Trial number:
NCT01164735
Trial phase:
N/A
Study type:
Any
Overall status:
Recruiting

Study start date

January, 2100

Scientific title

Topoisomerase 2-Alpha (TOPO2A) Genomic Alterations and Immunohistochemical Expression as Well as Chromosome 17 Polysomy in Advanced or Recurrent Endometrial Carcinoma Treated With Anthracycline-Based Therapy

Summary

This research study is studying biomarkers in tissue samples from patients with stage III, stage IV, or recurrent endometrial cancer. Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and identify biomarkers related to cancer.

Chemotherapy-naïve women with histologically documented measurable Stage III, Stage IV or recurrent endometrial carcinoma with known HER2 status who participated in Gynecologic Oncology Group (GOG)-0177 are eligiblePatients must have given permission for their archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded primary, metastatic or recurrent tumor to be submitted and used for GOG-0177, and at least one to three unstained slides must be available for FISH analysis of TOPO2A and CEP17 and immunohistochemical staining for TOPO2A
