Trial Review

Did you know?

The ANZCTR now automatically displays published trial results and simplifies the addition of trial documents such as unpublished protocols and statistical analysis plans.

These enhancements will offer a more comprehensive view of trials, regardless of whether their results are positive, negative, or inconclusive.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Timepoint [2] 306087 0
Primary timepoint is at the end of the 4 year data collection period.
Secondary outcome [1] 347523 0
Overall survival of patients with Renal Cell Carcinoma in Australia after treatment. This outcome is being assessed from each patient's medical record.
Timepoint [1] 347523 0
Timepoint is at the end of the 4 year data collection period.

Summary
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether certain biomarkers have an impact on the effectiveness of treatment for kidney cancer.

Who is it for?
You may be eligible for this study if you are over the age of 18 and have been diagnosed with kidney cancer.

Study details
If there is left over tissue after planned medical procedures then a sample of this tissue will be kept. The tissue samples will then be tested to determine how the cells, genes and immune system interact with the cancer and whether these relate to treatment results.

It is hoped that this research will help us to better understand why some kidney cancers are more aggressive than other and also why some treatments work better in some patients than others.

Data sharing statement
Will individual participant data (IPD) for this trial be available (including data dictionaries)?
No
No/undecided IPD sharing reason/comment
IPD may be collected at a site level. However, IPD will not be made available to the Sponsor. The data that is collected by the Sponsor will not be re-identifiable at the Sponsor level. There are safeguards in place to minimise the risk of a privacy breach. They include analysing the data on an aggregated level and access to the data in a controlled environment with only authorised study personnel. Finally, enabling the availability of IPDs will not help meet the primary and secondary objectives of the study which are dependent on the results from the study population rather than on an individual basis.
