Study of Blood Samples From Patients With Osteosarcoma

May 17, 2016 updated by: Children's Oncology Group

Retrospective Study of Genetic Risk Factors for Osteosarcoma

This research trial studies blood samples from patients with osteosarcoma. Studying the genes found in samples of blood from patients with osteosarcoma may help doctors identify biomarkers related to the disease.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:

I. Conduct a large-scale candidate gene association study in osteosarcoma (OS) using cases from the national Children's Oncology Group (COG) OS biology study (P9851 and successor study AOST06B1).

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

I. Conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of OS. II. Fine-map genomic regions associated with OS to identify putative functional loci.

III. Conduct whole-exome sequencing of germline OS deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) samples.

IV. Investigate the functional implications of promising genetic variants associated with OS.

OUTLINE:

Blood samples undergo polymorphism analysis of common single-nucleotide polymorphisms and haplotypes to examine genetic variation, gene-gene interactions, and the population structure.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium on all SNPs
Time Frame: Baseline
Determined on all SNPs by chi-square tests.
Baseline
SNPs associated with OS
Time Frame: Baseline
Logistic regression will be used to estimate odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals for the association between each SNP and OS under co-dominant, dominant and recessive genetic models. Stratified analyses will be conducted to examine sex, tumor subtype and outcome differences.
Baseline
Gene-gene interactions
Time Frame: Baseline
Assessed using a multiplicative model. Haplotypes will be constructed using both Bayesian and expectation-maximization algorithms. Differences between cases and controls will be evaluated with HaploStats which uses haplotype posterior probabilities as weights to update the regression coefficients in an iterative manner.
Baseline
Survival outcomes
Time Frame: Baseline
Kaplan-Meier survival curves will be used to determine outcome relative to genotype.
Baseline
Whole-exome variant loci
Time Frame: Baseline
Annotation and filtering of each whole-exome variant locus will be performed using a custom software pipeline. Variants in >= 2 OS cases will be validated, and then subsequently replicated in additional OS cases (samples previously received for the GWAS from international collaborators). Variants will also be evaluated for presence in known biologically plausible pathways and genes.
