What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • tumor specimensOther

    All consenting patients (Consent 1) will participate in an anonymized assessment of the prevalence of germline BAP1 mutations. Available tumor specimens from patients with MPM and metastatic uveal melanoma will be tested for BAP1 mutation. Patients whose tumors harbor BAP1 mutations and/or meet the criteria for germline mutation specified in 2.2.2 will be approached for identified germline BAP1 testing after appropriate pre-test counseling (Consent 2).

    Patients who, through identified testing, are found to have germline BAP1 mutations will be asked to invite their relatives to participate in germline testing (Consent 3). First-degree relatives and any relatives with a malignancy will be prioritized. Expanding testing to family members of patients with BAP1 germline mutations is essential to delineate the penetrance and describe the various manifestations of this new cancer predisposition syndrome.

Receives: Other: tumor specimens

What is being measured

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

  1. determine the prevalence of germline BAP1 mutations

    Prevalence will be estimated as the proportion of all specimens who tested positive for mutation, and reported along with the corresponding exact 95% confidence intervals.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. prevalence of somatic BAP1 mutations in disease mesothelioma and metastatic uveal melanoma.

    The frequency of somatic mutations will be tabulated by factors of interest such as:

    • personal and familial risk factors: age, smoking, and asbestos mesothelioma, personal and family history of cancer or of related diseases (mesothelioma and metastatic uveal melanoma)
    • disease characteristics: histology, stage, location, site of metastasis (if present) (for mesothelioma and metastatic uveal melanoma); COMS criteria, GEP class, number of clinical risk factors (for metastatic uveal melanoma)

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) and Choroidal Nevus, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 2 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 35 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 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?

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?

determine the prevalence of germline BAP1 mutations (time frame: 2 years). 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 1 Jul 2020.
