About this study

Fifteen cohorts will be opened. Each cohort will explore one analysis method and/or tumoral type. Up to 50 patient can be included into each cohort.

Being tested
Blood sampling

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. CTC, CEC or ctDNA incidence

    number of CTC or CEC in 7.5ml of blood

    Measured: 3 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. CTC and CEC molecular characterization

    This outcome is self-explanatory.

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) detection and quantification

    plasma mutation detection (number of copy)

    Measured: 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Blood sampling in people with Solid Tumor, Adult, run by Institut Curie at 3 sites in France.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 8 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France. 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?

CTC, CEC or ctDNA incidence (time frame: 3 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02220556, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 8 Aug 2025.
