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 with solid tumour scheduled for either biopsy or resection of their tumour(s) as part of their standard of care, and patients with superficial skin or subcutaneous lymph node metastasis that can be safely accessed for the purposes of the study.

Who may be able to join

  • Aged ≥ 18 years
  • Written informed patient consent for tissue, blood collection or leukapheresis, including storage and manipulation.
  • Suspected or confirmed diagnosis of selective solid tumours with either primary, recurrent or metastatic disease.
  • Patient is scheduled for surgical excision and/or collection of multiple tissue samples via image or device guided biopsy, has a superficial skin or subcutaneous lymph node metastasis that can be safely accessed for the purposes of the study.
  • Haemoglobin(Hb) ≥ 10g/dL without transfusion support for at least 3 weeks (for patients donating whole blood).
  • White cell count ≥ 3 x 10^9/L (for patients donating whole blood).
  • For selected solid tumours and leukapheresis procedure additional inclusion criteria apply.

Who cannot join

  • Clinical status precludes surgical removal of, or collection of multiple biopsies from, accessible tumour tissue.
  • Inadequate peripheral venous access precluding collection of blood.
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
  • Known/laboratory confirmed diagnosis of an active infectious disease to include Hepatitis B and C, human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV1/2), Human t-lymphotropic virus (HTLV I/II) and syphilis.
  • Patients who are currently participating in a clinical trial involving an unlicensed medical product.
  • Patients who have received any cytotoxic therapy (including investigational products) within three weeks prior to tissue procurement.
Show all 9Show fewer
  • Patients receiving immunosuppressive treatments or who require regular treatment with steroids at a dose higher than prednisolone 10 mg/day (or equivalent).
  • Any medical reason why, in the opinion of the investigator, the patient should not participate in this study.
  • For selected solid tumours and leukapheresis procedure additional exclusion criteria apply.

About this study

Official title: Prospective Collection of Donor Tissue and Whole Blood or Leukapheresis Product From Patients With Solid Tumours to Enable Development of Methods for the Manufacturing of Clonal Neoantigen T Cell Products (cNeT)

This is a multi-solid tumour research study which collects tumour samples from patients alongside a matched whole blood, and/or leukapheresis product for the development of manufacturing processes for potential immunotherapies.

Read the detailed description

During standard of care surgery tumour samples which are surplus to the requirements of the patients diagnostic/treatment pathway will be procured along with a matched whole blood and/or leukapheresis sample. In some instances patients may consent to provide a non-standard of care, non-invasive research biopsy.

Within 28-42 days following procurement of samples patients will be required to participate in a safety follow up call for assessment of any procedure related adverse events.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Solid Tumor, run by AstraZeneca at 18 sites in 3 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 9 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 23 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 18 sites in United Kingdom, Spain, 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 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?

Obtaining samples for research (time frame: 5 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 23 May 2025.
