About this study

Official title: Electromagnetic Navigation Bronchoscopy Guided Ablation Therapy Combined With VATS in the Treatment of Multiple Primary Lung Cancers

The study is designed as a prospective trial whose purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ENB-guided ablation therapy combined with VATS in the treatment of multiple primary lung cancers (MPLC).

Read the detailed description

Patients will be first screened, and only after meeting all the selection criteria, not meeting any exclusion criteria, and signing the informed consent, could they be enrolled in the group to receive ENB-guided ablation therapy combined with VATS. The primary endpoint is objective response rate (ORR). The secondary endpoints include progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and safety.

What participants receive

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

  • ENB-guided ablation therapy combined with VATSProcedure or surgery

    After receiving multidisciplinary assessments, Lesion A will receive ENB-guided ablation therapy and Lesion B will receive VATS at the same time.

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluation of ablation efficacy, ORR (objective response rate)

    ORR is defined as the proportion of patients with complete response (CR) and partial response (PR) after ablation therapy. Efficacy evaluation is based on Modifield Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (mRECIST).

    Measured: From date of treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 1 years.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Evaluation of ablation efficacy, PFS (progression-free survival)

    PFS is defined as the time from the start of treatment to the first occurrence of disease progression or death for any cause.

    Measured: From date of treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 3 years.

  2. Evaluation of ablation efficacy, OS (overall survival)

    OS is defined as the time from the start of treatment to the death of the patient.

    Measured: From date of treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 5 years.

  3. Observation of complications of ablation

    Complications refer to the combination of serious adverse events related to the operation during or after the operation, mainly including pneumothorax and bleeding.

    Measured: From date of treatment to the one month after ablation.

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 Jiayuan Sun, MD, PhD (+86-021-22200000 ext. 1511, xkyyjysun@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Evaluation of ablation efficacy, ORR (objective response rate) (time frame: From date of treatment until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 1 years.). 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 NCT04730453, which also lists 7 linked publications.

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?
