Trial summary

Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common gynecological neoplasms, being the second in incidence and third in mortality in Mexico. Recent studies show that EC molecular classification (Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network, 2013) serves to establish a more accurate prognosis in these patients and regulate… 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 years and older
  • Women only
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The investigators will evaluate samples from patients with endometrioid type EC treated between 2015-2019. Samples of patients over 18 years of age admitted to the cohort with a diagnosis of endometrioid-type EC are already collected and will be evaluated for exome sequencing (N=32) for the detection of POLE mutations.

Who may be able to join

None listed.

Who cannot join

  • Samples with CEE of non-endometroid type.
  • Samples from patients with double primary neoplasm, including carcinoma ductal in situ, squamous cell skin cancers, and cervical carcinoma in situ
  • History of malignancy < 5 years prior with no evidence of disease (i.e., remission).

About this study

Endometrial cancer (EC) is one of the most common gynecological neoplasms, being the second in incidence and third in mortality in Mexico. Recent studies show that EC molecular classification (Cancer Genome Atlas Research Network, 2013) serves to establish a more accurate prognosis in these patients and regulate therapeutic behavior in a personalized manner. However, there are no studies on EC molecular classification in Mexican women or its impact on prognosis and the possible modification of targeted treatment. The investigators will determine the molecular classification in EC by next-generation sequencing (NGS) to detect TP53 and POLE somatic mutations, and immunohistochemical detection of microsatellite instability (MSH2, MLH1, PMS1, PMS2, MSH6, and MSH3) in a cohort of patients with endometrioid-type EC, endometrioid subtype, attended at the Instituto Nacional de Cancerología - Mexico (INCan) and determine its impact on clinical prognosis.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will carry out a pilot study on patients with endometrioid type EC treated between 2015-2019. Samples of patients over 18 years of age admitted to the cohort with a diagnosis of endometrioid-type EC are already collected and will be evaluated for exome sequencing (N=32) and the detection of POLE mutations. DNA will be extracted using the "DNA/RNA AllPrep" kit (QIAGEN). Verification of adequate DNA extraction will be performed by quantifying using TapeStation (Agilent). Exome sequencing (N = 32 tumor samples and 32 somatic samples [leukocytes] from the same patient) will be carried out using Illumina's Nextera Rapid Capture Exome at Azenta Life Science (NJ, USA) following preset protocols and with a depth of 100X. The alignment and detection of variants will be done with the GATX-Mutect Suite (Broad Institute, USA) and the annotation of variant filtering with ANNOVAR. The identification of hotspots will be made according to Chen study. The immunohistochemistry (IHC) for microsatellite instability and overexpressed mutant TP53 (N = 94) will be done using established IHC protocols and will include MSH2, MLH1, PMS1, PMS2, MSH6, MSH3, and TP53.

What is being measured

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

  1. sequence the exome

    Molecular classification of endometroid-type endometrial cancer in Mexican participants based on POLE and TP53 mutations as well as makers of microsatellite instability (MSH2, MLH1, PMS1, PMS2, MSH6, and MSH3).

    Measured: 2024-2025

  2. Determine POLE mutations

    Determine POLE mutations by massive next-generation sequencing of a discovery cohort in patients with endometroid-type EC.

    Measured: 2024-2025

  3. Determine microsatellite instability

    To perform validation of POLE mutation by real-time PCR in a validation cohort of patients with endometroid-type EC.

    Measured: 2025-2026

  4. Validation

    To perform validation of POLE mutation by real-time PCR in a validation cohort of patients with endometroid-type EC.

    Measured: 2025-2026

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Overall survival

    To describe the overall survival of molecular types of endometroid-type EC in INCan patients.

    Measured: 2025-2026

  2. Disease-free surviva

    To describe the disease-free survival of the molecular types of endometroid-type EC in INCan patients.

    Measured: 2025-2026

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Endometrial Cancer, run by National Institute of Cancerología at 1 site in Mexico.

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 0 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Feb 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 Mexico. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact David F Cantu-de-León, PhD (+52-55-5628-0400 ext. 21016, dfcantu@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

sequence the exome (time frame: 2024-2025). The study lists 4 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 28 Feb 2024.
