Trial summary

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a haematological malignancy characterized by the accumulation of proliferating antibody producing plasma cells in the bone marrow. In the last few years many studies have emphasized the biological complexity and heterogeneity of MM as a result of both genetic and epigenetic aberrations. Read more about this study

About this study

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a haematological malignancy characterized by the accumulation of proliferating antibody producing plasma cells in the bone marrow. In the last few years many studies have emphasized the biological complexity and heterogeneity of MM as a result of both genetic and epigenetic aberrations. Che-1/AATF (Che-1) is a transcriptional cofactor involved in cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, DNA damage and stress response. it can be hypothesized that Che-1 might contribute to the establishment of the MM malignant phenotype by sustaining global transcription through its ability to modulate chromatin accessibility.

The prospective study on MM human samples aims to understand the involvement of Che-1 in the transcriptional regulation and chromatin remodeling during the pathology. To this goal the main objectives are:

  • Characterization of Che-1's role in chromatin remodeling and global gene expression
  • Study in vivo and in vitro of Che-1 involvement in MM tumorigenesis
  • Evaluation of Che-1 as a possible therapeutic target
Being tested
ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq

What participants receive

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

  • ATAC-seq and ChIP-seqOther

    CD138+ cells will be isolated from the bone marrow of MM patients and will be subjected to ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq analyses, by useing specific antibodies, to better understand the involvment of Che-1 in MM tumorogenesis.

What is being measured

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

  1. Che-1 involvement in MM tumorigenesis

    Characterization of Che-1's role in chromatin remodeling and global gene expression

    Measured: About 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Myeloma, run by Regina Elena Cancer Institute at 2 sites 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 1 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Maurizio fanciulli, PhD (+39 06 52662800, maurizio.fanciulli@ifo.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Che-1 involvement in MM tumorigenesis (time frame: About 2 years). 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 15 May 2023.
