Key requirements

  • Ages 18 to 90 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • patients with peripheral lung lesion suspected of lung cancer detected on the chest computed tomography (CT) and RP-EBUS scans

About this study

Official title: Observational Participants Not Assigned to Intervention(s) Based on a Protocol; Typically in Context of Routine Care

This study is designed to evaluate complications, specificity, diagnostic yield of radial endobronchial ultrasound guided transbronchial cryobiopsy and transbronchial forceps biopsy with fluoroscopy in the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesion; the interplay between non-small-cell lung cancer associated-bacteria along the gut-lung axis and immune response in the cancer microenvironment.

Conditions
Lung Cancer
Being tested
Transbronchial forceps biopsy, Transbronchial forceps biopsy+Transbronchial cryobiopsy

What participants receive

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

  • Transbronchial forceps biopsyDiagnostic test

    All patients with peripheral lung lesion suspected of lung cancer detected on the chest computed tomography (CT) and mini probe endobronchial ultrasound (RP-EBUS) scans were enrolled. Transbronchial forceps biopsy (TBFB) was performed for all these patients.

  • Transbronchial forceps biopsy+Transbronchial cryobiopsyDiagnostic test

    All patients with peripheral lung lesion suspected of lung cancer detected on the chest computed tomography (CT) and RP-EBUS scans were enrolled. TBFB was performed for all these patients. In addition, all of these patients, with no contraindications, underwent transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transbronchial forceps biopsy and Transbronchial forceps biopsy+Transbronchial cryobiopsy in people with Lung Cancer, run by Lithuanian University of Health Sciences at 1 site in Lithuania.

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 8 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 4 Oct 2023. 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 Lithuania. 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?

progression-free survival (time frame: one year after enrolment to the study). 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 4 Oct 2023.
