About this study

Official title: Mutation Detection of Small Specimens Obtained by Endobronchial Ultrasound Transbronchial Needle Aspiration in Advanced Nonsquamous Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Using Next-generation Sequencing

The objective of the study was to compare the value of routine gene testing and next-generation sequencing (NGS) in detecting gene mutations of small specimens obtained by endobronchial ultrasound transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) and get the knowledge of how many EBUS-TBNA samples were adequate for NGS.

Read the detailed description

Some gene mutations can direct individualized treatment. The routine gene testing of EGFR, ROS1 and ALK is direct sequencing, Reverse transcription quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-QPCR) and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) or immunohistochemistry (IHC). Next-generation sequencing (NGS) is a new technique, which is more sensitive than routine techniques. So we decided to compare the value of gene testing between routine method and NGS in EBUS-TBNA specimens and get the knowledge of how many EBUS-TBNA samples were adequate for NGS.

The study was designed as a prospective and single center study. Seventy patients will be enrolled into the study and the clinical data of the patients, including his smoke history, cancer history, occupation exposure and so on, will be collected and recorded in a case report form. For the patients recruited in the study, the lymph nodes suspected to be malignant will be obtained by EBUS-TBNA. Samples will be sent to Pathology Department of Shanghai Chest Hospital and will be processed with paraffin-embedded, and for those diagnosed with nonsquamous NSCLC, routine gene testing of EGFR, ROS1 and ALK will be performed. And the rest tissues will be extracted with DNA and performed gene mutations using NGS for these qualified DNA samples.

What participants receive

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

  • Routine gene testingProcedure or surgery

    For those diagnosed with nonsquamous NSCLC, routine gene testing including EGFR, ROS1 and ALK will be performed.

  • Next-generation sequencingProcedure or surgery

    For those diagnosed with nonsquamous NSCLC and have done routine gene testing, NGS will be perform on those that have adequate rest tissues.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Values of gene testing between routine method and NGS in EBUS-TBNA specimens (time frame: Up to one and a half 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 NCT02420405, which also lists 5 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.
