Trial summary

Lung cancer is the most common cancer with the highest morbidity and mortality in the world. Stagement is closely related to the 5 years of survival rate of patients. The postoperative 5-year survival rate is above 90% for stage ⅠA lung cancer patients, while the 5-year survival rate of stage IV lung cancer patients… Read more about this study

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 20 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: 500 cases will be enrolled including 100 cases of benign pulmonary nodules, 300 cases of stage I and II lung cancer, 100 cases of stage III lung cancer. All enrolled patients are newly diagnosed as pulmonary nodules by imaging, benign and malignant conditions of the nodules are determined by postoperative pathology after surgical resection. All clinacal data including cancer stage information are available.

Who may be able to join

  • Enrolled patients are newly diagnosed patients
  • In patients diagnosed as pulmonary nodules by imaging, benign and malignant conditions of the nodules are determined by postoperative pathology after surgical resection
  • There is clear cancer stage information
  • In addition to pulmonary nodules, there are no suspicious nodules of other organs
  • No previous history of malignant tumor

Who cannot join

  • Patients with a history of malignant tumor
  • Patients with suspectednodules in other parts of the body at the time of diagnosis
  • Patients who have previously received surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy for pulmonary lesions
  • Patients with severe blood lipid in peripheral blood extracted which affects subsequent detection

About this study

Official title: Plasma Biomarkers as a Non-invasive Approach for Early Diagnosis of Lung Cancer

Lung cancer is the most common cancer with the highest morbidity and mortality in the world. Stagement is closely related to the 5 years of survival rate of patients. The postoperative 5-year survival rate is above 90% for stage ⅠA lung cancer patients, while the 5-year survival rate of stage IV lung cancer patients is less than 5%. Therefore, early screening and diagnosis for lung cancer is a key method to reduce lung cancer mortality and prolong survival for patients.

At present, low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) is the most effective method for early detection of lung cancer. In addition to imaging examination, plasma tumor markers detection is also a common clinical detection method for tumor screening and postoperative monitoring.

Liquid biopsy is a non-invasive or minimally invasive method for testing blood or other liquid samples to analyze tumor-related markers including nucleic acids and proteins. Several studies have explored the detection of hot spot gene mutations, methylation and methylation changes of DNA, protein markers and autoantibodies in peripheral blood in lung cancer patients. Liquid biopsy has generally become the most popular field for early diagnosis of lung cancer.

Based above, it is necessary to combine multi-omics methods to improve the detection of early stage lung cancer. In our study, we intend to integrate molecular features obtained through liquid biopsy and clinical data of lung cancer patients, and develop and prospectively validate a machine-learning method which can robustly discriminate early-stage lung cancer patients from controls.

    In our study, we intend to integrate molecular features obtained through liquid biopsy and clinical data of lung cancer patients, and develop and prospectively validate a machine-learning method which can robustly discriminate early-stage lung cancer patients from controls.

What is being measured

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

  1. Rates of malignant and benign pulmonary nodules measured by the postoperative pathology

    After the sugery of each patients with pulmonary nodules, we will get the clinicopathologic characteristics of the patients. Tumor stage and grade will be evaluated by us and rates of malignant and benign pulmonary nodules will be the primary outcome which we follow.

    Measured: 5 days after the surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer, run by Peking University People's Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 22 Sep 2020. 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 China. 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?

Contact Kezhong Chen, M.D. (+8613488752289, mdkzchen@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Rates of malignant and benign pulmonary nodules measured by the postoperative pathology (time frame: 5 days after the surgery). 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 22 Sep 2020.
