About this study

Official title: Prospective, Open Clinical Study of Postoperative ctDNA Dynamic Monitoring and Its Role of Prognosis in Patients With Stage II to IIIA Non-small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Using Secondary Gene Sequencing (NGS)

The second generation of high-throughput gene sequencing (NGS) is an important means of detecting the tumor DNA and circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), which can detect trace ctDNA from smaller plasma samples. This project is chiefly to study the role of ctDNA dynamic monitoring of stage IIA to IIIA NSCLC by NGS technique to verify the prognostic predictive effect of ctDNA. And the investigators also wander the concordance of lung cancer related genes mutation map and frequency between primary tumors and infiltrated regional lymph nodes.

Read the detailed description

In the NGS era, ctDNA detection can truly reflect the real tumor tissue gene mutation map and frequency. It becomes the evaluation of therapeutic effect and the important monitoring indicators of clinical follow-up after surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy. The second generation of high-throughput gene sequencing (NGS) is an important means of detecting ctDNA, which can detect trace ctDNA from smaller plasma samples. The DNA dynamic monitoring of stage II to IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) was performed by the NGS technique to verify prognostic predictive effect of ctDNA in stage IIA to IIIA NSCLC patients after operation. The lung cancer related genes mutation map and frequency between primary tumors and infiltrated regional lymph nodes seems not exactly consistent. In this study, the investigators will compare the lung cancer related genes mutation map and frequency between primary tumors, bloodstream and infiltrated lymph node by the NGS technique.

  • the ctDNA dynamic monitoringDiagnostic test

    To detect ctDNA in patients using the second generation of high-throughput gene sequencing (NGS)

Study groups in NCT03465241
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Monitoring by NGS groupThis group will accept the ctDNA dynamic monitoring on the following phase:the day before surgery,the 3rd to 7th day after surgery,3 to 4 weeks after adjuvant chemotherapy finished, then every 6 months in the following 2 years.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: the ctDNA dynamic monitoring

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease-free survival

    Disease-free survival was assessed from surgery to disease recurrence or death as a result of any cause

    Measured: 2 years after the last patient enrolled

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the genes mutation map and frequency between primary tumors, bloodstream and infiltrated lymph node

    we will compare the lung cancer related genes mutation map and frequency between primary tumors, bloodstream and infiltrated lymph node by the NGS technique.

    Measured: one month after the last patient enrolled

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of NSCLC, run by Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2021. 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 China. 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?

Disease-free survival (time frame: 2 years after the last patient enrolled). 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 NCT03465241, 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 30 Jul 2021.
