About this study

Official title: Establishing Clinical Utility Evidence to Support Coverage and Reimbursement for Venn Biosciences' DawnTM: A CPV® Randomized Controlled Trial

QURE will use its CPV technology in a randomized controlled trial to measure how InterVenn Biosciences diagnostic test changes clinical practice and improves patient outcomes.

Read the detailed description

VennBio has developed a pioneering technology, Dawn™, a semi-quantitative assay using ultra-high-pressure-liquid chromatography, quantitative mass spectrometry (MS) that predicts the likelihood of a benefit from pembrolizumab (Keytruda®) or nivolumab (Opdivo®) plus ipilimumab (Yervoy®)), three of the most widely used immune checkpoint inhibitors currently available in the market. The Company's technology is powered by glycoproteomics and artificial intelligence (AI). The AI allows measuring of the glycoproteins and biological makeup of a patient. This combination of technology is meant for physicians to make the best decisions for patient outcomes in immuno-oncology (IO) therapies.

VennBio hopes to make Dawn™'s glycoproteomic solution widely available and is looking to accelerate the adoption of the test in patients with advanced/metastatic NSCLC. To make the test available to more patients, VennBio is looking for established, innovative approaches to gather high-quality prospective clinical utility data quickly. These data will be essential to increase access to the test and to gain coverage and reimbursement.

Accordingly, the proposed study will collect high-quality randomized controlled data from a nationally representative sample of practicing medical oncologists. The primary purposes of this study will be to 1) determine how these physicians currently choose therapy for advanced (i.e., locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic) NSCLC patients, 2) ascertain if introducing the Dawn™ test will improve clinical decision-making, and 3) observe how the educational materials affect physician uptake of the Dawn™ test and treatment of their patients, particularly in assigning immunotherapy (e.g., IO monotherapy vs combination treatment with chemotherapy). Data from this study will investigate the best use case (type of patient) optimally served by Dawn™ testing (and thus the greatest clinical utility) and what physician characteristics (e.g., age, practice setting, training) and practice characteristics (e.g., multi-specialty, private practice, etc.) are associated with these practice changes.

QURE Healthcare is a team of clinicians and researchers that conducts randomized-controlled trials using Clinical Performance and Value (CPV®) patient simulations to generate high-quality clinical utility evidence. CPVs are QURE's scientifically-validated measurement tool, first described in the Journal of American Medical Association (JAMA) in 2000 and now used in scores of scientific investigations. In this research and derivative peer-reviewed publications, QURE's CPV studies efficiently measure clinical practice patterns among active physicians to determine if there is the value of new technologies to payers.

What participants receive

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

  • Educational Materials on the Dawn testOther

    Receive educational materials and sample test results replicating what physicians would receive in the real-world market as they learn about the probability of IO therapy response from the Dawn™ test.

What is being measured

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

  1. CPV-measured clinical score difference

    Pre- and post-difference in the overall and the diagnostic and treatment quality scores between control physicians using standard of care diagnostic tools and intervention physicians using the Dawn™ test. In each CPV, participants' care recommendations are evaluated against evidence-based care scoring criteria which can sum from 0 to a high potential score of up to 100 percent in each domain, where higher scores mean better outcomes. The investigators will measure the overall change in the evidence-based physician behavior including physical exam, workup, diagnosis, and treatment of lung cancer in the CPV patient simulations.

    Measured: [6 months]

  2. CPV-measured cost difference

    Change in cost of related care for patients with lung cancer when comparing the control to the intervention group. (This cost is modeled in part by measuring differential rates of medical interventions selected by each arm and multiplying by average Medicare reimbursement rates for these interventions. The cost is also modeled by examining average per annum costs for patients suffering from lung cancer and multiplying by the percent of patients whose workup and interventions for cancer risks are significantly reduced following the intervention.)

    Measured: [6 months]

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. CPV-measured baseline clinical variation levels

    Participants completing the simulated cases, or CPVs, receive scores based upon the quality of care they provide. This measure will assess the baseline levels of variation in the care of pain patients among all participants, including by use case types. The investigators will measure the baseline levels of variation in the assessment, recognition, and management of lung cancer among all participants.

    Measured: [6 months]

  2. CPV-measured assessment of use case types

    The difference in the overall, and the diagnostic and treatment quality scores between control and intervention participants. Diagnostic and treatment scores are calculated as the percent correct on CPVs, and the overall score is an average score of the subcategory scores (percent correct). This will be examined for each of the use cases to determine in which case(s) CPV scores most improved.

    Measured: [6 months]

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Educational Materials on the Dawn test in people with Non Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Qure Healthcare, LLC.

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 9 inclusion and 6 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

CPV-measured clinical score difference (time frame: [6 months]). 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 15 Jun 2023.
