About this study

Collect 300 esophageal cancer tissue specimens, including cancer tissue and serum, from a biological sample bank. Collect clinical information on esophageal cancer, including gender, age, time of diagnosis, time of death, treatment information, TNM staging, tumor size, location, etc. DNA sequencing was performed on 300 collected esophageal cancer samples, divided into mutant and wild-type types. Perform immunohistochemistry on tissue slices and observe the expression of P53 mutant protein. ELISA was used to study the expression of serum anti-P53 autoantibodies. Process these data and use them to classify subtypes of esophageal cancer. Associate each subtype with clinical information, analyze the characteristics of each subtype, such as the multidimensional features of P53 and treatment correlation analysis, and the correlation between P53 multidimensional features and survival.

Specific research design

  1. Collect information on all clinical cases of esophageal cancer in the study, including gender, age, time of diagnosis, time of death, treatment information, TNM staging, tumor size, location, etc.
  2. Perform DNA sequencing on the collected esophageal cancer tissue samples, identify gene mutation sites, and group them according to different types of mutations.
  3. Perform ELISA on the collected serum of esophageal cancer patients to distinguish between groups with negative and positive autoantibodies.
  4. Perform immunohistochemistry on tumor tissue slices collected from esophageal cancer patients, observe the expression of mutant P53 protein, and obtain samples with positive immunohistochemistry for P53 protein.
  5. Based on the presence or absence of P53 mutations, the expression of mutant P53 protein in immunohistochemistry, and the positive or negative autoantibodies in serum, further subtype classification criteria will be developed.
  6. Associate different subtypes of esophageal cancer with clinical and pathological features, identify their respective characteristics, and provide guidance for clinical diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. Univariate and multivariate survival analysis of clinical pathological parameters and the correlation between this subtype and DFS and OS in cancer patients; Kaplan Meier curve analysis of the relationship between this subtype and patient survival, as well as its expression for cancer risk assessment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of P53 Mutation in Esophageal Cancer, run by Ling Zhiqiang 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jul 2026. 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?

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?

Time from surgery to death from any cause (for Overall Survival) or to disease recurrence/local-regional failure (for Recurrence-Free Survival). (time frame: Data collected up to December 31, 2024). 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 23 Jul 2026.
