About this study

This study aimed to detect cell free DNA (cfDNA) in the cerebrospinal fluid and plasma, and to determine whether cfDNA can be used for concomitant diagnosis to improve the treatment efficacy and prognosis of patients with brain (meningeal) metastasis by monitoring tumor-related genetic mutations in cfDNA in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid.

Read the detailed description

This study planned to enroll 50 patients with lung cancer diagnosed with brain (meningeal) metastases, and all cases were slated to receive radiotherapy and targeted therapy. Patients' clinical data were collected (including but not limited to: age at diagnosis with brain (meningeal) metastases, KPS score, smoking history, stage of disease at diagnosis, time to progress to brain metastases, number of brain metastases, extracranial metastases (ECM), and systemic disease at the time of brain metastases. Anticoagulated whole blood and anticoagulated cerebrospinal fluid were collected before local treatment (samples of primary cancer tissue and metastatic carcinoma of some patients were preserved) and at 7 days, 1 month, 3 months, as well as 6 months after the treatment (time of sample retention was to be determined, Figure 2). DNA was extracted from tumor tissues, genomic DNA was extracted from leukocytes, and cfDNA was extracted from plasma and cerebrospinal fluid, for complete quantitative detection of DNA, DNA library construction, as well as targeted capture sequencing. Tumor-related genes were analyzed, and changes in the tumor burden during the treatment process were evaluated. The clinical significance of cfDNA in the plasma and cerebrospinal fluid for treatment efficacy and prognosis was evaluated, and compared with that of clinical indicators of treatment efficacy.

This study involved two stages. The first stage was a pre-experiment: samples were retained from 3-5 cases, and mutations in tumor-related genes in the cfDNA in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid were compared. The investigators analyzed, combined with clinical indicators, whether mutations of cfDNA in plasma accord with that of the cerebrospinal fluid and whether mutations of cfDNA in cerebrospinal can reflect the mutational status of tumor cells. The second phase was conducted by expanding the number of cases, based on the first stage.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Recruitment, run by Shandong Cancer Hospital and Institute.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jan 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Yong Wang, PhD (13365318361, doctorwy@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

investigate new diagnosis method for lung adenocarcinoma with brain (meningeal) metastasis (time frame: Participants are followed in 6 months after treatment). 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 NCT03029065, 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 24 Jan 2017.
