An observational study of Cholangiocarcinoma, run by Hadassah Medical Organization at 1 site in Israel.

Unknown status

Status not confirmed. The sponsor has not verified this record for over two years, so it may be out of date.

Trial summary

The investigators found an inverse relationship between CD24 and MiR-122 levels. Then the investigators found that CD24 that goes up with MiR-122 down makes macrophages unable to engulf the tumor cells. All this in mice. the investigators are interested in confirming this result in humans. Read more about this study

About this study

The investigators found an inverse relationship between CD24 and MiR-122 levels. Then the investigators found that CD24 that goes up with MiR-122 down makes macrophages unable to engulf the tumor cells. All this in mice. the investigators are interested in confirming this result in humans. Details of the preliminary results are attached to the submission of the research documents. the investigators will compare Cholangiocarcinoma tumors with other solid tumors, including liver tissue. The need to deepen understanding the investigators will also make a comparison between cancerous tissue and "normal" tissue adjacent to the tumor.

Read the detailed description

The investigators will collect samples from the tissue bank. All materials will be kept in refrigerators at minus 80, except for the sections of the paraffin blocks at room temperature. The source of some of the biological samples and the information accompanying them in this study is Midgem - the Israeli repository for biological samples for research. Midgem is a non-profit association that operates within the Ministry of Health as an infrastructure for the promotion of bioresearch - Medical and industrial in Israel. The donors to Midgem are patients with malignant diseases, Non-malignant diseases as well as healthy volunteers. In Midgem, residues are collected from tissues already removed during surgery/taking a biopsy and/or samples from blood/saliva/urine/other body fluids donations and the accompanying medical information required for use in legally approved studies.There is no risk to the donors as a result of the donation of the samples and information and their use, since the donation is transferred to Midgem only after it has been ascertained beyond any doubt that the ability of the diagnosis and/or treatment of the donors will not be harmed. All the information transferred to the researchers is coded, in such a way that the investigators do not allow the identification of the donors' details. Since the donors to Midgem have signed a consent form for the collection and storage of samples and information for use in any legally approved study, the investigators request an exemption from signing a dedicated informed consent form for this study. The samples and information transferred to this study are donated in accordance with what is detailed in the inclusion criteria for the experiment.

What is being measured

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

  1. the investigators will analyze ductular reaction and cancer stem cells markers including CD24, CD44

    the investigators will perform the analysis on tissue samples of cholangiocarcinoma and non tumor controls, using immunohistochemistry and RT-PCR

    Measured: All along the study, from the first recruitment to the last recruitment. average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cholangiocarcinoma, run by Hadassah Medical Organization at 1 site in Israel.

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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Mar 2025. 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 Israel. 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?

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?

the investigators will analyze ductular reaction and cancer stem cells markers including CD24, CD44 (time frame: All along the study, from the first recruitment to the last recruitment. average of 1 year). 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 14 Mar 2025.
