Myeloid Derived Suppressor Cells Control by Signal Regulatory Protein-alpha: Investigation in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Completed
Conditions
Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Interventions
Procedure: Collection of human samples
Registration Number
NCT02868255
Lead Sponsor
Nantes University Hospital
Brief Summary

project is to study and develop anti-Signal Regulatory Protein α (SIRPα) antibodies (Ab) as a new immunotherapy strategy in cancer.

Samples harvested from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and ovarian cancer patients will be used in evaluation of the SIRP-CD47 expression and of the effect of the anti-human Signal Regulatory Protein (hSIRP) Ab on various cellular types from patients and healthy volunteers.

AscitesCollection of human samples30 inflammatory ascites of HCC patients (Collection of human samples ) Ascites will be selected only from HCC patients with an elevated protein level (ie inflammatory ascites) Puncture of ascites will be collected by paracentesis on HCC or ovarian cancer patients during their routine care These biological samples are affiliated with the biobank "hépato-gastroentérologie du CHU de Nantes" (declared under the reference DC-2011-1399).
blood samplesCollection of human samplesblood samples (Collection of human samples )will be collected prospectively for complementary functional analysis of peripheral These biological samples are affiliated with the biocollection "hépato-gastroentérologie du CHU de Nantes" (declared under the reference DC-2011-1399).
ResectionsCollection of human samples30 HCC resections (Collection of human samples ) Fragment of resected HCC will be obtained after surgery and histological analysis will be performed by the anatomo-pathology service These biological samples are affiliated with the biobank "hépato-gastroentérologie du CHU de Nantes" (declared under the reference DC-2011-1399).
