Trial summary

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients with cancer may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Germline Polymorphisms Associated With the PSA Response in Men With Metastatic Prostate Cancer Treated With Androgen Deprivation Therapy

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients with cancer may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.

PURPOSE: This research study is studying blood samples from patients with metastatic prostate cancer previously treated with bicalutamide and goserelin.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To test the association between serum PSA response (< 4 ng/mL) at 7 months with inherited variability of germline single nucleotide polymorphisms, in a set of candidate genes, in patients with metastatic prostate cancer treated with combination induction androgen-deprivation therapy comprising bicalutamide and goserelin.

OUTLINE: DNA extracted from whole blood or serum samples is analyzed for inherited variability of germline single nucleotide polymorphisms.

Conditions
Prostate Cancer
Being tested
gene expression analysis, polymorphism analysis, laboratory biomarker analysis
Keywords
recurrent prostate cancer, stage IV prostate cancer
Medical subject headings

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer, run by SWOG Cancer Research Network.

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 7 Oct 2016. 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?

Serum PSA values at 7 months (time frame: 7 months). 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 7 Oct 2016.
