Expression of Molecular Markers in Circulating Tumor Cells of Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

An observational study of Prostate Cancer Metastatic, run by Fudan University at 1 site in China.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

As prostate cancer progresses into castration-resistant stage from initial hormone-sensitive status, the biological behavior of tumor cells that dissociated from primary lesions changed. Considered a "liquid biopsy," these circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can show how a patient's cancer responded to treatments. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Development of a Prognostic Model for High Volume Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer Patients by Sequentially Analyzing the Expression of Molecular Markers in Circulating Tumor Cells

As prostate cancer progresses into castration-resistant stage from initial hormone-sensitive status, the biological behavior of tumor cells that dissociated from primary lesions changed. Considered a "liquid biopsy," these circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can show how a patient's cancer responded to treatments. The purpose of this study is to determine whether sequentially analyzing the expression of molecular markers in high volume circulating tumor cells in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients can predict the therapeutic effects and outcomes of these patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. overall survival

    Overall survival was defined as the period of time from inclusion to death from any cause, or to the last follow up date.

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. time to prostate specific antigen (PSA) progression

    time from inclusion to prostate specific antigen (PSA) progression

    Measured: 2 years

  2. time to radiographic progression

    time from inclusion to radiographic progression

    Measured: 2 years

  3. complete serologic response rate at 3 month and 6 month

    prostate specific antigen response rate at 3 month and 6 month

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Prostate Cancer Metastatic, run by Fudan University 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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 May 2017. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Dai Bo, MD (+86-21 64175590, bodai1978@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

overall survival (time frame: 2 years). 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 1 May 2017.
