Scientists dig into DNA of rare gut cancer to improve prognosis

NCT ID NCT07587268

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at stored tumor samples from 400 people with appendiceal cancer. Researchers will analyze DNA and RNA modifications to find patterns linked to how the cancer behaves. The goal is to create a molecular score that could one day help doctors predict outcomes more accurately than current methods.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this research could lead to better ways to predict how appendiceal cancer will behave, helping doctors tailor follow-up and treatment decisions.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study using stored tissue samples, not a treatment trial. The findings may not directly change patient care and need further validation.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

Participants

About 400 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Started

May 2026

Expected to finish

Jan 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population includes adult patients with appendiceal cancer whose archived tumor specimens and associated clinicopathologic data are available for retrospective molecular profiling. The same patient cohort is used for DNA methylation and m6A epitranscriptomic analyses where sufficient biospecimen material is available. Benign or normal appendix tissue specimens may be included as non-malignant reference controls.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with histologically confirmed appendiceal adenocarcinoma or appendiceal cancer. * Availability of archived tumor tissue suitable for molecular profiling. * Availability of tissue for DNA methylation profiling, m6A epitranscriptomic profiling, or both. * Availability of relevant clinicopathologic data. * Availability of survival or follow-up information when applicable. * Age 18 years or older at diagnosis or tissue collection. Exclusion Criteria: * Insufficient tissue quantity or quality for molecular profiling. * Inadequate DNA or RNA quality for sequencing or molecular assay preparation. * Missing essential clinicopathologic information required for analysis. * Non-appendiceal primary tumor or metastatic tumor to the appendix from another primary site. * Patients who do not meet institutional review board or consent requirements, if applicable.
