About this study

Official title: Concordance Study for Detection of Chromosomal Aberrations Using FISH (ALK Test)in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

The purpose of the study is the identification of chromosomal aberrations in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) .

The imaging system is intended for diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection, counting and classifying ALK FISH stained lung samples.

Read the detailed description

The ALK Break Apart FISH test detects chromosomal aberrations via fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tissue specimens. The FDA approved ALK kit is designed to detect rearrangements involving the ALK gene (2p23). Results from the ALK Kit are intended for use, in conjunction with and not in lieu of current standard diagnostic procedures, as an aid for the pathologist in the identification of patients eligible for treatment with XALKORI® (crizotinib).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by Applied Spectral Imaging Ltd. 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 6 Feb 2015. 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?

IVD study (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 6 Feb 2015; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
