About this study

Official title: Discovery and Validation of Wilms Tumor Markers Using Urine Proteomics

RATIONALE: Studying samples of urine from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial studies biomarkers in urine from patients with Wilms tumor.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To validate the prognostic performance of specific-candidate Wilms tumor markers by measuring their urinary concentration using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) in urine specimens collected at diagnosis from 50 patients with favorable histology Wilms tumor who relapsed and 50 patients who did not relapse.

OUTLINE: Urine specimens are analyzed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) for biomarkers.

Conditions
Kidney Cancer
Being tested
proteomic profiling, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, laboratory biomarker analysis, medical chart review
Keywords
stage II Wilms tumor, stage III Wilms tumor, recurrent Wilms tumor and other childhood kidney tumors
Medical subject headings
Kidney Neoplasms, Wilms Tumor

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Kidney Cancer, 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 11 Jul 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?

Wilms tumor biomarkers identified by ELISA. 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 11 Jul 2016.
