About this study

This is a single center, single arm, open and exploratory clinical study, with 50 cases planned for a period of 3 years. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the consistency and accuracy of a Patient-Derived Organoid (PDO) Model of lung cancer to predict the clinical efficacy of anti-cancer drugs, in order to predict the best chemotherapy regimen for each given patient.

Read the detailed description

The aim of the project is to use a combination of patient-derived organoid models:

  • To amplify tumour tissue to obtain enough material for genomic and histological analysis
  • to characterize the lung cancer sub-type
  • To predict treatment (non)response.

The following points will be addressed:

  1. First, the investigators plan to establish and characterize formation of organoids from biopsies of patients with lung cancer: in spheroids, in the 3D cellular model OncoCilAirTM (OncoTheis), and on the chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM). Patient-derived organoids from tumoural tissue (PDO) will be characterized and compared to the original tumour.
  2. Second, the investigators will test the chemoresponse (chemosensitivity and chemoresistance) of organoids to anti-cancer treatment.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient-derived organoid establishment

    Successful generation of lung cancer organoids (growth of lung tumoral cells). The rate of successful generation of lung cancer organoids could vary with the age of the patient, the histological and molecular subtype of lung cancer

    Measured: 3 years

  2. Patient-derived organoid validation

    Proportion of patient-derived organoids that are histologically and genetically identical to the source tumour

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Drug sensitivity

    Drug sensitivity of patient-derived tumour organoids (drug screening and chemotherapy resistance test) Secondary drug effects on patient-derived normal lung organoids

    Measured: 2019 - 2023

  2. Prediction of the response to treatment by the patient-derived organoids

    The drug sensitivity was tested on patient-derived tumour organoids, which is compared with clinical response of the chemo- or targeted therapy treatment.

    Measured: 2020 - 2025

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and Organoid, run by University Hospital, Geneva at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 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 Switzerland. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Veronique SERRE-BEINIER, PhD ((0)223795107 ext. +41, veronique.serre-beinier@hcuge.ch), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient-derived organoid establishment (time frame: 3 years). The study lists 2 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 NCT03979170, 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 3 Jun 2024.
