About this study

Official title: A Genome-Wide Association Study in Wilms Tumor

This clinical trial studies gene analysis in studying susceptibility to Wilms tumor. Finding genetic markers for Wilms tumor may help identify patients who are at risk of relapse.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To use a genome-wide association analysis to identify novel genetic variants that confer susceptibility to Wilms tumor.

II. To improve our understanding of the genetic architecture and etiology of Wilms tumor.

III. To facilitate the identification of genetic markers that are associated with an increased risk of developing of Wilms tumor and/or those at risk of aggressive disease, relapse, additional tumors and/or cancer in their offspring.

OUTLINE:

Samples are analyzed for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) profiling using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA).

What is being measured

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

  1. Frequencies between cases and controls at each SNP

    Compared using the Cochran Armitage trend test (1-df). The data will be analyzed individually for the UK/US study populations and combined using a Mantel-Haenszel analysis adjusting for study group, and related methods which allow for different effects in each population (for confirmed loci, we will compare effects across populations).

    Measured: Baseline

  2. Frequency of maternal and paternal allelic transmission for risk alleles

    Compared using a chi-squared test.

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Genetic variation on sub-phenotypes such as age at diagnosis, unilateral or bilateral disease, sex, and ethnicity

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Interactions between genetic variation and treatment success or prognosis

    Measured: Baseline

  5. Interactions between germline genetic variation and tumor phenotypes

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Recurrent Childhood Kidney Neoplasm and Stage I Kidney Wilms Tumor, run by Children's Oncology Group at 1 site 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 0 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 22 Aug 2016. 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 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?

Frequencies between cases and controls at each SNP (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 5 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 22 Aug 2016.
