About this study

Official title: Expression of T Immunoregulatory Proteins in ALK+ Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma (ALCL)

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer. it may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.

PURPOSE: This research trial studies biomarker expression in tissue samples from young patients with anaplastic large cell lymphoma.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine the expression of immunoregulatory proteins including CD4, FOXP3 and CD276 in anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL).
  • To correlate the expression of these proteins with the levels of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) autoantibodies in patient of ANHL0131.

OUTLINE: Archived tissue microarray samples are analyzed by mass spectrometry and validated by Western blotting, flow cytometry, and IHC.

Conditions

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lymphoma, run by Children's Oncology 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 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?

Expression of immunoregulatory proteins including CD4, FOXP3 and CD276 in ALCL. 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.
