About this study

Official title: Observational - Prognostic Value of p53 and/or p16 Alterations in Ewing Sarcoma

This laboratory study is looking at tumor samples from patients with Ewing sarcoma. Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer

Read the detailed description

Study Subtype: Ancillary/Correlative Observational Study Model: Cohort Time Perspective: Prospective Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA Biospecimen Description: Tissue Study Population Description: Samples collected from AEWS0031 and patients registered on AEWS08B1 Sampling Method: Non-Probability Sample

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Determine if mutation of p53, and/or deletion of the p16 locus, have prognostic value in patients with Ewing sarcoma.

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Estimate the incidence of p53 mutation in Ewing sarcoma samples collected from COG studies.

II. Estimate the incidence of p16 deletions in Ewing sarcoma samples collected from COG studies.

III. Prepare and archive amplified genomic DNA from Ewing sarcoma samples collected from COG studies for future biologic analysis.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Previously archived tumor samples are analyzed for p53 mutations and p16 deletion by immunohistochemistry, FISH, PCR, and DNA sequencing.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Event-free survival

    Measured: Time from study entry until disease progression, death without progression of disease, occurrence of a second malignant neoplasm or last follow-up, assessed up to 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Incidence of p53 mutations using the model of Sather and Sposto

    Assessed using a two sided log rank test. The expected 95% confidence interval associated with this estimate, as a function of sample size and true mutation/deletion frequency is provided.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Incidence of p16 loss or deletion using the model of Sather and Sposto

    Assessed using a two sided log rank test. The expected 95% confidence interval associated with this estimate, as a function of sample size and true mutation/deletion frequency is provided.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Localized Ewing Sarcoma/Peripheral Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor, run by Children's Oncology Group 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 2 inclusion and 0 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 17 May 2016. 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Event-free survival (time frame: Time from study entry until disease progression, death without progression of disease, occurrence of a second malignant neoplasm or last follow-up, assessed up to 3 years). 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 17 May 2016.
