About this study

Official title: Clinicopathological Value of p16 Expression in Colorectal Carcinoma: An Immunohistochemical Study.

Evaluation of the immunohistochemical expression of p16 in colorectal carcinoma and correlate its expression to different clinical and pathological parameters as patients' ages, sexes, tumor location, histopathological phenotype, status of nodal involvement, perineural and lymphovascular invasion.

Read the detailed description

Colorectal Carcinoma is very common nowadays, with increasing need for further research.

p16 is tumor suppressor gene with a vital rule ; inactivation of p16 leads to tumor formation and progression.

50 Specimens will be collected from Pathology Department of Sohag University Hospital. Sufficient clinical and histopathological data will be attached for each case.

The previously processed formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue blocks will be used to get Hematoxylin \& Eosin stained sections to confirm the diagnosis and to detect the histopathological type, grade and stage of each tumor.

Another sliced tissue sections will be immunohistochemically stained with p16 monoclonal antibodies to be evaluated with the positivity, intensity and distribution of the detected stain.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Carcinoma, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 2 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 10 Jul 2025. 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 Egypt. 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 Sherry R Azmy, Demonstrator of pathology (01507557371 ext. 01207589093, shery.raoof@med.sohag.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of p16 Expression in Colorectal Carcinoma. (time frame: 6 months). 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 10 Jul 2025.
