Trial summary

the main purpose is to study the prognostic effect of PDL1 in ovarian cancer especially HGSC. Therefore, in the present study the investigators analyzed the expression of PDL1in HGSC by immunohistochemistry, and results were correlated to prognosis. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prognostic Value of PDL1 in Ovarian High Grade Serous Carcinoma

the main purpose is to study the prognostic effect of PDL1 in ovarian cancer especially HGSC. Therefore, in the present study the investigators analyzed the expression of PDL1in HGSC by immunohistochemistry, and results were correlated to prognosis.

Read the detailed description

this cross-sectional study on 54 specimens of primary ovarian high grade serous carcinoma cases who attended to Oncology Centre, Mansoura University, Mansoura, Egypt in the period from 2012 till 2019. The cases were chosen randomly. All clinicopathological data including tumor stage (T), L.N metastases (N), metastasis (M), (FIGO) staging system, ascites, recurrence, residual tumor, CEA level, CA125 level, and peritoneal deposits analyzed. The investigator followed the clinical outcomes in the form of disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS). The mean duration of follow up will be 43.4 months. The OS were calculated from the time of diagnosis to death. DFS is the time from the end of therapy to first recurrence or metastases. the specimens were stained with PDL1 marker in pathology department Port Said university.

Statistical analysis: Data was analyzed using SPSS software V.16. Continuous data was presented in the form of mean (SD) or Median (min-max) according to the results of Shapiro-Wilk testing for the assumptions of normal distributions of data. Categorical data will be presented in the form of frequencies and percentages. Statistical significance will be tested by Welch's t-test, or Mann-Whitney U for continuous data (with respect to presence or absence of normal distribution of data). Also, chi square test or Fisher's Exact Test will be performed for categorical data (with respect to the minimal expected values in the contingencies tables). Correlations of different tumour markers will be calculated using Spearman's rho Coefficient. Kaplan-Meier test was used to test for overall survival and disease free survival of patients with respect to tumour expression of PDL1. Comparisons will be done using Log Rank (Mantel-Cox). Significance level is set at 0.05.

  • immunohistochemical stainingDiagnostic test

    immunohistochemical staining of programmed death-ligand 1 (PDL1) marker

What is being measured

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

  1. number of slides stained positive to PDL1 marker

    using immunohistochemical staining for PDL1 markers for all slides of cases with ovarian tumor

    Measured: 7 years from 2012 to 2019

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. correlation between PDL1 expression to clinicopathological parameters of ovarian high grade serous carcinoma

    correlation between PDL1 expression to criteria as ascites, peritoneal nodules and metastasis

    Measured: 7 years from 2012 to 2019

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Cancer, run by Port Said University hospital at 1 site in Egypt.

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 11 Aug 2020. 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 Egypt. 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?

number of slides stained positive to PDL1 marker (time frame: 7 years from 2012 to 2019). 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 11 Aug 2020.
