OBSERVATIONAL
S9007, Cytogenetic Studies in Leukemia Patients
RATIONALE: Studying samples of bone marrow and blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.
PURPOSE: This research study is looking at bone marrow and blood samples from patients with leukemia or other hematopoietic cancers.
