HISTIOGEN clinical study is part of the POLHISTIO project. The POLHISTIO project is a non-commercial clinical trial aimed at optimizing the diagnosis and treatment of juvenile patients with histiocytosis. The project objectives are defined as follows: 1) to estimate the nature and frequency of mutations in patients with histiocytosis in both tumor tissues and free-circulating DNA; 2) to compare molecular test results with clinical data; 3) to evaluate the diagnostic usefulness of the status of molecular analysis (MRD) as a prognostic factor compared with other recognized factors. As part of the HISTIOGEN protocol, an immortalized cell line will be derived to study the pathogenesis of the disease, drug sensitivity, and drug resistance mechanisms. The project is intended to include patients from all over Poland
Prospective, low intervention, open, single-center, non-commercial clinical trial to improve diagnostics in patients with histiocytosis by assessing the molecular profile of the tumor tissues, monitoring its presence in free-circulating DNA, and determining the efficacy of fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) in PET-CT imaging.
