About this study

Official title: Retrospective Study of Genetic Risk Factors for Osteosarcoma

This research trial studies blood samples from patients with osteosarcoma. Studying the genes found in samples of blood from patients with osteosarcoma may help doctors identify biomarkers related to the disease.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

  1. Conduct a large-scale candidate gene association study in osteosarcoma (OS) using cases from the national Children's Oncology Group (COG) OS biology study (P9851 and successor study AOST06B1).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. Conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of OS. II. Fine-map genomic regions associated with OS to identify putative functional loci.

III. Conduct whole-exome sequencing of germline OS deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples.

IV. Investigate the functional implications of promising genetic variants associated with OS.

OUTLINE:

Blood samples undergo polymorphism analysis of common single-nucleotide polymorphisms and haplotypes to examine genetic variation, gene-gene interactions, and the population structure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium on all SNPs

    Determined on all SNPs by chi-square tests.

    Measured: Baseline

  2. SNPs associated with OS

    Logistic regression will be used to estimate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the association between each SNP and OS under co-dominant, dominant and recessive genetic models. Stratified analyses will be conducted to examine sex, tumor subtype and outcome differences.

    Measured: Baseline

  3. Gene-gene interactions

    Assessed using a multiplicative model. Haplotypes will be constructed using both Bayesian and expectation-maximization algorithms. Differences between cases and controls will be evaluated with HaploStats which uses haplotype posterior probabilities as weights to update the regression coefficients in an iterative manner.

    Measured: Baseline

  4. Survival outcomes

    Kaplan-Meier survival curves will be used to determine outcome relative to genotype.

    Measured: Baseline

  5. Whole-exome variant loci

    Annotation and filtering of each whole-exome variant locus will be performed using a custom software pipeline. Variants in >= 2 OS cases will be validated, and then subsequently replicated in additional OS cases (samples previously received for the GWAS from international collaborators). Variants will also be evaluated for presence in known biologically plausible pathways and genes.

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Localized Osteosarcoma and Metastatic Osteosarcoma, run by Children's Oncology Group at 1 site 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 1 inclusion and 0 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 19 May 2016. 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 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?

Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium on all SNPs (time frame: Baseline). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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 19 May 2016.
