About this study

Official title: Development of a Serum Proteomic Classifier for the Prediction of Benefit From Bevacizumab in Combination With Carboplatin and Paclitaxel

RATIONALE: Studying samples of blood in the laboratory from patients undergoing treatment for non-small cell lung cancer may help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.

PURPOSE: This laboratory study is looking at proteomic patterns in stored blood samples from patients undergoing treatment for non-small cell lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To develop a serum proteomic classifier using matrix-assisted laser-desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry analysis of blood samples from patients with non-squamous cell non-small cell lung cancer to predict benefit, in terms of survival and time to progression, from treatment with bevacizumab in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel.

Secondary

  • To better quantitate candidate biomarkers by using more advanced mass spectrometric technologies, including multiple-reaction monitoring and heavy-labeled peptides.

OUTLINE: Previously collected pre-treatment samples of serum or plasma are randomly selected from patients enrolled on protocol ECOG-4599 (i.e., 60 from the bevacizumab arm and 30 from the control arm). Samples are analyzed by matrix-assisted laser-desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry to identify patterns from protein spectra that correlate with patient survival.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer, run by ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group.

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

Who may be eligible to take part?

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 19 May 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Survival (time frame: 1 day). 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 19 May 2017.
