Trial summary

The occurrence and progression of lung cancer is related to visceral adipose tissue (VAT). Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a kind of VAT, producing a variety of inflammatory cytokines and adipokines, participating in the formation of local inflammation, promoting the formation of pre-thrombotic state, and leading… Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 70 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: This study was conducted on patients with a confirmed diagnosis of Lung Cancer who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2021. Patients who did not meet any of the inclusion criteria or met any of the exclusion criteria were excluded. The subjects were divided into PE group and control group according to the results of CTPA examination, and the patients in the two groups were matched by gender and age 1:1 tendency score.

Who may be able to join

  • The pathological diagnosis was lung cancer
  • Pulmonary artery was evaluated by CTA during hospitalization.

Who cannot join

  • Patients with incomplete clinical data
  • Patients with no follow-up data
  • Patients with a history of PE before diagnosis of lung cancer

About this study

The occurrence and progression of lung cancer is related to visceral adipose tissue (VAT). Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) is a kind of VAT, producing a variety of inflammatory cytokines and adipokines, participating in the formation of local inflammation, promoting the formation of pre-thrombotic state, and leading to the occurrence of thromboembolism. Patients with lung cancer have increased inflammatory response and are more prone to suffer thrombosis. However, in lung cancer patients, the clinical correlation between EAT and pulmonary embolism has not been reported. Objective: To analyze the risk factors of poor prognosis in lung cancer patients with PE, and to explore the predictive value of EAT in pulmonary embolism events and death in lung cancer patients. Methods: EAT volume and density, as well as anthropometric and blood biomarkers, were evaluated in a sample of lung cancer patients, half with pulmonary embolism and half without. The incidence of adverse prognosis and related factors were followed up by telephone.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pulmonary Embolism and Lung Cancer, run by First Affiliated Hospital Xi'an Jiaotong 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 2 inclusion and 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jul 2024. 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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

EAT volume (time frame: May, 20, 2023). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 22 Jul 2024.
