Trial summary

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the gastrointestinal system, especially in East Asia. A host of patients are diagnosed with GC at the late stage, leading to poor patient prognosis. Therefore, there is a strong demand to develop new biomarkers to detect this tumor early.

About this study

Official title: Screening of Small Non-coding RNAs as an Auxiliary Diagnostic Biomarker for Gastric Cancer and Exploring Its Correlation With Prognostic Diagnosis

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the gastrointestinal system, especially in East Asia. A host of patients are diagnosed with GC at the late stage, leading to poor patient prognosis. Therefore, there is a strong demand to develop new biomarkers to detect this tumor early. Small non-coding RNA species include microRNA (miRNA), PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA), etc. It has been demonstrated that small non-coding RNAs are involved in gastric cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, progression and survival. Hence, it is considered as an auxiliary diagnostic biomarker for gastric cancer.

Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies of the gastrointestinal system, especially in East Asia. A host of patients are diagnosed with GC at the late stage, leading to poor patient prognosis. Therefore, there is a strong demand to develop new biomarkers to detect this tumor early.

Small non-coding RNA species include microRNA (miRNA), PIWI-interacting RNA (piRNA), small interfering RNA (siRNA), tRNA-derived small RNA (tsRNA), etc. It has been demonstrated by previous scientific researches that small non-coding RNAs are involved in gastric cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, progression and survival. Hence, it is considered as a new biomarker panel for gastric cancer.

The purpose of the present clinical trail is to explore the correlation between small non-coding RNAs panel and early gastric cancer, and to elucidate the possibility of small non-coding RNAs panel as a biomarker for gastric cancer. Verify the experimental purpose by monitoring the relative quantification of small non-coding RNAs panel through high-throughput sequencing and qRT PCR technology.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stomach Neoplasms, run by Affiliated Hospital of Nantong 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 3 inclusion and 4 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jan 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 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?

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?

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?

Analysis of relative quantitative of small non-coding RNAs (time frame: an average of 2 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 15 Jan 2025.
