About this study

Official title: PREDICTING MALIGNANT MESOTHELIOMA BY ANALYZING HYALURONAN, OSTEOPONTIN, C-ERC/MESOTHELIN, N-ERC/MESOTHELIN AND SYNDECAN-1 SERUM LEVELS

In this study, the investigators analyzed the efficiencies of hyaluronan, osteopontin, C-ERC/mesothelin, N-ERC/mesothelin and syndecan-1 serum levels, both individually and in combination, in distinguishing malignant pleural mesothelioma patients from patients with metastatic malignant pleural diseases, benign pleural diseases, and benign asbestos pleurisy.

Read the detailed description

In the year 2002, a database for the pleural diseases was constructed to be prospectively filled in the department. The findings, outcome features and characteristics of follow-up for all cases with pleural diseases have been recorded in this database. The patient data, including epidemiological characteristics, smoking status, history of other diseases and co-morbid conditions, previous asbestos exposure, medications and additional physical and radiological examination findings, including computed tomography scans, both serum and pleural fluid laboratory investigational data and indications of invasive procedures, were recorded in the database mentioned above. The methods employed in the diagnosis of patients; any complications; characteristics such as the stages of diseases, treatments, and course of treatments; and results were also recorded in the database. From the date of the first database establishment, a "tissue, blood, serum, and fluid specimen bank" was constructed; tissue, blood, serum and pleural fluid samples of patients, which had been taken at the beginning of diagnosis process, were stored in this bank at -80°C. The blood, serum, and pleural fluid samples of patients were stored during the diagnosis process, and if conducted, pleural tissue samples taken during invasive procedures were also stocked.

What is being measured

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

  1. Serum N-ERC/mesothelin, C-ERC/mesothelin, hyaluronan, osteopontin and syndecan -1 level in the patients with mesothelioma, metastatic malignant pleural diseases, benign pleural diseases, and benign asbestos pleurisy.

    The levels of N-ERC/mesothelin, C-ERC/mesothelin, hyaluronan, osteopontin, and syndecan-1 in the serum samples were established by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assays (ELISA) at the Division of Pathology, Department of LABMED, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden.

    All analyses were performed in duplicate by researchers who were unaware of the patient diagnoses. The human N-ERC/mesothelin and osteopontin. ELISA kits were supplied by Immuno-Biological Laboratories Co. Ltd. Japan; the C-ERC/mesothelin ELISA kit was supplied by (MESOMARK™) FDI Fujirebio Diagnostics, Inc.; the hyaluronan ELISA kit (Ref. 029-001) was supplied by Corgenix company; and the syndecan-1 ELISA kit (catalog no. 950.640.096) was supplied by the Diaclone company. Analyses were conducted using a sensitivity TM XS Microplate Sample Processor manufactured by Bio-Tek Instruments Inc (Vermont, USA) in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The C-ERC/mesothelin levels were determined at nanomolar levels due

    Measured: From January 2004 to December 2010

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Mesothelioma, run by Eskisehir Osmangazi University 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 7 Jan 2014. 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?

Serum N-ERC/mesothelin, C-ERC/mesothelin, hyaluronan, osteopontin and syndecan -1 level in the patients with mesothelioma, metastatic malignant pleural diseases, benign pleural diseases, and benign asbestos pleurisy. (time frame: From January 2004 to December 2010). 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 7 Jan 2014.
