Acute myeloid leukaemia in children in a resource-limited setting: epidemiology, management, and outcomes in Uganda
REFNo: HS4479ES
Aim of the study
This doctoral study aims to investigate paediatric AML in Uganda and other African countries, namely the incidence and prevalence of paediatric AML, the AML biological characteristics, the supportive care needs, and overall survival after the introduction of an adapted AML treatment protocol with a reduced-intensity induction regimen.
Specific objectives
1. To describe the incidence and prevalence of paediatric AML in Uganda.
2. To evaluate paediatric AML management and outcomes in Uganda and other African countries based on different treatment protocols.
3. To determine the risk factors for induction failure and treatment-related morbidity and mortality in children with AML.
4. To conduct a “proof-of-concept” study to test the recommendations of the SIOP-PODC (renamed SIOP Global) adapted guidelines for paediatric AML in resource-limited settings.
5. To identify the limitations in supportive care (anti-bacterial, blood products, and intensive care) needs in the treatment of paediatric AML in Uganda.
