Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with ovarian carcinomaSerum levels of trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), secreted frizzled related protein 4 (sFRP-4), reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB of patients with a presumed diagnosis of ovarian carcinoma will be determined prior to surgery.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: TFF3, SFRP4, Romo1, NFKB
Control groupSerum levels of trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), secreted frizzled related protein 4 (sFRP-4), reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB of women without any adnexal mass nor malignancy will be determined to compare with other groups.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: TFF3, SFRP4, Romo1, NFKB
Benign adnexal massSerum levels of trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), secreted frizzled related protein 4 (sFRP-4), reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB of women with an adnexal mass will be determined to compare with other groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Efficacy of serum levels of trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), secreted frizzled related protein 4 (sFRP-4), reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) and nuclear factor (NF)-Κb in discrimination of benign and malignant gynecologic disease

    To measure serum levels of trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), secreted frizzled related protein 4 (sFRP-4), reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) and nuclear factor (NF)-κB between groups and to identify a possible significant diagnostic marker

    Measured: 2 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Efficacy of serum levels of trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), secreted frizzled related protein 4 (sFRP-4), reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) and nuclear factor (NF)-Κb in predicting overall survival and disease-free survival

    To determine any relationship between prognosis of ovarian cancer and serum levels of four different biomarkers

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Endometrial Neoplasms and Ovarian Neoplasms, run by Ilker Kahramanoglu 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 1 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 26 Feb 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 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?

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?

Efficacy of serum levels of trefoil factor 3 (TFF3), secreted frizzled related protein 4 (sFRP-4), reactive oxygen species modulator 1 (Romo1) and nuclear factor (NF)-Κb in discrimination of benign and malignant gynecologic disease (time frame: 2 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03112733, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 26 Feb 2019.
