Expression Levels of Nicotinamide Metabolism-related Protein (NMAP) in Newly Diagnosed Renal Cancer and Non-renal Cancer Populations

Conditions
Carcinoma, Renal Cell
Interventions
Other: Blood test
Registration Number
NCT04113486
Lead Sponsor
Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine
Brief Summary

This study aims to observe the difference between NMAP (nicotinamide metabolism associated protein) serum levels in primary diagnosed renal cancer patients and non-renal cancer patient controls, plot the ROC curve and establish appropriate cut-off values.

Target Recruitment
400
Inclusion Criteria
  1. The tumor group patients were found to have renal or hepatic mass, plan to receive surgical treatment (except for radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, etc., which were not available for pathological examination). The control group patients were ruled out of tumor based on radiological tests and commonly used tumor biomarkers
  2. Age ≥ 18 years old and able to provide written informed consent;
  3. Have not received any systemic or topical treatment for kidney/liver tumors.
  4. Cardiopulmonary, liver and kidney functions are able to tolerate surgery and can comply with research requirements.
Exclusion Criteria
  1. The investigators believe that the subject may be unsuitable for inclusion due to severe concurrent diseases, infections, and etc.
  2. The subjects is known or suspected of other malignancies.
  3. There has been another history of malignancy in the past 5 years.
  4. Major surgery (surgery requiring general anesthesia) was performed within 4 weeks prior to screening visits.

Renal cysts groupBlood testPatients which imaging studies have found renal cysts (simple or complex) about 100.
Renal cancer groupBlood testPatients which imaging studies have found renal mass, plan to receive surgery (except for radiofrequency ablation, cryoablation, etc.), about 100.
Urothiasis groupBlood testPatients which imaging studies have found renal or ureteral stones, and rule out of renal mass, about 100.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
NMAP level studySeptember 2019-September 2021

To observe the difference in the expression level of nicotinamide metabolism related protein (NMAP) in the serum of newly diagnosed renal cancer and non-renal cancer patients. Draw the NMAP ROC curve and establish the appropriate Cut-off value to analyze its sensitivity and specificity.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
NMAP plus other tumor biomarkers studySeptember 2019-September 2021

According to NMAP and combined with other tumor biomarkers data such as AFP, multiple regression analysis was used to map the ROC curve and establish the appropriate Cut-off value to determine whether it is capable of distinguishing kidney cancer and liver cancer.
