Ethnic/Racial Differences in Metabolism and DNA Adduct Formation

Withdrawn
Conditions
Lung Cancer
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Urine Sample
Registration Number
NCT03421678
Lead Sponsor
Masonic Cancer Center, University of Minnesota
Brief Summary

The study will investigate the role of 1,3-butadiene metabolic activation and deactivation in lung cancer risk among various ethnic/racial groups. This project will require urine samples from smokers and nonsmokers from the three ethnic/racial groups recruited by the Clinical and Biomarker Core for the analysis of 1,3-butadiene DNA adducts. Data on nicotine intake (urinary TNE) in these subjects as well as in 400 lung cancer cases and 400 controls from Project 1 will be also required for this project.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Butadiene-DNA adducts in different ethnic groupsDay 1 & 2

Investigate ethnic differences in butadiene-DNA adducts in smokers belonging to different ethnic groups.

Polymorphisms of carnicogen metabolizing genesDay 1 & 2

Examine how polymorphisms of carcinogen metabolizing genes influence metabolic inactivation, DNA adduct formation/repair, and toxicity of butadiene-derived epoxides.

Butadiene-DNA adduct load in smokers with lung cancerDay 1 & 2

Investigate the association between butadiene-DNA adduct load and lung cancer development in smokers.
