About this study

Official title: Correlation Study of Blood and Tissue Thioredoxin Reductase Activity in Early Stage On-small Cell Lung Cancers

In pre-clinical study the investigators found that the thioredoxin reductase activity of serum harbours huge difference between cancer patients and non-cancer patients, the enzyme activity elevated remarkably among cancer patients, so the investigators hypothesis that this is due to tumor cells loading of the patients, the enzyme activity may harbours huge difference between carcinoma tissues and para-carcinoma tissues in early staged non-small cell lung cancers, and after surgery, the enzyme activity may fall down to a normal level because of removing of tumor.

Read the detailed description

This is a cooperative research project in Thoracic Surgery Department and Medical Oncology Department of Affiliated Cancer Hospital of xiangya School of Medicine Central South University, and the State Key Laboratory for Natural Medicine and Biomimetic Drugs Perking University. The primary objective is to measure the thioredoxin reductase activity using blood and lung cancer tissue and measure thioredoxin reductase messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) and protein expression using lung cancer and pericarcinomatous tissue in early staged(Ⅰ~ⅢA) non-small lung cancers, to study the correlations of thioredoxin reductase between blood and tissue. The secondary objectives are to measure the thioredoxin reductase activity between non small lung cancers and lung benign lesion patients to identify the difference between tumor and lung benign mass.

What is being measured

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

  1. measure the thioredoxin reductase activity in blood, tumor and pericarcinomatous tissue

    3-4 ml blood should be taken and centrifuged in 30 mins, then the serum should be stored at -20 degree, then serum thioredoxin reductase activity should be measured in one month. Tumor and pericarcinomatous tissues should be stored at -180 degree and enzyme activity should be measured within one month

    Measured: blood should be taken in 2 days before surgery, tumor and pericarcinomatous tissues should be stored and tested in one month

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Measure the difference of thioredoxin reductase activity between lung cancer tissue and lung benign mass

    Tumor tissue or lung benign mass obtained during surgery should be stored at -180 degree within 5 mins and enzyme activity should be measured within one month.

    Measured: Tumor tissue or lung benign mass obtained during surgery should be stored at -180 degree within 5 mins and enzyme activity should be measured within one month

  2. Measure the thioredoxin reductase mRNA and protein expression in tumor and pericarcimomatous tissue

    Tumor tissue or pericarcimomatous tissue should be stored at -180 degree, then qRT-PCR should be done within 3 months

    Measured: Tumor tissue or pericarcimomatous tissue should be stored at -180 degree, then qRT-PCR should be done within 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer and Benign Neoplasm of Lung, run by Hunan Province Tumor Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 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 17 Feb 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 China. 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?

measure the thioredoxin reductase activity in blood, tumor and pericarcinomatous tissue (time frame: blood should be taken in 2 days before surgery, tumor and pericarcinomatous tissues should be stored and tested in one month). 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 17 Feb 2016.
