Trial Information

The Relationship of Serum 25-Hydroxyvitamin D to Overall Survival in Advanced Pancreatic Cancer


OBJECTIVES:

Primary Objective

- To measure baseline serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) levels in a cohort of patients
with advanced pancreatic cancer enrolled in the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB)
study 80303 and evaluate the association between vitamin D status and overall survival
(OS).

Secondary Objective

- To evaluate the association between common germ-line single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs) in the vitamin D pathway genes and 25(OH)D levels in patients with advanced
pancreatic cancer.

- To evaluate the interaction between serum 25(OH)D levels and germ-line SNPs in the
vitamin D pathway genes in predicting OS in advanced pancreatic cancer.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Archived serum samples are analyzed for 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels by competitive
chemiluminescence immunoassay. Results are then compared with the germ-line single
nucleotide polymorphisms from the Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) and patients'
clinical data.
