Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 70 years
  • All sexes

  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Three type of patients will be enrolled in this study: * Women with a confirmed diagnosis of serous or undifferentiated ovarian cancer * Women with a confirmed diagnosis of CIN3 or cervical cancer * HLA-A2 positive men or women with a confirmed diagnosis of AML of CML All these patients will be less than 70 years of age and will show no evidence of active progressive disease on follow up. For ovarian cancer patients, a woman with a rising CA125 and negative imaging is acceptable.

About this study

Official title: Phase 0 Study for the Development of Immunological Assays for the Evaluation of WT-1, Survivin and HPV16 E7 Tumor Antigens Specific Immune Responses in Cancer Patients

This study is a clinical study aiming at establishing immunological assays for the qualitative and quantitative evaluation of WT-1, Survivin and HPV16 E7-specific immune responses in cancer patients. Such a study will allow the development of suitable immunological tools to be used in assessing response in a subsequent phase I study aiming at evaluating therapeutic vaccine candidates targeting WT-1, Survivin and/or HPV16 E7-expressing tumors. In addition, this study will help defining the baseline cancer-associated immune responses in the selected patient population.

Cervical and ovarian cancer patients, as well as leukemia patients, will be included in this study.

WT-1, Survivin and HPV-specific immune responses will be monitored in these patients by ex vivo and cultured IFNg ELISpot as well as tetramer staining.

What is being measured

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

  1. Development and validation of ELISpot and tetramer assays for the detection of tumor-antigen specific T cell immune responses in cancer patients

    Direct and cultured IFNg ELISpot as well as direct tetramer staining assays will be set up and qualified for the detection WT-1, survivin and HPV16 E7 specific immune responses in cancer patients

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Characterisation of WT1, Survivin and HPV16 E7 specific immune responses in cancer patients

    Direct and Cultured IFNg ELISpot assays as well as tetramer staining assays will be used for the characterization of tumor specific immune responses in cancer patients

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Serous Adenocarcinoma and Undifferentiated Carcinoma of Ovary, run by PX Biosolutions at 1 site in Australia.

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 12 inclusion and 5 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 30 Apr 2015. 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 Australia. 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?

Development and validation of ELISpot and tetramer assays for the detection of tumor-antigen specific T cell immune responses in cancer patients (time frame: Baseline). 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 30 Apr 2015.
