About this study

Official title: Prevalence of Sleep Apnea in Lung Cancer

The study seeks to determine the prevalence of sleep disordered breathing in a population of patients diagnosed with lung cáncer.

Read the detailed description

Obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is an important medical condition which causes significant morbidity and mortality. The prevalence of OSAHS in Spain is 4-6% in men and 2-4% in women and rises steadily with age. Snoring and smoking have been independently linked, and smoking may be a risk factor for developing OSAHS. This is particularly true of heavy smokers (> 2 packs/day), those at greatest risk for LC. Associations between OSAHS and some forms of cancer have been described in humans, especially in those experiencing nocturnal hypoxemia, and intermittent hypoxia has been linked to the progression of cancer in animal models. LC is currently the leading cause of cancer deaths in developped nations. A link between OSAHS and LC, therefore, is plausible.

Sleep disordered breathing may be common among patients recently diagnosed of lung cancer and may contribute to tumor progression.

Objectives: a) To perform home sleep testing in patients recently diagnosed with lung cancer in order to determine the prevalence of sleep disordered breathing in this patient population. b) To include biological samples obtained from all participants, including surgically treated patients with stage I / IIp LC through the program in the CIBERES Pulmonary Biobank Platform. Biological samples will be preserved under different storage conditions for subsequent determination of molecular biomarkers. c) To follow-up lung cancer patients with and without sleep disordered breathing in order to determine the potential influence OSAHS might have on their prognosis.

Prospective screening for sleep disordered breathing will be performed by home sleep testing in 100 subjects diagnosed with lung cancer, irrespective of stage at diagnosis, who give their consent. A modified epidemiologic questionnaire for sleep disordered breathing will also be administered. Patients identified as suffering from OSAHS will be referred to sleep clinic. Biologic samples and lung function studies will be obtained in all participating patients.

All patients with lung cancer will undergo follow-up for at least three years or until their demise, and those identified with OSAHS will also be followed in sleep clinic. The prevalence of OSAHS in this patient population will be determined. A link between OSAHS, and especially intermittent nocturnal hypoxemia, and tumor progression will be sought.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sleep testing in people with Lung Cancer and Sleep-Disordered Breathing, run by Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria de la Fundación Jiménez Díaz at 1 site in Spain.

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 9 Nov 2017. 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 Spain. 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?

Prevalence of sleep disordered breathing in lung cancer (time frame: 12 months). 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 NCT02764866, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Nov 2017.
