About this study

Official title: Safety of Gut Microbiota Reconstruction Plus PD-1/PD-L1 Monoclonal Antibodies to Treat Locally Advanced or Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

In this study, patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC after first-line treatment with PD-1/PDL-1 monoclonal antibody will be treated with Gut Microbiota reconstruction(such as FMT) combined with PD-1/PDL-1 monoclonal antibody. We will evaluate the safety of FMT in the treatment of advanced NSCLC, and analyze the effect of FMT on intestinal flora and immunophenotype of patients.

Being tested
Capsulized Fecal Microbiota Transplant, Anti-programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 monoclonal antibody, Platinum based chemotherapy
Medical subject headings
Carcinoma, Non-Small-Cell Lung

What is being measured

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

  1. Incidence of FMT-related Adverse Events

    Number of patients with adverse events after FMT

    Measured: 2 years

  2. Incidence of anti-PD-1/PD-L1-related Adverse Events

    Number of patients with adverse events related to anti-PD-1/PD-L1 after FMT

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Changes in diversity and composition of gut microbiota

    Compare the difference of gut microbiota diversity and composition between pre-FMT and post-FMT samples. 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: 2 years

  2. Efficiency of FMT engraftment

    Evaluate the acquired similarity of the recipient microbiota to the donor microbiota by measuring the Euclidian distance between donor microbial composition and every available time point of the corresponding recipients, starting from the pre-FMT sample.

    Measured: 2 years

  3. Changes in concentration of peripheral blood mononuclear cells

    Compare composition and content of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (CD8+T-cells, NK cells and myelin-sourced inhibitory cells) between pre-FMT and post-FMT samples. The composition and content of CD8+T-cells, NK cells and myelin-sourced inhibitory cells were analyzed by flow cytometry.

    Measured: 2 years

  4. Changes in concentration of tumor immune related cytokines

    Compare the contents of tumor immune related cytokines (IFNγ、TNF、Granzyme A/B、Perforin and et al) between pre-FMT and post-FMT samples. The contents of tumor immune related cytokines were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.

    Measured: 2 years

  5. Objective response rate (ORR)

    Number of patients with objective responses divided by the total number of evaluable patients, according to imaging studies (RECIST 1.1) and iRECIST

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Capsulized Fecal Microbiota Transplant, Anti-programmed cell death protein 1/programmed death-ligand 1 monoclonal antibody and Platinum based chemotherapy in people with 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 7 inclusion and 19 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 17 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Incidence of FMT-related Adverse Events (time frame: 2 years). 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?
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 17 Aug 2021.
