About this study

Official title: Evaluation of Thiol Disulfide Balance in Cervix Cancer

The aim of this research is to evaluate thiol-disulfide balance in cervix cancer patients

Read the detailed description

To date various oxidative stress parameters were studied in patients with cervix cancer, however dynamic thiol disulfide hemostasis has not been previously investigated.

The thiol-disulfide balance in the circulation will be measured by the automated system created by Erel \& Neselioglu (1).

What participants receive

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

  • Disulphide(μmol/L)Diagnostic test

    Also called Native thiol (μmol/L), Total thiol (μmol/L), Native thiol/totalthiol(%), Disulfide/native thiol(%)

    Aforementioned oxidative stress markers will be measured via Cobas c501(Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN, USA) used with spectrophotometry

  • Total Oxidant Capacity(μmolH2O2Equiv/L)Diagnostic test

    Also called Total Antioxidant Capacity(mmolTroloxEquiv/L), Oxidative stress Index (Arbitrary Unite)

    Aforementioned oxidative stress markers will be measured via Cobas c501(Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN, USA) used with spectrophotometry

  • Ischemia Modified Albumin(IU/mL)Diagnostic test

    The serum Ischemia Modified Albumin concentrations were measured as described by Bar-Or et al. (Bar-Or et al. 2000).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Cervix Cancer and Oxidative Stress, run by Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 12 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 2020. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

serum native thiol level (time frame: preoperative in the morning or preprandial for healthy volunteers). The study lists 6 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 30 Apr 2020.
