About this study

Official title: ATORG001 - Molecular Profiling Project

In this study, the investigators plan to undertake comprehensive molecular profiling of "actionable" alterations in lung cancer specimens in order to determine the prevalence of each genetic subtype in the local population.

Read the detailed description

ATORG is undertaking a comprehensive molecular profiling of "actionable" alterations in lung cancer specimens in order to determine the prevalence of each genetic subtype. These mutations are screened using the Oncomine Focus Assay, where 52 genetic alterations - including hotspots, single nucleotide variants, indels, CNVs, and gene fusions - may be detected in a single workflow. Oncomine™ Comprehensive Assay v3, an NGS assay which tests for 161 unique genes (Appendix IV), will be used in a later stage of the study, allowing for broader coverage of potentially targetable alterations. Both assays have a rapid turnaround time and addresses one of the main challenges of solid tumor testing - the scarcity of tissue material - requiring minimal sample input and thus enabling the use of a wider range of sample quality and types, including small biopsies and fine needle aspirates. However, as the list of therapeutically relevant biomarkers continues to expand over time, broader NGS panels will be used subsequently to incorporate emerging alterations. In addition, relevant baseline clinical characteristics are collated e.g. patient demographics, smoking history, number of lines of therapy, as well as outcomes including access to targeted therapies, immune checkpoint inhibitors and overall survival. Through comprehensive annotation of clinical-pathological-molecular characteristics, this study will provide a means to rationalize the application of diagnostic tests, as well as identify prognostic and predictive factors in the treatment of Asian lung cancers.

What is being measured

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

  1. Molecular profiling of lung cancer specimens

    Lung cancer specimens will be collected and profiled at a molecular level to evaluate the molecular epidemiology of NSCLC in Asia

    Measured: After patient meets the eligibility criteria and consent has been taken

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Collection of patient survival status

    Measured: After molecular profiling has been completed, every few months up to 2 years

  2. Collection of subsequent patient treatment status

    Measured: After molecular profiling has been completed, every few months up to 2 years

  3. Collection of the clinical outcomes of the subsequent treatments the patients receive

    Measured: After molecular profiling has been completed, every few months up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by National Cancer Centre, Singapore at 10 sites in 6 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 9 inclusion and 1 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: paused, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in Malaysia, Hong Kong, Brunei, India, Singapore and 1 more country. 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?

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?

Molecular profiling of lung cancer specimens (time frame: After patient meets the eligibility criteria and consent has been taken). 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 12 May 2026.
