About this study

Official title: Assessment of SNP Genotypes in Men With Prostate Cancer

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of blood from patients and their brothers with cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at changes in DNA in patients and their brothers with prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Determine the frequency of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes in patients with prostate cancer, their affected siblings, and an unaffected healthy population (control).
  • Determine the age of onset of prostate cancer in affected probands and affected siblings.
  • Determine the penetrance or likelihood that given SNPs will result in disease in affected siblings based upon Mendelian genetics.
  • Determine the odds ratio of developing prostate cancer in the presence of SNPs.
  • Determine SNP genotypes in patients enrolled on ECOG-E3805, a prostate phase III study enrolling men with D2 prostate cancer treated with androgen-ablation therapy alone or androgen-ablation therapy with chemotherapy, and correlate them with disease progression (i.e., androgen independence).

OUTLINE: This is an open-label, multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to ethnicity, age at diagnosis, and Gleason score.

Patients, their affected siblings, and healthy participants (controls) undergo collection of blood samples. Genomic DNA is extracted from whole blood and sequenced for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in Akt and mdm-2 genes. SNP data is correlated with clinical and biographical data.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 500 patients (250 probands and 250 siblings) and 146 healthy participants (controls) will be accrued for this study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer, run by ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 19 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Frequency of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 May 2017.
