Trial summary

Lung neuroendocrine tumor (LNT) represents approximately 20% of all lung cancers. The classification of LNT relies upon morphology. Recently, in the World Health Organization (WHO) classification, Ki-67 rate has been proposed for classi fication. Read more about this study

Study population: Between 2009 and 2014, 36 consecutive patients underwent a surgical resection or biopsy of pulmonary neuroendocrine tumor at University Hospital of Amiens: 5 cases of atypical carcinoid tumor; 13 cases of typical carcinoid tumor; 8 cases of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma; and 10 cases of large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. Clinical data were obtained from retrospective review of medical records: population characteristics (age, gender) and tumor size

About this study

Official title: GLUT1: A Novel Tool Reflecting Proliferative Activity of Lung Neuroendocrine Tumors

Lung neuroendocrine tumor (LNT) represents approximately 20% of all lung cancers. The classification of LNT relies upon morphology. Recently, in the World Health Organization (WHO) classification, Ki-67 rate has been proposed for classi fication. It is, however, known that Ki-67 count has a poor interlaboratory reproducibly. For that reason, our team has looked for a new biomarker.

GLUT1 protein a facilitative glucose transporter protein which has ubiquitous expression in mammalian. GLUT1 is overexpressed in many human cancers. But, no study has evaluated the GLUT1 staining as an aid diagnosis in LNT.

The team have assessed the GLUT1 immunohistochemical staining in 36 LNT and to assess its diagnostic value.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ImmunohistochemistryOther

    Immunohistochemistry of Glut1 expression was performed in these 36 cases of neuroendocrine tumor.

What is being measured

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

  1. Assess the GLUT1

    The objective of this study is to assess the GLUT1 staining in cohort of 36 cases of neuroendocrine tumors by immunohistochemistry and to assess its diagnostic interest.

    Measured: 5years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Tumor, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 17 Jun 2026. 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?

Assess the GLUT1 (time frame: 5years). 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 17 Jun 2026.
