About this study

Official title: A Bidirectional Study in Exploring the Dynamic Changes of Plasma and Urine Metabolites During the Occurrence and Development of Head and Neck Cancer in Southern China

Dynamic changes in the internal environment of the body are important clues for early detection, diagnosis and even cure of head and neck tumors. This project uses the combination of proteomics technology and liquid biopsy to provide more primary prevention strategies for early intervention, secondary prevention strategies for early detection and treatment, and clues for the study of the mechanism of dynamic evolution of head and neck tumors.

Read the detailed description

Head and neck cancer is the seventh most common malignant tumor in the world, and China is a country with a high incidence of head and neck cancer. Dynamic changes in the internal environment of the body are important clues for early detection, diagnosis and even cure of head and neck tumors. The occurrence and development of head and neck cancer is complex, so it is particularly important to explore the changes of internal environment in its clinical pathway. Therefore, we conducted this study to investigate the changes of plasma and urine metabolites during the development of head and neck cancer.

(1) Retrospective cohort: 250 patients were recruited, including 125 patients with Head and neck cancer and 125 healthy people.,(2) Prospective cohort: 250 patients were recruited, including 125 head and neck cancer patients and 125 healthy people. During the course of the study, the subjects will not be given or provided with any randomized or any treatment driven by the study protocol. If it is clinically applicable, the treatment physician shall make the treatment decision and choose the treatment plan at his discretion.

Being tested
Proteomics technology and liquid biopsy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Head and Neck Cancer and Metabolite, run by Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 10 inclusion and 5 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 3 Aug 2023. 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 China. 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?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Achieve the expected number of enrolled cases (time frame: 3 years). 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 3 Aug 2023.
