About this study

Official title: Validation of Circulating Biomarkers Using the Immunological Multiparameter Chip Technology (IMPACT) on Plasma Specimens Collected on CALGB 80303

RATIONALE: Studying plasma samples from patients with pancreatic cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify and learn more about biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This research trial studies biomarkers in samples from patients with pancreatic cancer treated on study CALGB-80303.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

  • To determine whether the observed predictive value of plasma VEGF-A and VEGF-R2 for overall survival (OS) in study BO17706 can be replicated in study CALGB-80303 using the same Immunological Multiparameter Chip Technology (IMPACT) assay.
  • To determine whether the observed predictive value of plasma VEGF-A and VEGF-R2 for progression-free survival (PFS), and other circulating biomarkers in study BO17706, can be replicated in study CALGB-80303 using the same IMPACT assay.
  • To explore the relationship between efficacy and other biomarkers measured in the plasma samples.

OUTLINE: The samples required for this study are stored in the CALGB Pathology Coordinating Office at The Ohio State University from patients enrolled on protocol CALGB-80303. No additional samples are required from patients.

The following markers are analyzed in EDTA plasma samples using the Immunological MultiParameter Chip Technology (IMPACT) a Roche proprietary multiplex enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) platform: VEGF-A, VEGF-C, VEGF-R1, VEGF-R2, E-selectin, VEGF-R3, IL-8, bFGF, PDGF-C, ICAM-1, and PlGF.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pancreatic Cancer, run by Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology.

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 2 Jul 2019. 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?

Overall survival (time frame: 1 month). The study lists 3 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 2 Jul 2019.
