Genomic Risk in Retroperitoneal Sarcoma

Characterization of the Genomic Risk Underlying Retroperitoneal Liposarcoma

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 31 May 2024 · Not updated for over 12 months - ask the site whether it is still open

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The protocol intends to explore the biology which may underlie recurrences of retroperitoneal liposarcoma. Surgery remains the only curative intent intervention for this disease. Often, tumors recur in locations within the retroperitoneum remote from the original primary tumor. This study hypothesizes that normal appearing retroperitoneal fat actually harbors underlying genetic changes which predispose to development of future liposarcoma. To accomplish this goal, retroperitoneal fat is sampled from quadrants within and remote from the primary tumor and is subsequently subjected to genetic analyses looking for such predisposing factors.

What you commit to

  • Study type: Observational
  • Planned participants: 50
  • From 7 Mar 2022 to the primary completion date, 30 Jun 2027
  • 1 site in 1 country
  • Visits and tests: ask the trial team, the registry does not list them

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • Prior surgical anatomy which makes sampling of remote areas of the retroperitoneum technically impossible or clinically undesirable for safety reasons

Who the study is looking for

  • Adult patients (age ≥18 years).
  • Histologically confirmed retroperitoneal liposarcoma via preoperative biopsy, or cross-sectional imaging suspicious for liposarcoma with planned surgical resection
  • Will be undergoing surgical resection for treatment of primary or recurrent disease
  • Have provided informed consent to participate in this study

Age in the registry: 18 years to - · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
