About this study

Official title: Observational Study on the Relationship Between Gut Microbiota and Immunotherapy Response of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

This study will analyze the composition and diversity of the gut microbiota of patients with locally advanced or metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) through metagenomic high-throughput sequencing methods, and explore the relationship between the gut microbiota and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment response.

This study will further understand the influence and mechanism of the gut microbiota on tumor immunotherapy, and will provide new ideas and theoretical basis for improving the efficacy of tumor immunotherapy by targeting the gut microbiota in the clinic, and benefit more NSCLC patients.

Being tested
Response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1, Non-response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1Other

    Response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1, after 4 cycles of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment.

  • Non-response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1Other

    Non response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1, after 4 cycles of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment.

Study groups in NCT04682327
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Responder groupAfter the 4 cycles of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 mAbs treatment, the investigators evaluated the subjects' response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1, according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST V1.1) or Modified RECIST 1.1 for immune based therapeutics (iRECIST) . Responders are defined as complete remission, partial remission, or stable disease.
Receives: Other: Response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1
Nonresponder groupAfter the 4 cycles of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment, the investigators evaluated the subjects' response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1, according to the Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST V1.1) or Modified RECIST 1.1 for immune based therapeutics (iRECIST) . Nonresponders are defined as disease progression.
Receives: Other: Non-response to anti-PD-1/PD-L1

What is being measured

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

  1. Diversity and Composition of gut microbiota

    The difference of gut microbiota diversity and composition between Responder group with Non-Responder group. Microbiota diversity will be quantified by α-diversity ( Faith's Phylogenetic Diversity) based on meta-genomics sequencing. Microbiota composition will be quantified by the operational taxonomic unit (OTU) in the stool.

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 4 (each cycle is 21 days)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Concentration of peripheral blood mononuclear cells

    The difference of composition and content of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (CD8+T-cells, NK cells and myelin-sourced inhibitory cells) between Responder group with Non-Responder group. The composition and content of CD8+T-cells, NK cells and myelin-sourced inhibitory cells were analyzed by flow cytometry.

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 4 (each cycle is 21 days)

  2. Concentration of tumor immune related cytokines

    The difference of the contents of tumor immune related cytokines (IFNγ、TNF、Granzyme A/B、Perforin and et al)between Responder group with Non-Responder group. The contents of tumor immune related cytokines were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 4 (each cycle is 21 days)

  3. Incidence of anti-PD-1/PD-L1 related adverse events

    Number of patients with adverse events that received anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment

    Measured: through study completion, up to 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Shanghai Zhongshan 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 10 inclusion and 14 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 13 Aug 2021. 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 Qi Chen, MD (86-17811921405, chenqimd@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diversity and Composition of gut microbiota (time frame: At the end of Cycle 4 (each cycle is 21 days)). 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 13 Aug 2021.
