About this study

Official title: STUDY MULTICENRIC OBSERVATIONAL, NO-PROFIT FOR THE INCIDENCE AND CHARACTERISTICS OF MALIGNANT NEOPLASIES IN PATIENTS WITH HEMOGLOBINOPATHY FOLLOWED IN ITALY

The Trial aims to increase the information available on the relevance of tumor pathology in hemoglobinopathies, updating the data relating to hepatocarcinoma and investigating which other tumors are more frequent in patients with hemoglobinopathies. Still, in relation to tumor pathology, the study will evaluate any differences between the different types of hemoglobinopathy and will investigate the association between the appearance of neoplasms and risk factors such as age, sex, iron accumulation markers, history of bone marrow transplant, and others.

Read the detailed description

By providing targeted screening strategies, these data may contribute to the early identification of tumor pathology in hemoglobinopathies, and, by contributing to the identification of risk factors, to its prevention. They will also be able to contribute to understanding which therapeutic approaches in the case of cancer are most appropriate in this category of subjects.

To be able to go even deeper into understanding the possible link that exists between tumors and hemoglobinopathy, a further data collection (substudy) has been prepared in which additional and more detailed information will be collected in order to evaluate which is the percentage of patients who develop tumors compared to all those with hemoglobinopathy.

The risk of developing tumors will also be assessed for each hemoglobinopathy (transfusion-dependent beta-thalassemia, transfusion independent beta-thalassemia, hemoglobin H disease, sickle cell disease, microdrepanocytosis)

What is being measured

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

  1. outcome 1

    Evaluate the number of patients with hemoglobinopathy followed at Italian centers that have developed neoplastic events in the last decades

    Measured: ENROLLMENT STUDY

  2. outcome 2

    Evaluate which neoplasms are most associated with hemoglobinopathies

    Measured: enrollment study

  3. outcome 3

    Identify any risk factors for the onset of neoplasms in patients with hemoglobinopathies.

    Measured: enrollment study

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. outcome 4

    To highlight the differences between the various hemoglobinopathies as regards the development and characteristics of neoplastic events

    Measured: enrollment study

  2. outcome 5

    Evaluate the possible association between neoplastic events and martial accumulation parameters in the different hemoglobinopathies

    Measured: enrollment study

  3. outcome 6

    Evaluate the incidence and prevalence of neoplasms with respect to the total population of patients with hemoglobinopathies

    Measured: enrollment study

  4. outcome 7

    Evaluate the impact of neoplasms as a cause of death in patients with hemoglobinopathies compared to other causes

    Measured: enrollment study

  5. outcome 8

    To evaluate the incidence rate of neoplasms in the total population of patients affected by hemoglobinopathies and in the various forms of hemoglobinopathy.

    Measured: enrollment study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Malignacy, Hemoglobinopathie, run by Società Italiana Talassemie ed Emoglobinopatie at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 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 1 Apr 2022. 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 Italy. 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?

Contact RAFFAELLA ORIGA, MD (39 070 6095655 ext. 528, SECONDACASELLA@HOTMAIL.IT), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

outcome 1 (time frame: ENROLLMENT STUDY). 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 1 Apr 2022.
