About this study

Official title: The Incidence, Inheritance, and Prognostic Significance of Polymorphisms in the RASSF1A Gene in Children With Wilms Tumors

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that may occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at DNA variations in the RASSF1A gene in young patients with Wilms' tumor.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the presence of the A133S polymorphism in the RASSF1A tumor suppressor gene by screening germline DNAs of children with Wilms' tumor.
  • Determine the inheritance pattern of the A133S polymorphism by evaluating the parents of children who carry this polymorphism.

Secondary

  • Determine the differences in age at diagnosis, stage, histology, site of primary tumor, and outcome, between patients with vs without the A133S polymorphism.
  • Determine whether the S131F RASSF1A variant is a true polymorphism in these patients.
  • Determine the polymorphic differences in this gene between these patients based on ethnicity and sex.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study. Patients are stratified according to age at diagnosis, stage, histology, site of primary tumor, and outcome.

Genomic DNA samples are purified from peripheral blood of patients and controls and analyzed by polymerase chain reaction for the RASSF1A gene. DNA is also analyzed from parents of patients with the A133S polymorphism.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 471 participants (229 Wilms' tumor patients and 200 control participants plus 42 parents) will be accrued for this study.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. Presence of the A133S polymorphism of the RASSF1A tumor suppressor gene in germline DNAs of children with Wilms' tumor

  2. Inheritance pattern of the A133S polymorphism in the parents of children who carry this polymorphism

Secondary outcomes (3)

  1. Differences in age at diagnosis, stage, histology, site of primary tumor, and outcome between patients with vs without the A133S polymorphism

  2. Whether the S131F RASSF1A variant is a true polymorphism

  3. Polymorphic differences in this gene based on ethnicity and sex

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?

Presence of the A133S polymorphism of the RASSF1A tumor suppressor gene in germline DNAs of children with Wilms' tumor. The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00088803.

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 19 May 2016.
