Trial summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to collect information and blood samples to try to learn why some people develop cancers and tumors, why some families have more cancers than others, and whether certain genes or regions of DNA (the genetic material of cells) affect a person's risk of getting cancer.

About this study

The goal of this clinical research study is to collect information and blood samples to try to learn why some people develop cancers and tumors, why some families have more cancers than others, and whether certain genes or regions of DNA (the genetic material of cells) affect a person's risk of getting cancer.

This is an investigational study.

Up to 1500 patients and family members will take part in this study. All will be enrolled at MD Anderson.

Read the detailed description

If you choose to take part in this study, blood (about 10 teaspoons) will be drawn for genetic testing. The blood may be drawn more than 1 time, depending on how much blood is drawn at the first visit, and if you are available for more blood draws. If this is the case, your doctor will discuss any extra blood draws with you.

For small children (less than 5 years old), about 2 teaspoons will be drawn. Children who are 5 years old or older will not have more than 3 teaspoons drawn.

You will complete a questionnaire about your medical history and family medical history. The questionnaire should take about 1 hour to complete. The study staff will also review your medical records.

You will be asked to allow the study staff to collect any of your tissue (whether healthy or cancerous) that is leftover from surgeries performed as part of your standard care. This may be from any past or future surgeries or any tissue being stored at MD Anderson or elsewhere. No new surgeries or biopsies will be performed for this study.

Before your information, tissue samples, and/or bodily fluids can be used for research, the people doing the research must get specific approval from the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of MD Anderson. The IRB is a committee made up of doctors, researchers, and members of the community. The IRB is responsible for protecting the participants involved in research studies and making sure all research is done in a safe and ethical manner. All research done at MD Anderson, including research involving your information, tissue samples, and/or bodily fluids, must first be approved by the IRB.

You may be contacted either by phone or mail 1 time a year, so that the study staff can update your medical history and information. If contacted by phone, this call should last about 30 minutes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Wilms' Tumor and Aniridia, run by M.D. Anderson Cancer Center 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Jan 2020. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Genetic Events Involved in Development of Wilms' tumor, Genitourinary Anomalies, Hemihypertrophy and Beckwith-Wiedemann, and/or Aniridia (time frame: 32 Years (Descriptive data collected using questionnaires)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 27 Jan 2020.
