Trial summary

Immunotherapy have revolutionized the field of oncology, but response rates are low and all patients relapse, due to cellular and soluble immunosuppressive mechanisms. MDSC are one of the most important immunosuppressive cells, that also harbour non immunologic functions, favouring cancer invasion. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Role of Myeloid Derived Suppressive Cells (MDSCs) and Cancer Stem Cells and Their Cross Talks in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

Immunotherapy have revolutionized the field of oncology, but response rates are low and all patients relapse, due to cellular and soluble immunosuppressive mechanisms. MDSC are one of the most important immunosuppressive cells, that also harbour non immunologic functions, favouring cancer invasion. These non immunologic functions of MDSC in lung cancer will be better characterized. Indeed, cellular mechanisms will be analysed by in vitro studies, assessing the effect of immunosuppressive cells, provided by fresh tumor samples, on phenotype and functions of lung cancer cell lines. The aim of this study is to better characterize immunosuppressive landscape of NSCLC and mechanisms involved in their protumor functions.

Read the detailed description

In recent years, immune-based therapies have revolutionized the field of oncology by significantly improving survival of cancer patients. Despite sustained responses, only 20% to 40% of cancer patients respond. It has become clear that the immunosuppressive environment induced by tumor through cellular and/or soluble pathways critically contribute to hinder efficient antitumor immunity. The inhibition of these immunosuppressive networks thus represents an essential prerequisite for the improvement of responses to anticancer immunotherapies. Several immune cell populations have been identified as key actors of tumor-induced immunosuppression, among which are myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) and regulatory T lymphocytes (Treg). However, in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC), the prognostic role of these cells, the mechanisms underlying their immunosuppressive functions, their "non-immunological" protumoral functions and their role in dampening the efficacy of immunotherapies in clinical practice are less characterized. The aim of this project is to better characterize the non immunologic functions of MDSC. We propose to assess in vitro the non-immunological pro-tumor functions of MDSC isolated from lung cancer patients

What is being measured

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

  1. Comparative analysis of the modifications of phenotype and functions of lung cancer cell lines when exposed to MDSC extracted from patient tumor tissue

    Functional in vitro studies of the effect of MDSC extracted from resected NSCLC prospectively collected on phenotype and function of lung cancer cell lines

    Measured: At the time of surgery only, when fresh tumor is resected

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Neoplasms and Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells, run by University Hospital, Bordeaux at 1 site in France.

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 2 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Jul 2025. 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 France. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Charlotte DOMBLIDES (charlotte.domblides@chu-bordeaux.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparative analysis of the modifications of phenotype and functions of lung cancer cell lines when exposed to MDSC extracted from patient tumor tissue (time frame: At the time of surgery only, when fresh tumor is resected). 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 30 Jul 2025.
