Trial summary

Spread through air space (STAS) has been reported as a negative prognostic factor in patients with lung cancer undergone sublobar resection. Its preoperative assessment could thus be useful to customize surgical treatment. Radiomics has been recently proposed to predict STAS in patients with lung adenocarcinoma.

About this study

Official title: Could Radiomics Predict Tumor Spread Through Air Space in Lung Adenocarcinoma in All Computed Tomography Settings?

Spread through air space (STAS) has been reported as a negative prognostic factor in patients with lung cancer undergone sublobar resection. Its preoperative assessment could thus be useful to customize surgical treatment. Radiomics has been recently proposed to predict STAS in patients with lung adenocarcinoma. However, all the studies have strictly selected both imaging and patients, leading to results hardly applicable to daily clinical practice. The aim of this study is to test a radiomics-based prediction model of STAS in practice-based dataset and verify its validity and translational potentials.

Radiological and clinical data from 100 consecutive patients with resected lung adenocarcinoma were retrospectively collected for the training section. As in common clinical practice, preoperative CT images were acquired independently by different physicians and from different hospitals. Therefore, our dataset presents high variance in model and manufacture of scanner, acquisition and reconstruction protocol, endovenous contrast phase and pixel size. To test the effect of normalization in highly varying data, preoperative CT images and tumor region of interest were preprocessed with four different pipelines. Features were extracted using pyradiomics and selected considering both separation power and robustness within pipelines. After that, a radiomics-based prediction model of STAS were created using the most significant associated features. This model were than validated in a group of 50 patients prospectively enrolled as external validation group to test its efficacy in STAS prediction.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Adenocarcinoma, run by University of Roma La Sapienza at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Sep 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 Italy. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Sensitivity (time frame: 24 hour before operation). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04893200, which also lists 4 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Sep 2021.
