About this study
Official title: Prediction of Immunotherapy Efficacy Based on Transcriptome of CX3CR1+T Cell in Peripheral Blood
This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between the proportion of flow-sorted CX3CR1+T cells in peripheral blood and the CX3CR1+T-specific gene signature and the efficacy of immunotherapy.
Read the detailed description
The status and abundance of T cells vary across tumor microenvironments (TMEs) may fundamentally influence response to immunotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer. CX3CR1+ CD8+ T cells showed high migration in and were enriched in the blood, whose amplification is strongly associated with response to anti-PD-1 therapy and better survival. However, the prediction performance of CX3CR1+ T features and characteristics has not been fully validated. This study intends to conduct a clinical trial based on CX3CR1+ CD8+T Cell in peripheral blood to verify the association of proportion and specific transcriptome signature of CX3CR1+T Cell in immunotherapy efficacy prediction. With the help of RECIST 1.1 criteria, the investigators evaluate the clinical response after prescribed cycles of treatment to explore the correlation between peripheral blood markers and immunotherapy efficacy. To develop a low cost, robust and accurate prototype prediction model for NSCLC patients who take anti-PD-1 drugs is investigators final translational purpose.

PD-1 inhibitor based immunotherapyDrug
Patients received at least 4 cycles of PD-1 inhibitor-based immune monotherapy or chemoimmunotherapy. PD-1 drug selection should be limited in 4 types of PD-1 inhibitor approved by China FDA and launched in China and Opdivo or Keytruda.
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
objective response rate(ORR)
Imaging findings of CR, PR, and stable disease (SD) in all subjects evaluated according to RECIST V1.1 after completing 4 cycles of immunotherapy. best overall response (BoR) was evaluated in participants achieving complete and partial response.
Measured: 4 weeks
Secondary outcomes (2)
progression-free survival (PFS)
progression-free survival (PFS) defined as time from surgery until disease progression or death from any cause
Measured: 1 year

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?
objective response rate(ORR) (time frame: 4 weeks). 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 NCT06054152, which also lists 3 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 25 Jun 2025.
