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
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: All users attending Oncology Genetics outpatient clinics will be registered. The user population of these outpatient clinics includes all patients assessed for hereditary cancer risk regardless of age, gender, disease status and genetic testing. The register will include both the proband, i.e. the first person in the family to undergo an oncological genetic assessment, and any family members who perform the assessment subsequently.

Who may be able to join

  • participants aged 0 days or older at the time of genetic counselling
  • obtaining a signed informed consent

Who cannot join

  • misdiagnosis of oncological counselling during oncological genetic counselling

About this study

Official title: Registro Mono-istituzionale Di Individui Sottoposti a Valutazione Del Rischio Genetico Oncologico

Single-centre, retrospective, prospective observational cohort study, based on the registration of data from users of the Oncology Genetics Outpatient Clinic

Read the detailed description

The primary objective of this study is to establish a register to collect and update over time the clinical, genetic and socio-demographic data of all patients who will be assessed for a suspected oncological genetic predisposition, in order to acquire information that can be used for conducting specific studies aimed at clarifying the various uncertainties that still characterise these diseases, such as the clinical significance and the genotype-phenotype correlations of many alterations in oncological predisposition genes oncological predisposition genes, the clinical and bio-pathological features predictive of a significant probability of identifying mutations in these genes, the efficacy of surveillance and prevention measures undertaken to reduce the risk oncological risk according to guidelines, the effectiveness of oncological therapies in patients with hereditary tumours in comparison with those with sporadic neoplasms sporadic neoplasms, risk perception, emotional impact and also interpersonal experiences associated with oncological genetic risk assessment.

These are objectives of primary interest to both the patient and public health (given the general frequency of oncological diseases), because the information acquired will make it possible to improve the general clinical management of all cancer patients and their families.

What participants receive

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

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ProspectiveDuring oncology genetic counselling, together with the standard forms usually applied, the information sheet concerning participation in the register will also be sent to users who meet the inclusion criteria.
RetrospectiveFor patients who underwent oncological genetic counselling before the start of the registry, retrospective recruitment will be carried out by means of re-contact for the purpose of proposing joining the registry.

What is being measured

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

  1. Register and follow up over time individuals assessed for suspected genetic predisposition to cancer

  1. Possibility of conducting studies targeted at specific objectives

    Acquire information that can be used for conducting specific studies aimed at clarifying the various uncertainties that still characterize these cancer diseases due to genetic predisposition

    Measured: 15 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Genetic Predisposition to Cancer, run by IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna at 1 site in Italy.

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 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: enrolling by invitation, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 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 Italy. 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?

Register and follow up over time individuals assessed for suspected genetic predisposition to cancer (time frame: 15 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 30 Jan 2025.
