Trial summary

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) were significantly altered in localized as well advanced RCC compared to healthy samples. In addition, GAG scores correlated with progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) in a prospective cohort of patients with metastatic ccRCC and localized RCC. Read more about this study

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 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: All patients referred to our department by family doctors or the primary sector with a suspicion of renal tumor by CT-scanning will be asked to participate in the study. Patients with suspected small renal tumor will be offered renal tumor biopsies as standard procedure.

Who may be able to join

  • Patients who underwent CT-scan with suspicion of renal tumor and the scans show no sign of renal cancer.
  • For patient with ccRCC or oncocytoma, they should have a histological verified tumor (Biopsy or surgical specimen)
  • Sign up information consent
  • Can perform protocol procedure

Who cannot join

  • Non-clear cell Renal cell carcinoma
  • RCC with pure sarcomatoid differentiation, also called sarcoma of the kidney
  • Use of heparin for concurrent disease in need of blood dilution (e.g. ongoing deep vein thrombosis or lung emboli). Note: use of of heparin for thrombus prophylaxis in conjunction with primary surgery or postoperatively ≤4 weeks will be allowed.

About this study

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) were significantly altered in localized as well advanced RCC compared to healthy samples. In addition, GAG scores correlated with progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) in a prospective cohort of patients with metastatic ccRCC and localized RCC. However, it is still unknown whether alterations in plasma and urine GAGs are exquisitely specific to RCC or are shared by other benign lesions in the kidney, such as angiomyolipomas, oncocytomas, or PEComa.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Renal Cancer and Oncocytoma, run by Zealand University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 3 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jan 2024. 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 Denmark. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To identify the optimal GAG score (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 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 Jan 2024.
