About this study

Official title: Perspective Evaluation of Hormones Involved in Serum Phosphate Homeostasis in Patients With Metastatic Renal Cells Carcinoma or Hepatocellular Carcinoma Treated With Sorafenib. Multicenter Cohort Study

The study includes the recruitment of patients with advanced renal cells carcinoma and hepatocarcinoma in treatment with sorafenib. Multicenter cohort study. It is a prospective observational study.

Read the detailed description

Several tyrosin kinase inhibitors are able to induce hypophosphatemia but the mechanisms underling this metabolic disorder are unknown.

Sorafenib is probably the drug in which this metabolic disturbance is most frequent. The aim of the study is identify variation of blood serum analites involved in hypophosphatemia in patients with advanced renal cells carcinoma and hepatocarcinoma in treatment with sorafenib.

What is being measured

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

  1. Identify the value variations of hormones involved in phosphate homeostasis during sorafenib administration

    Assess the effects of sorafenib hormones involved in phosphate homeostasis

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Identify metabolic differences between renal cells cancer and hepatocarcinoma

    identify differences in phosphate hormone behavior between renal cells cancer and hepatocarcinoma.

    Measured: one year

  2. Identify variations on bone mass during sorafenib treatment

    Assess Sorafenib effects on bone density and the relationship with phosphate related hormones

    Measured: one year

  3. Identify correlations between phosphate related hormones and side effects during sorafenib treatment as a Measure of safety and tolerability

    Identify the relationship between phpsphate hormones variation and Sorafenib side effects (e.g.asthenia, blood hypertension, skin toxicity).

    Measured: one year

  4. Identify correlations between phosphate related hormones variations and patients outcome (TTP and overall survival)

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Cancer and Liver Cancer, run by University of Turin, Italy at 1 site in Italy.

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 7 inclusion and 14 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 29 Oct 2010. 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 Italy. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Identify the value variations of hormones involved in phosphate homeostasis during sorafenib administration (time frame: one year). 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 29 Oct 2010.
