About this study

Official title: INSPIRE: Integrating Circulating DNA Methylation and Fragmentomics to Scan and Pinpoint Cancer Signals Effectively

This research constitutes a multi-centric, case-control designed investigation aimed at developing and implementing a blinded validation of a machine learning-powered, multi-cancer early detection model. This is to be achieved through the prospective collection of blood specimens from newly diagnosed cancer patients and individuals devoid of a confirmed cancer diagnosis

Read the detailed description

Cancerous tissues, their adjacent non-cancerous tissues, along with white blood cells (WBCs) and normal tissue samples will be utilized to identify potential methylation candidate markers and investigate variations in methylation patterns among patients diagnosed with distinct cancer types. Building upon previous research and current study, a comprehensive methylation signature panel tailored specifically to cancer patients will be established.

We will prospectively collect blood samples from newly diagnosed cancer patients and non-cancer individuals to analyze and identify specific cancer signals via the detection of cfDNA methylation patterns. Following a rigorous and comprehensive research framework, a machine learning-driven model will be developed and validated through blinded testing in an independent cohort. The study aims to enroll approximately 2,650 cancer patients, with a focus on including early-stage cases to enhance the model's sensitivity in detecting cancers with favorable prognoses. Furthermore, around 2,400 control subjects, matched with cancer patients by age and gender and screened negative for cancer through routine tests, will participate as healthy or benign-condition volunteers in model development. Lastly, samples from an additional 300 patients with other tumors will be gathered to conduct interference testing, ensuring the robustness of the model's performance.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Case armParticipants newly diagnosed with cancer, belonging to one of thirteen distinct cancer types.
Control armHealthy or benign condition participants with no cancer diagnosis subsequent to routine cancer screening tests.

What is being measured

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

  1. The AUC, sensitivity, specificity and tissue origin accuracy of the multi-cancer early detection model in detecting cancer or non-cancer

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. The performance of the multi-cancer early detection model in early stage cancer and precancerous lesion cases

    Measured: 12 months

  2. The performance of the multi-cancer early detection model in different subgroups (such as age, gender, cancer pathological classification, and clinical stage)

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and Gastric Cancer, run by Singlera Genomics Inc. 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 7 inclusion and 14 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 21 Feb 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Zhixi Su, PHD (+862180113170 ext. 1022, zhixi.su@singlera.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The AUC, sensitivity, specificity and tissue origin accuracy of the multi-cancer early detection model in detecting cancer or non-cancer (time frame: 12 months). 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 21 Feb 2025.
