About this study

Official title: Long-term Outcome of Primary Tumor Resection in Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer Patients With Dry Pleural Dissemination: A Multi-center Study

The goal of this mutli-center observational study is toinvestigate the impact of primary tumor resection (PTR) on the long-term survival of patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and dry pleural dissemination (DPD). The main question it aims to answer is: whether primary tumor resection improve long-term survival of NSCLC patients with dry pleural dissemination.

Read the detailed description

Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients with dry pleural dissemination have poor survival rates and are generally contraindicated for surgery. Previous single-center retrospective studies have suggested that these patients may benefit from primary tumor resection (PTR). However, the evidence supporting PTR is still limited, especially in the era of targeted therapy. This study aimed to investigate the impact of PTR on the long-term survival of patients with NSCLC and DPD.

Being tested
Primary tumor resection or not

What participants receive

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

  • Primary tumor resection or notProcedure or surgery

    For patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and dry pleural dissemination, surgical decisions to perform exploratory thoracotomy only or primary tumor resection with wedge resection, segmentectomy, or lobectomy were based on surgeon experience and patient preference.

Study groups in NCT06232967
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Primary tumor resection (PTR group)includes wedge resection, segmentectomy, or lobectomy.
Receives: Procedure: Primary tumor resection or not
Exploratory thoracotomy (ET group)JSimply open and close surgery.

What is being measured

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

  1. Disease-specific survival (DSS)

    The duration from the day of surgery to the the last follow-up visit or to death specifically caused by NSCLC.

    Measured: Up to 8 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Progression-free survival (PFS)

    The duration of survival with no evidence of progression of the disease.

    Measured: Up to 8 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non-small-cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC), run by Daping Hospital and the Research Institute of Surgery of the Third Military Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 27 Jun 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 China. 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?

Disease-specific survival (DSS) (time frame: Up to 8 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 NCT06232967, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Jun 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
