About this study

Official title: Fanconi Anemia Cancer Cell Repository

RATIONALE: Collecting and storing samples of tumor tissue from patients with Fanconi anemia to test in the laboratory may help the study of cancer in the future.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is collecting and storing tumor tissue samples from patients with Fanconi anemia.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • Acquire rare solid tumor samples from patients with Fanconi anemia in order to create a Fanconi Anemia Cell Repository at the Oregon Health and Science University Cancer Institute.
  • Study repository tissue using a variety of molecular methods, including gene microarrays.
  • Develop cancer cell lines that are publicly available from tissue archived from patients with Fanconi anemia.

OUTLINE: Tumor biopsies are collected from patients with Fanconi anemia and archived for future molecular studies, cell line generation, and general usage by the research community at large. Medical information about the patient's cancer is also archived.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Not specified.

Being tested
biologic sample preservation procedure, biopsy

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • biologic sample preservation procedureOther

    Once the pathologist has taken the material needed to establish diagnosis of cancer, the anonymized snap-frozen and fresh samples will be either shipped to our laboratory for analysis or will be picked up by a member of the principal investigator's lab team. Samples will be stored indefinitely.

  • biopsyProcedure or surgery

    Once the pathologist has taken the material needed to establish diagnosis of cancer, 1-10 grams of the remaining tissue should be placed in phosphate buffered saline and shipped to the Bagby Lab.

What is being measured

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

  1. Creation of a Fanconi Anemia Cell Repository using rare solid tumor samples from patients with Fanconi anemia

    Measured: Duration of the study

  2. Study tissue samples by molecular methods, including gene microarrays

    Measured: Duration of the study

  3. Development of cancer cell lines from tissue archived from patients with Fanconi anemia

    Measured: Duration of the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Fanconi Anemia and Unspecified Adult Solid Tumor, Protocol Specific, run by OHSU Knight Cancer Institute 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?

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 4 Dec 2017. 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?

Creation of a Fanconi Anemia Cell Repository using rare solid tumor samples from patients with Fanconi anemia (time frame: Duration of the study). The study lists 3 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 4 Dec 2017.
