About this study
DART is an exploratory molecular analysis study to assess potential early biomarkers of treatment response in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC)
Read the detailed description
If cancer that starts in the head or neck is not suitable for surgery or radiotherapy, then it cannot be cured. Unfortunately, people in this situation have a short life expectancy, with half dying within 12 months. There are treatments available that have helped people in this situation live longer, most recently drugs that stimulate the body's own immune system to attack the cancer, known as 'immunotherapy'. Some people do very well on these treatments, living many years, while the same treatments offer no benefit to others - it is not known why. This study is looking at collecting samples of a person's cancer, along with other body fluids, particularly blood and saliva, to see if the investigators can track changes in blood and saliva that happen in a person's cancer while they are receiving treatment. Additionally, samples of the cancer will be used to see if they can be grown in the laboratory to test growth behaviour and how well different treatments work.
The investigators will ask people being treated for incurable cancer that started in the head and neck for permission to collect their blood and saliva, along with samples of their cancer tissue, while they are having treatment. Nearly all patients will require a sample of their cancer tissue taken with a needle (a 'biopsy') anyway, and tissue samples can be taken as part of this process. Similarly, the safe administration of cancer drugs requires blood tests before every course of treatment, and research bloods can be taken from the same blood draw. A small number of people will be asked whether they give their permission for an extra biopsy of their cancer to allow further comparisons in the laboratory.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Circulating tumour DNA dynamicsGenetic
Circulating tumour DNA (ctDNA) can be identified in patients with a wide variety of cancers and has been shown to allow early prediction of disease relapse after treatment with curative intent in HNSCC.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Patients receiving systemic therapies for cancers of the head and neck | Patients undergoing systemic therapy for recurrent, metastatic, or locally advanced cancer of the head and neck not suitable for treatment with curative intent. A biological research study involving the collection of blood, tumour tissue, saliva, and other body fluids routinely examined during cancer care (e.g. cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), ascites, urine, stool or pleural fluids). Receives: Genetic: Circulating tumour DNA dynamics |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
The level of circulating tumour DNA pre-treatment will be descriptively compared to the levels detected at subsequent time points
Measured: Through study completion, expected duration of 5 years
Secondary outcomes (5)
To collect longitudinal biological samples, including blood, saliva and tissue, for molecular profiling
Molecular profiling to include extraction of DNA for sequencing, RNA for gene expression analysis, expansion of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and proteins for proteomic studies

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Head and Neck Cancer, run by Royal Marsden NHS Foundation Trust at 1 site in United Kingdom.
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 4 inclusion and 2 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 9 Aug 2024. 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 United Kingdom. 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?
Contact Ben O'Leary (02071535337, ben.oleary@icr.ac.uk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
The level of circulating tumour DNA pre-treatment will be descriptively compared to the levels detected at subsequent time points (time frame: Through study completion, expected duration of 5 years). 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 NCT05644457, which also lists 11 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 9 Aug 2024.
