Trial summary

It has recently been shown that various HSPs are strongly expressed in B lymphomas. Indeed, HSP90 stabilizes the protein Bcl-6 in diffuse large-cell B lymphomas. Pharmacological inhibition of HSP90 in vitro induced apoptosis in lymphoma cells (Cerchietti et al. Nat. Medicine, 2009, 1369-1376). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Single-centre Study of the Expression of Heat Shock Proteins in the Lymphocytes From the Tonsils of Patients With Various Diseases Requiring Tonsillectomy

It has recently been shown that various HSPs are strongly expressed in B lymphomas. Indeed, HSP90 stabilizes the protein Bcl-6 in diffuse large-cell B lymphomas. Pharmacological inhibition of HSP90 in vitro induced apoptosis in lymphoma cells (Cerchietti et al. Nat. Medicine, 2009, 1369-1376). In addition, HSP110 is strongly expressed in non-Hodgkin lymphomas, and targeting this HSP at the cell surface using specific antibodies could constitute a future therapy (Zappasodi et al. Blood, 2011, 4421-4430). Despite the importance of these proteins in the development of lymphomas, their expression and their role in the activation of normal B lymphocytes and the normal development of germinal centres is not known.

The expression of Heat shock proteins should vary among the different B lymphocyte populations present in the tonsils (naïve B cells, memory B cells, germinal centre B cells).

The aim of this study is to establish an expression profile for heat shock proteins in populations of B lymphocytes in human tonsils

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing tonsillectomy and blood sample in people with Tonsillectomy, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire Dijon 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 2 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jan 2019. 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 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?

expression of heat shock proteins (time frame: Day one). 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 10 Jan 2019.
