About this study

Official title: Personalizing Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor Therapy for Solid Tumors

This prospective, observational study will evaluate whether vitro testing of tumor tissue and white blood cells from patients with lung cancer who are being treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors and other standard of care approaches, predicts clinical response to these agents.

Read the detailed description

Overall Goal: The long-term goal of this study is to predict whether checkpoint inhibitors will be effective in individual patients with solid tumors.

Objectives: In this pilot study to be conducted in ten subjects with lung cancer who are to receive checkpoint inhibitors, we will use cellular and molecular techniques to characterize

  • tumor immunogenicity
  • anti-tumor T-cell response
  • effect of checkpoint inhibitors on antigen presentation and T-cell response, and
  • the tumor microenvironment

Planned enrollment:

  • Ten subjects with lung cancer

Methods for Informed Consent:

Investigators will approach subjects for informed consent

Being tested
Blood and tumor tissue analysis, Clinical response.
Medical subject headings
Lung Neoplasms

What participants receive

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

  • Blood and tumor tissue analysis, Clinical response.Other

    DNA sequencing and functional testing of peripheral blood mononuclear cells. DNA and RNA sequencing and immune cell analysis of tumor. Clinical response at 12 months.

What is being measured

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

  1. Anti-tumor immune response

    Tumor antigen presentation and anti-tumor T-cell response

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Clinical response

    Clinical response is defined as 50% or greater decrease of the sum of the products of two-dimensional measurements of lesions on imaging within the first year.

    Measured: 12 months for each subject

  2. Tumor microenvironment

    Tumor mutation burden from tumor genome landscape using DNA sequencing, tumor transcriptome with RNA sequencing, tumor infiltrating immune cells with flow cytometry

    Measured: 24 months total study duration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer Stage IV, run by Holy Cross Hospital, Maryland at 1 site in United States.

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 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Sep 2020. 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 United States. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Anti-tumor immune response (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 NCT03409341, which also lists 6 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 24 Sep 2020.
