Trial summary

The investigators hypothesized that Non Hodgkin lymphoma is using T helper 2 pathways. So that the investigators decided to study of cytokines related to T helper 2 pathways. It is well known that parasites and allergic situations also use T helper 2 pathways. Read more about this study

  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: 31 newly diagnosed non hodgkin lymphoma and 27 healthy controls. We studied IL-10 and IL-4 in lymphoma group and healthy group and observed patients till end of study. We analised survival. We compared with IL-4 and IL-10 levels with prognostic factors.

About this study

Official title: Aggressive Non-Lymphoma and T Helper 2 Cytokines Relationship With Prognostic Markers

The investigators hypothesized that Non Hodgkin lymphoma is using T helper 2 pathways. So that the investigators decided to study of cytokines related to T helper 2 pathways. It is well known that parasites and allergic situations also use T helper 2 pathways. Because that the investigators excluded the patients have parasites and allergic situations. All the patients were over 18. The investigators included the patients with non Hodgkin lymphoma which new diagnosed. It is observational study. The investigators took blood before chemotherapy and four months later. The investigators did not interfere with which chemotherapy will be given to patients. This decision was belong to hematologist or oncologist who will treat the patient.

What is being measured

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

  1. Interleukin 4 and Interleukin 10 levels as pg/mL in non hodgkin lymphoma

    We will measure 31 patients and 27 healthy person's Interleukin 4 and Interleukin 10 levels as pg/mL at the beginning of the study. We determined all of the patients IPI score, LDH (U/L), crp (mg/L), erythrocyte sedimentation rate, hemoglobin (gr/dL), lymphocyte count in per µL, albumin (gr/dL) before the treatment. We wanted to check whether there is any correlation between well known prognostic markers (LDH, crp, albumin, stage, ECOG performance status) and Interleukin-4 and interleukin-10 levels.

    Measured: This study ended within 13 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. survey as months

    Our secondary goal was to determine the survey time as month from diagnoses to die from any reason or last evaluation during our study which was 13 months.

    Measured: During study which was 13 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lymphoma, run by Nil Guler at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 2 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jul 2012. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

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?

Interleukin 4 and Interleukin 10 levels as pg/mL in non hodgkin lymphoma (time frame: This study ended within 13 months). 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 13 Jul 2012.
