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 Any age
  • All sexes
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: The present work will be performed on archived formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded renal cell carcinoma tissue blocks that were belonged to 55 patients who were admitted to Sohag University Hospital because of loin/ back pain, from January 1st,2017 to December 31st, 2021. Radiological evaluation revealed renal neoplasms and patients underwent radical nephrectomies.

Who may be able to join

  • All cases of ccRCC.
  • Tissue blocks with material adequate for immunohistochemical evaluation.
  • All cases with accessible clinical data.

Who cannot join

  • Cases of renal neoplasms other than ccRCC.
  • Patients who received preoperative chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
  • Patients with ccRCC who were diagnosed by tru-cut biopsies only and didn't undergo radical operations.
  • Cases with insufficient/destructed material.
  • Patients with inadequate clinical data.

About this study

Official title: Expression and Distribution of Membrane-Organizing Extension Spike Protein (Moesin/ MSN) is Associated With Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most frequently occurring primary renal neoplasm. There are several histological variants of RCC that are associated with variable prognostic outcomes. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a phenomenon in which the epithelial cells acquire some mesenchymal criteria as enhanced invasive potential. There are several cell surface molecules that are implicated in EMT. Moesin is one of these molecules that is involved in EMT, which is associated with enhanced invasive potential and poor prognosis. Targeting Moesin by novel therapeutic agents may prevent EMT and improve prognosis of patients with RCC.

What participants receive

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

  • Immunohistochemical detection of Moesin in Clear cell Renal Cell CarcinomaGenetic

    Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded renal cell carcinoma tissue blocks will be sectioned and immunohistochemically stained by anti moesin antibody.

What is being measured

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

  1. Detection of Moesin in renal cell carcinoma

    different levels of moesin expression will be correlated with some tumor characteristics as patients' ages, sexes, tumor site, tumor grades, stages and nodal statuses.

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Renal Cell Carcinoma, run by Sohag University.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Detection of Moesin in renal cell carcinoma (time frame: 6 months). 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 28 Sep 2023.
