Diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer by Purine Metabolite (Hypoxanthine, Xanthine) in Urine

February 26, 2024 updated by: Ho-Seong Han

Development of Pancreatic Cancer Diagnostic Method by Using a Reagent for Analyzing Purine Metabolite (Hypoxanthine, Xanthine) in Urine

  • This study aim to develope a diagnostic method of pancreatic cancer by using a reagent for analyzing purine metabolite (Hypoxanthine, Xanthine) in urine.
  • It is safe and cost effective compare to radiologic or blood test. It can be used for initial screening test for healty population.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

  • CubeBio and Seoul National University Bundang Hospital signed a joint technology development agreement to compare the analytical performance of existing analytical methods and purine metabolite analysis reagents developed by CubeBio.
  • Through quantitative analysis of hypoxanthine and xanthine in the urine of normal people and pancreatic cancer patients, we plan to confirm the possibility of diagnosing pancreatic cancer using reagents for analyzing purine metabolites.
  • Early diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is a key determinant of cure and survival rates, and impact on all aspects of cancer, including rate of progression, treatment, and prognosis.
  • This study could change the paradigm of pancreatic cancer screening by evaluating the stability and accuracy of urinary purine metabolite analysis reagents.

Study Population

Pancreatic cancer group: comprised patients who were scheduled for curative surgery for pancreatic cancer

Control group: The control group included healthy individuals as well as patients with benign diseases

Description

  1. pancreatic cancer group

    Inclusion Criteria:

    • Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma that is pathologically confirmed or shows characteristic radiologic features
    • Patients with resectable pancreatic cancer at the time of surgery (Including borderline resectable pancreatic cancer at the time of diagnosis or Locally advanced pancreatic cancer after chemotherapy or radiation therapy)
    • Patients without invasion of adjacent organs other than the left adrenal gland and mesocolon
    • Patients with informed consent

    Exclusion Criteria:

    • History of other malignancy (Inclusive if there is no evidence of recurrence after 5 years of treatment)
    • Patient with Inflammatory disease(e.g. severe pancreatitis, cholangitis)
    • Patients with underlying diseases at high risk of general anesthesia
    • Other subject whom the investigator deems inappropriate
  2. control group Inclusion Criteria included healthy individuals as well as patients with benign diseases.

Exclusion criteria for the control group included a previous cancer diagnosis within the past five years, active inflammatory diseases, borderline malignant pancreatic tumors, or a postoperative pathological finding of malignancy.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Pancreatic cancer group
scheduled for curative surgery for pancreatic cancer
  • Collect urine from the patient to measure urinary hypoxia, xanthine concentration.
  • Hypoxic acid, xanthine analysis in urine using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).
  • After that, hypoxanthine and xanthine will be analyzed using purine metabolite analysis reagents.
  • Compare the cutoff of the metabolic value of Pancreas cancer clarified in the existing research and the value of the sample.
Control group
