Biomarker-based Algorithm for Diagnosis of Glioma

Study Purpose

ATRX (X-linked mental retardation and alpha-thalassaemia syndrome protein) loss and pTERT (Telomerase reverse transcriptase) mutation are diagnostic markers of gliomas. However, 4 to 28% of gliomas shows none of these alterations. The aim of this project is to propose a new test able to detect the telomeric status for every glioma. Based on this test and other markers (such as mutation of IDH1 (isocitrate dehydrogenase 1) and IDH2 (isocitrate dehydrogenase 2)), investigators propose an algorithm, able to classify the main subtypes of gliomas (astrocytoma, oligodendroglioma and glioblastoma).

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT04194593
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Lead Sponsor

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: Glioma

FFPE (Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded) or frozen samples will be used for DNA extraction. Different gliomas tumors will be used (oligodendroglioma, astrocytomas, glioblastoma)

Interventions

Other: - PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction)

Biological testing of FFPE (Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded) or frozen samples of tumors will be led. These tissues have been collected during the treatment of patients (for diagnostic purposes). A molecular analysis (polymerase chain reaction) is led on DNA extracted from FFPE/frozen conserved tissues, and a result is produced by the algorithm.
