About this study

Official title: Gastroenteropancreatic and Unknown Primary Neuroendocrine Registry A Collection of Clinical and Epidemiologic Data Combined With Tissue and Blood From Patients With a Diagnosis of Neuroendocrine Tumors

The purpose of this study is to establish a neuroendocrine tumor registry. A registry is a collection of information. To create this registry, the investigators would like to get information, blood and tumor samples from people with neuroendocrine tumors. By collecting this information and material, the investigators are hoping to learn more about the genetic causes of neuroendocrine tumors. All of this will help us to better understand neuroendocrine cancer, so the investigators can find better ways to treat and diagnose this disease. DNA will be taken from the blood samples and will be used in future studies. This will be an important resource from which the investigators can study genes that may be related to a higher risk of neuroendocrine tumors.

The information collected will include medical information, family history of cancer and your answers to questions about how the cancer affects quality of life.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • questionnaire, Blood specimensOther

    All participants will complete an epidemiology study questionnaire as well as a quality of life questionnaire. They will also be asked to donate blood samples. We will request participation in a tissue repository consisting of fresh frozen or paraffin embedded tissue. The repository will be of serum, plasma and tumor tissue. Follow-up will occur on patients every 6 months for the first year after consent and then annually.

What is being measured

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

  1. To develop a tissue, serum, plasma and DNA bank from individuals with NET. This bank will be combined with epidemiologic and clinical information to create a NET database.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Gastric Cancer and Pancreatic Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 3 sites in United States.

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 4 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 4 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in United States. 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?

To develop a tissue, serum, plasma and DNA bank from individuals with NET. This bank will be combined with epidemiologic and clinical information to create a NET database. (time frame: conclusion of the study). 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 4 Aug 2020.
