December 30, 2017 updated by: Ahmed Mohammed Abdo Mohammed Salem, Ain Shams University

The Effect of FAS and FAS Ligand Genetic Polymorphisms on the Clinical Outcome of Patients With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma Treated With Platinum-Based Regimens

To Study the Effect of Polymorphisms in Fas Ligand Gene Promoter Region (rs 763110) and Fas gene (rs1800682) on Platinum-Based regimens used in treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM)

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

This study tries to find a correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) found in promoter region of Fas Ligand gene (rs 763110) and Fas (rs1800682) and clinical outcome on patients with MPM treated with platinum-Based agents as first line. the patients will have one of three following genotypes : Thymine/Thymine, Thymine/Cytosine or Cytosine/Cytosine (for Fas ligand polymorphism) and Adenine/Adenine, Adenine/Guanine or Guanine/Guanine ( for Fas polymorphism).

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
people with MPM with Thymine/Thymine,Thymine/cytosine genotype
according to Single nucleotide polymorphism analysis of rs 763110, people have one of the following genotypes, Thymine/Thymine,Thymine/Cytosine,Cytosine/Cytosine. we will assign Thymine/Thymine, Thymine/Cytosine to group one and Cytosine/Cytosine to group two. for rs 1800682 people will have one of the following genotypes Adenine/Adenine, Adenine/Guanine or Guanine/Guanine.
people with MPM, Cytosine/Cytosine genotype
according to Single nucleotide polymorphism analysis of rs 763110, people have one of the following genotypes, Thymine/Thymine,Thymine/Cytosine,Cytosine/Cytosine. we will assign Thymine/Thymine, Thymine/Cytosine to group one and Cytosine/Cytosine to group two. for rs 1800682 people will have one of the following genotypes Adenine/Adenine, Adenine/Guanine or Guanine/Guanine.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
response rate
Time Frame: After 6 cycles of chemotherapy (each cycle is 21 days )
Tumor response will be evaluated after the third (initial evaluation response) and the sixth (confirmation of initial response) chemotherapy cycle according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors. Patients will be assigned to one of following groups: complete response (CR), Partial response (PR), Stable disease (SD) and progressive disease (PD).
After 6 cycles of chemotherapy (each cycle is 21 days )

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
progression free survival (PFS)
Time Frame: one year
Progression-free survival (PFS) time is defined as the time from day 1 of chemotherapy to the day of documented disease progression or to death from any cause
one year
overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: one year
time is defined as the time from day 1 of chemotherapy to death from any cause.
one year
estimation of treatment related toxicity
Time Frame: during the chemotherapy period, average duration 4 months
Hematologic (anemia, neutropenia, and thrombocytopenia) and non hematologic (nausea/vomiting, alopecia and nephrotoxicity) toxicities will be evaluated according to the National Cancer Institute-Common Toxicity Criteria. The worst degree of toxicity experienced throughout the treatment is used for the analysis. Toxicities of grade 2 or higher will be considered as clinically relevant.
during the chemotherapy period, average duration 4 months

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
April 1, 2014

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
