About this study

Official title: Relation of Genetic Polymorphism of ABCG2 Gene And Occurrence of Oxaliplatin - Induced Peripheral Neuropathy in Patients With Gastrointestinal Tract Cancer

This study will examine DNA from Gastrointestinal Tract of cancer patients treated with oxaliplatin to look for a variation (mutation) of the ABCG2 gene that may lead to drug-induced peripheral neuropathy in certain patients.

The DNA will be extracted from patients' blood samples and are analyzed for the ABCG2 single nucleotide polymorphism (G34A - rs2231137 and A/A -rs3114018 genotypes) and correlated with peripheral neuropathy grades.

Read the detailed description

Pharmacogenetic analysis/genotyping :

Genotyping is conducted via High Resolution Melting (HRM) TECHNIQUE, To confirm the genotyping results, the Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) product of the samples will be examine via direct sequencing using 3500 Genetic analyzer from ThermoFisher (applied biosystem) at two ABCG2 loci using the following PCR primers:

1-ABCG2 G34A - rs2231137

Forward :

5'-TGC AAT CTC ATT TAT CTG GAC TA-'3

Reverse :

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation of single nucleotide polymorphisms of ABCG2 gene (G34A - rs2231137 and A/A -rs3114018 genotypes) with peripheral neuropathy grades, using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTCAE)

    Peripheral Neuropathy Toxicity will be assessed every cycle for six months using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTCAE). Patients will be assigned to 4 groups according to the grades of neuropathy.

    Measured: After 6 cycles of chemotherapy (each cycle is15 days), for six months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastrointestinal Tract Cancer and Peripheral Neuropathy, run by Ain Shams University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Nov 2023. 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 Egypt. 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?

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?

Correlation of single nucleotide polymorphisms of ABCG2 gene (G34A - rs2231137 and A/A -rs3114018 genotypes) with peripheral neuropathy grades, using the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTCAE) (time frame: After 6 cycles of chemotherapy (each cycle is15 days), for six months). 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 28 Nov 2023.
