About this study
Official title: A Study to Assess and Quantify Surface Insulin-like Growth Factor I Receptor (IGF-IR) in Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) Tumor Tissue
RATIONALE: Studying samples of 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.
PURPOSE: This research trial studies biomarkers in tumor tissue samples from patients with rhabdomyosarcoma.
Read the detailed description
OBJECTIVES:
- To determine and quantify the degree of surface insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) expression in rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) tumor tissue.
- To assess the feasibility and validity of a mass spectrometry assay for IGF-IR expression on paraffin-embedded tumor tissue.
OUTLINE: Paraffin-embedded tumor tissue slides are analyzed for insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-1R) expression by mass spectrometry and correlated with the results obtained by IHC assay.
- Conditions
- Sarcoma
- Being tested
- gene expression analysis, immunohistochemistry staining method, laboratory biomarker analysis, mass spectrometry

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Sarcoma, run by Children's Oncology Group.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 May 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?
Degree of surface IGF-IR expression in RMS tumor tissue. 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 2016.
