About this study

Official title: Qualification of Imaging Methods to Assess Cancer Drug Induced Interstitial Lung Disease (ImageILD)

Drug induced interstitial lung disease (DIILD) is caused by iatrogenic injury to the lung parenchyma and can be caused by over four hundred different drugs in humans. Diagnosing DIILD is a challenge for clinicians and radiologists as a positive diagnosis depends on exclusion of other causes including respiratory infection, occupational, recreational, and environmental exposures, specific respiratory disorders, and systemic diseases.

The aim of this study is to qualify an objective CT scoring system for DIILD assessment. In addition, the quantitative information obtained from CT scans with densitometry and texture analysis will be explored.

Clinical evaluations, Thoracic CT

What participants receive

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

  • Clinical evaluationsOther

    At study entry , 6 weeks and 6 months, enrolled patients will undergo pulmonary physiology tests, assessment of respiratory symptoms, respiratory examination, pulse oximetry, blood draws, respiratory and quality of life assessment. Data from bronchoscopy assessments will be collected, if this has been performed as part of routine care.

  • Thoracic CTOther

    At study entry, patients will undergo thoracic CT before treatment adaptation, unless a study-quality scan* has already been performed . Thoracic CT will be repeated at 6 weeks. All images will be centrally reviewed for radiology scoring.

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation coefficient between semi-quantitative CT score and FVC (forced vital capacity)

    The primary objective of the study is to qualify an objective semi-quantitative CT scoring system looking at the correlation between the change in the semi-quantitative CT score at 6 weeks relative to baseline (DIILD diagnosis) against the change in Forced vital capacity (FVC) at 6 weeks relative to baseline (DIILD diagnosis). The semi-quantitative CT score will be calculated based on CT features: 1)ground-glass opacity 2) reticular/septal lines 3) honeycombing 4) nodular opacity 5) consolidation.

    Measured: analyses will be performed 3.5 years after First Patient In

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Correlation coefficient between the semi-quantitative CT score with the other pulmonary physiology measurements (DLCO and 6WMT) and patient reported outcome (respiratory and quality of life).

    Measured: analyses will be performed 3.5 years after First Patient In

  2. To evaluate the predictive value of change in the semi-quantitative CT score.

    To evaluate the predictive value of change in the semi-quantitative CT score at 6 weeks relative to baseline (DIILD diagnosis) against change in pulmonary physiology measurements and patient reported outcome (respiratory and quality of life) at 6 months relative to baseline.

    Measured: analyses will be performed 3.5 years after First Patient In

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Clinical evaluations and Thoracic CT in people with Drug Induced Interstitial Lung Disease (DIILD) Cancer Patients, run by European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer - EORTC.

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 11 inclusion and 7 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 29 Sep 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 Bianca Colleoni, PhD (+32 (0)2 774 15 70, bianca.colleoni@eortc.be), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation coefficient between semi-quantitative CT score and FVC (forced vital capacity) (time frame: analyses will be performed 3.5 years after First Patient In). 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 29 Sep 2017.
