Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: Patients who are seen at all the USC facilities who have metastatic or unresectable non-small cell lung carcinoma and will be starting a new line of systemic treatment will be recruited.

Who may be able to join

  • A diagnosis of non-small cell lung carcinoma for which the molecular profile of the primary tumor has been obtained from a block of paraffin-embedded, formalin-fixed tissue that remains available
  • Zubrod performance status 0 or 1
  • Patients must have metastatic or unresectable disease and be starting a new line of systemic treatment at the time of enrollment; there are no constraints regarding the time interval between the initial collection of samples for molecular profiling studies at the time of diagnosis prior to treatment and subsequent collections of circulating cell-free deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) or circulating tumor cells
  • Patients must have measurable disease according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v)1.1
  • Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent; Note: There will be no discrimination between type of treatment or whether they are on continuous versus intermittent therapy

Who cannot join

  • Known severe anemia (hemoglobin [Hb] < 8g/dL)
  • Patients will be excluded if trackable driver mutations are not identified in the primary tumor tissue

About this study

Official title: Longitudinal Monitoring of Tumor Specific Mutations in Patients With Lung Cancer

This pilot research trial studies the collection of blood samples in monitoring tumor specific mutations in patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot be removed by surgery. Collecting blood samples may help measure the changes in lung cancer, better learn methods to track cancer in the bloodstream, and improve cancer treatments.

Read the detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:

  1. To evaluate the ability of next generation sequencing (NGS) to monitor the evolution of cancer-specific mutations in patients undergoing treatment for non-small cell lung carcinoma and for whom the molecular profile of the tumor cells prior to treatment is known.

II. Compare the sensitivity of digital droplet polymerase chain reaction (ddPCR) to that of NGS for detecting the appearance of EGFR T790M mutations in patients treated with an EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo collection of blood samples at baseline and every 12 weeks for up to 6 times.

Being tested
Biospecimen Collection, Laboratory Biomarker Analysis
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

What is being measured

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

  1. Blood sample collection for tumor specific mutations study from patients with non-small cell lung cancer

    Blood samples collected will be used to evaluate the ability of next generation sequencing (NGS) to monitor the evolution of cancer-specific mutations in patients undergoing treatment for non-small cell lung carcinoma and for whom the molecular profile of the tumor cells prior to treatment is known.

    Measured: Baseline to 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stage III Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer AJCC v7 and Stage IIIA Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer AJCC v7, run by University of Southern California 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 5 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2024. 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 stopped early (reason given: Insufficient accrual). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Blood sample collection for tumor specific mutations study from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (time frame: Baseline to 3 years). 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 9 Jan 2024.
