Characterisation of Gene Variants in the Angiogenic Pathway

NCT00716287 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Anti-angiogenic targeted therapies are used in a wide range of solid tumors including NSCLC, breast cancer, GISTs, CRC, renal cell carcinoma and hepatocellular carcinoma. Somatic mutations in genes related to tumorigenesis have been associated with treatment response whereas germline gene variants have been associated with tumor risk, prognosis and treatment related toxicity.Study objectives are:

1. To characterise the prevalence and clinicopathological associations of germline and somatic variation in genes involved in the angiogenic pathway in healthy donors and unselected cancer patients
2. To examine the association between angiogenic gene variants and outcome in patients receiving anti-angiogenic therapy
