Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to help us better understand the cellular changes that may lead to the development of lung cancer. We want to compare people with a second primary lung cancer with those who have only a first primary lung cancer. Read more about this study

Who cannot join

  • Subjects who do not meet the inclusion criteria as either cases or controls will not be eligible for this study.
  • Control subjects who have a history of another cancer, other than nonmelanoma skin cancer or a first primary lung cancer, will not be eligible for this study.
  • Control subjects who otherwise meet the eligibility requirements above but who have had chemotherapy and/or are currently being treated with chemotherapy will be excluded from the functional assay, but not from the genotyping.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to help us better understand the cellular changes that may lead to the development of lung cancer. We want to compare people with a second primary lung cancer with those who have only a first primary lung cancer. We hope to use the information obtained in this study as the basis for future studies and will not regard the results from this study as final.

We will analyze your blood cells and DNA to measure the changes in several genes that we believe may be involved in lung cancer. We also want to evaluate the capacity for your DNA to repair itself.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Blood draw and QuestionnairesOther

    Pt will have three green top tubes of blood drawn. The questionnaire will be filled out by the study subject. This may be completed at home and mailed in a provided stamped addressed envelope if the patient prefer, or obtained by phone interview with a research assistant.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To conduct a pilot study of the role of DNA repair in lung cancer subjects with high genetic risk - those with a second primary lung cancer - compared to subjects with only one lung cancer.

    Measured: conclusion of the study

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. To determine the association between cellular DNA repair and genetic alterations in DNA repair and associated pathways.

    Measured: conclusion of the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and Single Primary Lung Cancer, run by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 16 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Mar 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

To conduct a pilot study of the role of DNA repair in lung cancer subjects with high genetic risk - those with a second primary lung cancer - compared to subjects with only one lung cancer. (time frame: conclusion of the study). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Mar 2023.
