About this study

Official title: Pivotal Validation Study of Salivary Biomarkers for the Risk Stratification of Patients With Lesions Suspicious for Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma

The purpose of this study is to verify the discriminatory value of previously identified salivary transcriptome and proteome markers for oral squamous cell cancer in an intended use population of patients with oral lesions suspicious for cancer.

Read the detailed description

Saliva samples are collected from patients before clinically driven oral biopsy for lesions suspicious for cancer. Specimens are processed by laboratory personnel blinded to the tissue diagnosis. Six pre-specified mRNA markers (IL1b, IL8, SAT, DUSP1, OAZ1 and S100P) are measured by polymerase chain reaction. Markers are compared in cancer and control by raw Ct values as well as by delta Ct after adjustment for housekeeping gens. Appropriate housekeeping genes are identified in a random subset of cancer and control patients and then verified in the remaining subjects. Predictive models are generated by a pre-specified method and robustness evaluated by bootstrap analysis. The model is then further validated in a second cohort. Three pre-specified protein markers (IL8, IL1B, and M2BP) are a secondary endpoint and will also be compared in cancer and control patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Test specificity at 90% sensitivity

    Based on multimarker test score

    Measured: at study completion as well as after model development following enrollment of the first 30 patents with cancer

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Validation of individual mRNA and protein markers

    Based on comparison of cancer and controls

    Measured: After enrollment of 30 patients with cancer

  2. Validation of a pre-specified multi marker model

    Based on combined sensitivity and specificity

    Measured: After enrollment of 30 patients with cancer

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma, run by PeriRx at 5 sites in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 12 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in United States. 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?

Test specificity at 90% sensitivity (time frame: at study completion as well as after model development following enrollment of the first 30 patents with cancer). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01587573, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 12 Apr 2018.
