Trial summary

Hyaluronan is an extracellular matrix protein that is involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Hyaluronan performs this activity through hyaladherins, which are intracellular and extracellular receptors. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Role Of Hyaluronan Receptor Cd44s And Has2 In Endometrial Malignities

Hyaluronan is an extracellular matrix protein that is involved in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Hyaluronan performs this activity through hyaladherins, which are intracellular and extracellular receptors.

The purpose of this study was to compare the distributions of Hyaluronan Synthetase 2 (HAS2) and CD44s in healthy endometrial tissue samples obtained during the proliferative phase endometrium (PPE) and secretory phase endometrium (SPE), as well as pathologic samples diagnosed with benign endometrial hyperplasia (EH), endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN), early stage of endometrial carcinoma (EC) (stage I/II) and advanced stage of endometrial carcinoma (stage III/IV) (n:5, each).

By using the avidin-biotin-peroxidase method, tissue samples that had been fixed with formalin passed through a regular paraffin follow-up protocol, and subsequently embedded in paraffin were stained indirectly with anti-CD44s and anti-HAS2 primary antibodies. Immunostaining intensity was graded as 0: negative, 1: weak, 2: moderate, 3: strong, and 4: very strong using a semiquantitative technique. The ANOVA test was used to assess the statistical significance of the findings. Statistical significance was defined as (p) values less than 0.05.

While weak HAS2 and weak/moderate CD44s immunoreactivity was observed on the surface epithelium (SE)/glandular epithelium (GE) and stroma of the tissue samples acquired during PPE; weak/moderate HAS2 and moderate CD44s immunoreactivity were observed in SPE and EH groups; moderate/strong HAS2, strong CD44s immunoreactivity was observed in EIN; strong/very strong HAS2 and very strong CD44s immunoreactivity were observed in early-stage EC and advanced stage EC. It was determined that the immunoreactivity intensity increased at a statistically significant level in both early and advanced stage EC.

The fact that HAS2 and CD44s, two intracellular receptors, have increased in endometrial carcinoma leads us to believe that they are likely to play a role in tumor development, invasion, migration, metastasis and that they may be useful in developing future treatment protocols targeting hyaluronan receptors.

What is being measured

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

  1. Investigation Of Receptivity Markers For Endometrial Cancer Treatment Development

    The increase or decrease of hyaluronan receptors, which play a role in endometrial cancer, has a critical role to be explained in cancer treatments.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Endometrial Cancer Stage, run by Manisa Celal Bayar 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2023. 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?

Investigation Of Receptivity Markers For Endometrial Cancer Treatment Development (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 22 Jun 2023.
