Trial summary

Gestational trophoblastic tumors are characterized by their development from placental tissue and their high invasive and metastatic potential. These are rare tumors (1/50 000 pregnancies) affecting young women for whom conservative fertility treatments are preferred. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prediction of Chemoresistance in Patients Treated for Gestational Trophoblastic Tumors

Gestational trophoblastic tumors are characterized by their development from placental tissue and their high invasive and metastatic potential. These are rare tumors (1/50 000 pregnancies) affecting young women for whom conservative fertility treatments are preferred. The therapeutic strategy is based on a chemotherapy whose choice of protocol is based on a clinico-biological score, FIGO score, which includes tumor size, gonadotropic chorionic hormone level used as quantitative tumor marker, number and localization. metastases. A FIGO score ≤6 allows the use of monochemotherapy (methotrexate) with a 5-year survival of approximately 99.7%. Scores of 7 to 12 and ≥13 require multidrug therapy (EMA-CO) and are associated with 5-year survival of 95.1% and 61.6%, respectively.

The chemotherapies currently used for the treatment of trophoblastic tumors have been described between the 1950s (methotrexate) and the 1980s (EMA-CO) and have a well documented toxicity regarding the risk of secondary tumors, early menopause or even death by toxicity. .

To date, apart from the FIGO score, there is no predictor of resistance to chemotherapy in gestational trophoblastic tumors. However, among patients with a FIGO score ≤6 and receiving methotrexate in the first line, 9 to 46% will have a resistance and require a second line of treatment. Similarly, if the score is ≥7, 10 to 30% of patients receiving EMA-CO will require at least a second line of multidrug therapy.

The hypothesis of PrediCTTro study is that tissue samples of gestational choriocarcinoma present a transcriptomic profile associated with the risk of further resistance to single or multiagent chemotherapy.

The objective of PrediCTTro is to identify a transcriptomic signature able to predict resistance to single or multiagent chemotherapy.

What is being measured

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

  1. Transcription profile associated with the resistance to chemotherapy

    The expression level of 800 genes involved in oncogenesis canonical pathways and immune tolerance will be assessed and correlated with the resistance to single or multiagent chemotherapy.

    Measured: 10 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Trophoblastic Tumor, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 5 Apr 2018. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Pierre-Adrien BOLZE, Dr (04 78 86 56 40 ext. +33, pierre-adrien.bolze@chu-lyon.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Transcription profile associated with the resistance to chemotherapy (time frame: 10 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 5 Apr 2018.
