Effect of Anesthesia on Expression of Programmed Death-1 and Programmed Death-1 Ligand in Breast Cancer

December 5, 2020 updated by: Shereen Mamdouh, Assiut University

Effect of Anesthesia and Surgical Stress on the Expression of Programmed Death-1 and Programmed Death-1 Ligand on T Lymphocyte After Breast Cancer Surgeries

Surgery is first-line treatment for solid tumors. However, surgical trauma-induced physiologic stress has been demonstrated to facilitate metastasis and recurrence in different types of cancer. It has been reported that the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway could be activated by surgical stress. Hence, we instigate the effect of anesthetic technique on expression of PD1 and PD1 ligand.

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

The cellular immune response plays a central part in postoperative clearance of tumor cells. T lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells are two predominant cytotoxic effector cells that are the major components of antitumor immunity. In mouse models, proliferation of T lymphocytes in response to surgical trauma is defective . Programmed death-1 (PD-1) belongs to the CD28 receptor superfamily. It is an inhibitory receptor, and its expression is upregulated on activated leukocytes, resulting in an inhibited immune response. PD-1 interacts with two ligands: programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1, also referred to as B7-H1) and programmed death ligand-2 (PD-L2, also known as B7-DC). PD-L2 is expressed mainly on activated dendritic cells (DCs) and macrophages, whereas PD-L1 is distributed widely. In addition to immune cells, some subsets of tumor cells also express PD-L1 to escape from immunosurveillance. It has been reported that the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway could be activated by surgical stress. Hence, we instigate the effect of anesthetic technique on expression of PD1 and PD1 ligand.

Enrollment (Anticipated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

14 years to 61 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Inclusion Criteria:

  • patients scheduled for breast cancer surgery

Exclusion Criteria:

  • compromised immune function (such as infection with the human immunodeficiency virus, immunodeficiency, or treatment with corticosteroids, immunosuppressive drugs, or chemotherapy)
  • ASA > III
  • age> 70 years old.
  • patients refusal to the procedure.
  • Infection of the skin at or near site of needle puncture.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
No Intervention: control group
all patients will receive general anesthesia and will receive intravenous paracetamol (1 g) before skin closure and then given every 6 hrs in the 1st postoperative day
Active Comparator: TPVB group
Patients will receive total volume (20 ml) 0.25% bubivicaine divided equally at each level of T4 and T6 at thoracic paravertebral space then they will recive general anesthesia.
Procedure: Thoracic Paravertebral block
TPVB will be given using high frequency linear U/S transducer, place the U/S ultrasound probe was placed parallel to the vertebral spine at T4, and, T6 level and shifted 2-3 cm laterally to obtain the appropriate visualization. Following the identification of pleura, transverse process and paravertebral space, the needle was inserted in caudocranial direction using in-plane approach. Confirm negative vessel or pleural breach via aspiration then proceed with local anaesthetic 0.25% bupivacaine (20 ml) delivery slowly divided equally at T4and T6; the pleura will be seen to be pushed downward

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
change in level of PD1 and PD1 ligand postoperatively
Time Frame: preoerative (day-0),1st day, and 3 rd day after surgery
blood sample will be withdrawn and human peripheral blood monocyte cells (PBMCs) will be separated with a Ficoll-Isopaque density gradient. Flow cytometric analyses will be carried out immediately. For ex vivo experiments, PBMCs will be cultured with Iscove's modified Dulbecco's medium (IMDM) containing 10 % human serum albumin.
preoerative (day-0),1st day, and 3 rd day after surgery

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
total request of analgesia
Time Frame: 24 hours postoperative
the total amount of analgesia (paracetamol) will be recorded and calculated
24 hours postoperative
