About this study

Official title: The Genetic Evolution and Microenvironment of Multiple Primary Lung Cancer

To investigate the evolutionary genomic landscape, explore the genetic tumor heterogeneity and microenvironment of multiple primary lung cancer (MPLC) by using tissue genetic analysis and circulating tumor DNA detection, in order to provide robust evidence for the diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance of MPLC.

Read the detailed description

Multiple primary lung cancer (MPLC) has become a worldwide problem due to the difficulty in diagnosis, treatment and surveillance. Although exploring tumour clonal heterogeneity and microenvironment can help understand cancer evolution and impact therapeutic outcome, study is still lacking in this field on MPLC. Circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) are short DNA fragments, which can be obtained conveniently and non-invasively, providing comprehensive views of the tumor as were shed by tumor cells from multiple tumor regions. Therefore, we design a prospective study of patients with surgically treated MPLC, aiming to use ctDNA technique to define the evolutionary landscape of MPLC through inter-tumor and intra-tumor heterogeneity by multi-region sampling and genetic analysis. We will also explore the the microenvironment by RNA sequencing and T cell receptor sequencing. This study may help understand the genetic evolution and microenvironment of MPLC, and provide evidence for the diagnosis, treatment and surveillance of these patients.

What is being measured

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

  1. Tumor heterogeneity of multiple primary lung cancer

    Explore the intra-tumor and inter-tumor genetic heterogeneity by analysis of clonal and subclonal mutations detected by ctDNA.

    Measured: 3 year

  2. Microenvironment of multiple primary lung cancer

    Using RNA sequencing and T cell receptor (TCR) sequencing to evaluate the microenvironment of each lesion of multiple primary lung cancer, including T cell receptpr clonality ,diversity , evenness, and richness.

    Measured: 3 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Correlation between ctDNA and clonal variation

    Explore the correlation between the detection rate of ctDNA and subclonal mutations of different tumor sites detected by genetic analysis.

    Measured: 3 year

  2. Correlation between ctDNA and tumor burden

    Explore the correlation between the detection rate of ctDNA and tumor burden.

    Measured: 3 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Primary Lung Cancers and Lung Cancer, run by Peking University People's Hospital.

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 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Contact Kezhong Chen, M.D. ((+86)13488752289, mdkzchen@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Tumor heterogeneity of multiple primary lung cancer (time frame: 3 year). 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?
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 30 Mar 2020.
