About this study

Official title: Assessment of New Fluorescence Imagery Techniques Using Prostate Chips From Transurethral Resections.

The aim of this study is divided in 4 different steps:

  • the first step has two different purpose: assess the impact of the storage medium of fresh prostatic chips on fluorescence signal and adjust the entire chain (immunolabelling,counter-stain and imaging),
  • the second step is the adaptation of immunolabelling protocol on histopathology slides, using fresh prostatic tissue,
  • the third step is to validate the use of:

  1. the medical device created by the FEMTO-ST institute use for the detection of fluorescence signal on fresh tissue,
  2. the Light-CT scanner use for tissue structural observation.
  • the four step is to check the preservation of morphological structure of tissue under the effect of laser excitation from the medical device.
Conditions

What participants receive

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

  • Trans-urethral resectionProcedure or surgery

    All subjects of the study are going to have a trans-urethral resection of prostate.

  • Use of the FEMTO-ST institute medical deviceDevice

    The FEMTO-ST institute medical device is use to detect prostatic and malignant tissue.

  • Use of the Light-CT scannerDevice

    The Light-CT Scanner is use in the tissue structural observation

Study groups in NCT02185170
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Fluorescence assesmentExperimentalAll patients undergo a transurethral resection. There are four different steps in the study: * the first step: fresh prostatic tissue of 30 subjects will be use to asses the fluorescence signal and the entire chain, * the second step: fresh prostatic tissue of 10 subjects will be used to asses the immunolabelling protocol, * the third step: fresh prostatic tissue of 20 subjects will be used to asses the use of the FEMTO-ST institute medical device, * the four step: the fresh prostatic tissue from the 10 subjects of the second step will be evaluated to verify the preservation of morphological structure with the use of the Light-CT scanner.
Receives: Procedure: Trans-urethral resection; Device: Use of the FEMTO-ST institute medical device; Device: Use of the Light-CT scanner

What is being measured

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

  1. Complete fluorescence measurement over each field of vision.

    Determinate for the anti-PSMA antibody with Alexa Fluor 488 tracer, the ideal couple of antibody concentration/incubation time giving the highest immunofluorescent signal in the adjustment of fixed tissue sample protocol to fresh tissue sample protocol.

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Complete fluorescence measurement over each field of vision.

    Determinate for the anti-PSMA antibody with R-Phycoerythrin tracer, the ideal couple of antibody concentration/incubation time giving the highest immunofluorescent signal in the adjustment of fixed tissue sample protocol to fresh tissue sample protocol.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Quality criteria of the structure of tissue (ordinal qualitative variables).

    Verification of the preservation of morphological structure of tissue under the effect of laser excitation from the medical device.

    Measured: 1 day

  3. Fluorescence measurements mean.

    Validate the medical device from "FEMTO-ST institute" for the detection of fluorescence signals on fresh prostatic tissue.

    Measured: 1 day

  4. Comparison of prostatic chips tissue architecture between the images from the Light-CT scanner and standard histopathology slides

    Validate the Light-CT scanner from LLTech laboratory in the fresh prostatic tissue structural observation

    Measured: 1 day

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted9 Jul 2014 (estimated)
  2. Study startJul 2014

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Trans-urethral resection, Use of the FEMTO-ST institute medical device and Use of the Light-CT scanner in people with Prostate Cancer, run by University Hospital, Grenoble at 1 site in France.

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 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Sep 2015. 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 France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Results of 5 first patients show that chips' cauterization interferes the signal). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Complete fluorescence measurement over each field of vision. (time frame: 1 day). 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 Sep 2015.
