study. There is no investigational drug involved in this study. There will be no additional study visits, procedures, or testing required for this study. We will only collect this information as it relates to the standard medical care you are receiving.
