Trial summary

Colorectal carcinoma is a major bublic health problem. It is due to several genetic mutations. Wilms' tumor1 (WT1) gene is a tumor suppressor gene that has been mutated in several human tumors. Detection of WT1 in colorectal carcinoma may provide better future results. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Significance of Immunohistochemical Expression of Wilms' Tumor 1 (WT1) in Colorectal Adenocarcinoma

Colorectal carcinoma is a major bublic health problem. It is due to several genetic mutations. Wilms' tumor1 (WT1) gene is a tumor suppressor gene that has been mutated in several human tumors. Detection of WT1 in colorectal carcinoma may provide better future results.

Read the detailed description

Colorectal adenocarcinoma represents one third of human caners worldwide. It results from cumulative genetic mutations. the incidence of colorectal carcinoma is rising, so, detecting new therapeutic modalities is important. Wilms' Tumor 1 (WT1) gene is a tumor suppressor gene. in certain tumors; WT1 acts as an oncogene, facilitating tumor growth and spread. WT1 is also involved in angiogenesis. we decided to detect expression of WT1 in 60 patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma and detect any association between WT1 expression and certain tumor oarameters as perineural invasion, lymphovascular invasion, lymph node metastasis.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Cancer, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 21 Aug 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 Egypt. 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?

detection of WT1 in colorectal adenocarcinoma (time frame: 6 months). 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 21 Aug 2026.
