Materials and methods:

Approximately 150 patients diagnosed with metastatic NSCLC assigned for immunotherapy or chemotherapy will be candidates for inclusion during a 1-2 years period.

A comprehensive molecular profiling will be made from the diagnostic biopsy. Before every treatment-cycle a blood sample will be taken to quantify ctDNA. At time of progressive disease during/after first line treatment, patients will be asked to participate in a new biopsy and a comprehensive molecular profiling will be performed.

The tissue and blood samples collected will be stored in a biobank. Clinical data will be collected to perform a comprehensive database.

Analysis:

Potentially predictive molecular profiles for immunotherapy/chemotherapy will be found by comparison of treatment outcome for patients with specific molecular characteristics.

Through quantification of ctDNA during treatment and upon progression, the role of ctDNA as a dynamic biomarker will be further strengthened.

Differences in molecular profiles pre- and post-treatment may reveal resistance mechanisms to treatment. Molecular profiling on progression can be valuable in second-line treatment guidance.

What is being measured

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

  1. Predictive gene profiles

    Concordance between specific gene profiles and treatment outcomes

    Measured: until progression or death, an average of 3 years

  2. Resistance mechanisms toward chemotherapy and immunotherapy

    Differences in molecular profiles pre- and post-treatment

    Measured: until progression or death, an average of 3 years

  3. ctDNA as a dynamic biomarker

    Quantification of ctDNA during treatment linked to treatment outcome

    Measured: until progression or death, an average of 3 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Metastatic Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer, run by Zealand University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 6 inclusion and 3 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 6 Feb 2023. 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 Denmark. 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?

Predictive gene profiles (time frame: until progression or death, an average of 3 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT03512847, which also lists 2 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 6 Feb 2023.
