Changes in the Microenvironment of HPV-induced Head and Neck Cancers in West Indies and Metropolitan Population (MituHPV)

February 13, 2020 updated by: University Hospital Center of Martinique

Automated Multiparameter in Situ Study Comparing the Microenvironment of Head and Neck Cancers Among West Indies and Metropolitan Populations: Screening for Predictive Markers of Overall Survival and Immunotherapy Responses.

Retrospective observational comparative and multicentric study of the microenvironment of HPV-induced head and neck cancers, with comparison between West Indies and Metropolitan populations, and therapeutic implications. This assessment is carried out by in situ multiparametric study with multiple immunofluorescence staining for cluster of differentiation 3, cluster of differentiation 4, cluster of differentiation 8, PROGRAMMED DEATH-1, PROGRAMMED DEATH-L1, PROGRAMMED DEATH-L2, cytokeratin and cluster of differentiation 68 and automated reading. HPV genotypes will be characterized. Learning these techniques will allow me to promote them in West Indies on my way back, and they may be applicable to other HPV-induced cancers.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Global annual incidence of head and neck (HN) cancers is high. It is even a greater concern in West Indies compared to other American countries. Most represented histological type is squamous carcinoma and several risk factors are involved , including tobacco exposure. Moreover, it is now clear that Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a causal factor in the development of HNSCCs : as many as 5 to 10% of tumors are induced by HPV in the world, and it is responsible of 25,9% of HN tumors. HPV 16 is the most involved (87%). However, HPV epidemiology is different in West Indies with the implication of various genotypes. Detection of HPV infection can be achieved through several methods such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or RNAscope, which is a new reliable precise technique which reflects the transcriptional activity of the virus. The differences between the genotype of HPV involved within both populations need to be consider to better identify therapeutic targets.Studying the microenvironment may allow a better understanding of anti-tumoral immunity and may help patient selection in order to achieved better responses to immunotherapy.

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

Patient with primitive head and neck squamous cells carcinoma diagnosed on surgical resection or biopsic sample, between 2008 and 2015 in metropolitan and Antillean populations

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Primitive head and neck squamous cells carcinoma diagnosed on surgical resection or biopsic sample, between 2008 and 2015 in metropolitan and Antillean populations. For metropolitan they were included when expressing p16 as assessed by immunochemistry and positive HPV DNA by in situ hybridation or positive HPV PCR. For Antillean population they were included when expressing p16 as assessed by immunochemistry with regards of genotype as assessed by in situ hybridation or by PCR (to be completed).

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Secondary tumors,
  • Tumor recurrence in a patient for whom we have already tumor tissue, nasopharyngeal tumors, p16 expression by immunochemistry with negative PCR testing for HPV.

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
Description of tumoral microenvironment with multiparametric study by immunofluorescence comparing West Indies population and metropolitan population and the stratification of patients regarding RNAscope staining intensity and HPV genotype.
Time Frame: 12 months
Automated reading of results by software Inform (Perkin©).
12 months

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
The secondary outcome measures are: - interpretation of RNAscope results and comparison between West Indies and Metropolitan population, - evaluation of RNAscope staining intensity to define subgroups
Time Frame: 12 months
