Summary

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in RNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. PURPOSE: This research study is studying RNA biomarkers in tissue samples from infants with acute myeloid leukemia.

Detailed description

OBJECTIVES: * Sequence the microRNAs present in 20 infant AML samples as a pilot study. * Compare microRNAs present in infant AML samples to infant ALL samples that are being concurrently sequenced in a separate study to identify lineage- and translocation-specific microRNAs. OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Previously collected cryopreserved cells from diagnosis are sequenced using reverse transcriptase-PCR.
