Trial summary

Recent EMA and FDA approvals have made immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) a standard of care in cancer treatment. ICI, used alone or as a combination are now the backbone of renal cell and lung carcinoma treatment. However, a significant proportion of patients does not respond to ICI. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Assessment of Metabolic and Immune Profiles in Patients Receiving Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (ICI) for Advanced Renal Cell Carcinoma or Lung Carcinoma.

Recent EMA and FDA approvals have made immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) a standard of care in cancer treatment. ICI, used alone or as a combination are now the backbone of renal cell and lung carcinoma treatment. However, a significant proportion of patients does not respond to ICI. Thus the identification of predictive response factor is a major issue.

While factors associated with the tumour and its micro environment have been widely studied, factors associated with the patient such as metabolism could also affect the response to ICI and remain poorly studied.

The hypothesis of the investigators is that dysmetabolims, via the induction of a chronic inflammatory state could induce a defect of lymphocyte production and activation as well as a modification of the immunogenicity of tumor cells and immune cells infiltration. The consequences could be a decrease in ICI response rate as well as an increase in immune related adverse events (irAEs).

To test this hypothesis, the investigators propose a prospective bi-centric exploratory study including 60 patients treated with ICI for advanced lung or renal cell carcinoma.

The data collected will be :

  • Clinical (calorimetry, impedancemetry, survey of eating habits, tumour characteristics, epidemiological data),
  • Biologics (baseline and 3-months plasma bio banking for standard biology, inflammation markers TNF- α, IL1-6-8-11-17, TGF-ß, TWEAK, complement study C3, C4, C4d, CH50, C1q, CD46)

Primary objective is to assess the response to ICI depending on metabolic status.

Secondary objectives are to study the relationships between metabolism / cytokines profile/ complement profile and ICI response.

The investigators seek to generate hypotheses and to obtain exploratory data before submission of a Hospital Clinical Research Program whose objective will be to evaluate the impact of dysmetabolism on overall survival and to characterize immune and anatomopathological profiles (using DNA microarrays and flow cytometry techinques) of patients treated with ICI for renal cell or lung carcinoma.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing calorimetry, impedance measurement at baseline and after 3 months of treatment in people with Metabolism Disorder and Cancer, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris at 2 sites in France.

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 3 inclusion and 7 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 11 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

response rate according to metabolic status (time frame: 6 months from randomisation). 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 11 Jul 2024.
