About this study

Official title: RELATIONSHIP OF LOW-OVER RESERVE WITH PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 GENE EXPRESSION IN THE PRESENCE OF ENDOMETRIOMAS

In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 gene expression and decrease in ovarian reserve in the presence of endometrioma and other benign ovarian pathologies.

Read the detailed description

It is known that the presence of endometrioma negatively affects ovarian reserve. The development of endometriosis and the effect of the presence of endometrioma on ovarian reserve due to decreased PTEN expression are considered. This study was designed to compare ovarian PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 gene expression and ovarian reserve in patients with underwent surgery caused by endometrioma and those who had ovarian pathology due to other benign causes and PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 gene expression level will be evaluated by RT-PCR analysis.

What participants receive

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

  • PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 Gene ExpressionGenetic

    In the patient and patient control groups, 0.5 mm tissue strip will be removed for pathology from the cyst wall removed during surgery. and tissue samples will be stored in phosphate buffered saline at -80 C and PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 gene expression level will be evaluated by RT-PCR analysis.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
PATİENCE GROUP1. To be in the range of 18-40 years 2. Patients with an operation indication with >=5 cm endometrioma 1. Symptomatic patients due to endometrioma (dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, chronic pelvic pain, etc.) 2. Patients who will be followed for IVF cycle due to infertility
Receives: Genetic: PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 Gene Expression
PATİENCE-CONTROL GROUP1. To be in the range of 18-40 years 2. Patients with operation plan due to non-endometrioma ovarian pathologies 1. Symptomatic patients with benign ovarian pathology (such as chronic pelvic pain, compression, syphilomas, dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, etc.) 2. Asymptomatic, despite a 6-month follow-up period, increase in cyst size or become symptomatic
Receives: Genetic: PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 Gene Expression

What is being measured

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

  1. PTEN AKT FOXO3 gene expression

    In the patient and patient control groups, 0.5 mm tissue strip will be removed for pathology from the cyst wall removed during surgery. and tissue samples will be stored in phosphate buffered saline at -80 C and PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 gene expression level will be evaluated by RT-PCR analysis.

    Measured: 30 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Reserve, Endometrioma, PTEN-AKT-FOXO3 Gene Expression, run by Uludag University at 2 sites 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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

Contact HAMZA F SEN, MD (+90 544 3939159, hamzafurkansen@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PTEN AKT FOXO3 gene expression (time frame: 30 minutes). 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 NCT04058912, which also lists 2 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 16 Aug 2019.
