About this study

Official title: Quantitative Real Time PCR in Formalin Fixed Breast Tissue From Biopsy and Re-Excision Specimens: An Ancillary Protocol to a Chemoprevention Trial of Celecoxib

To assess the quantitative real time PCR results results of oligonucleotide probes for a number of gene transcription products that may be useful as predictors of indicators of response to celecoxib.

Read the detailed description

To assess the quantitative real time PCR results of oligonucleotide probes for a number of gene transcription products that may be useful as predictors or indicators of response to celecoxib, the feasibility of performing six different molecular assays by qRTPCR on formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue obtained from breast cancer core biopsies and breast cancer reexcision patients, to assess change in Ki-67, PCNA, and several other markers by qRTPCR, correlate change in expression of Ki-67, PCNA, CAX-2, and bcl-2, measured by immunohistochemistry to change measured by qRTPCR, and to determine the reliability of the qRTPCR and immunohistochemical assays by performed selected assays on the same tissue in two different institutions

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by University of Kansas at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Sep 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Sep 2008.
