NCT06147960 · Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 180

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Overexpression of inhibitors of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) in patients treated for locally advanced cervical cancer with exclusive radio-chemotherapy may have a prognostic role on the local recurrence rate at 24 months.

Conditions

  • Cancer of Cervix
  • Apoptosis

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Immunohistochemistry

Blocks containing formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) biopsies will be used to analyse the expression of XIAP, cIAP1 and cIAP2 proteins by immunohistochemistry. The antibodies will be selected on the basis of the literature and their validation for this technology (Schnoell et al. 2020). The immunohistochemical techniques will be performed on an automated immunolabelling machine (DakoLink®) after antigen demasking. The specific binding of primary antibodies will be revealed by the application of Flex reagent (Dako Agilent), a dextran polymer coupled on the one hand to anti-mouse and anti-rabbit immunoglobulins, and on the other hand to a large number of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) molecules. 3,3'-Diaminobenzidine (DAB) will be used as a substrate for this enzyme to highlight the specific expression of the biomarker. The use of an automated system will ensure the reproducibility of inter-sample labelling.
