Biomarkers in Predicting Treatment Response in Samples From Patients With Early-Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Previously Treated With Adjuvant Chemotherapy

September 19, 2013 updated by: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

The Identification, Validation and Implemention of Prognostic and/or Predictive Biomarkers for Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Early Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

This research trial studies biomarkers in predicting treatment response in samples from patients with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer previously treated with adjuvant chemotherapy. Studying samples of tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors predict how patients will respond to treatment.

Study Overview

Status

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

OBJECTIVES:

I. Validation of the 15-gene prognostic and predictive messenger (m) ribonucleic acid (RNA) signature on Lung Adjuvant Cisplatin Evaluation (LACE)-Bio formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE) tumor samples.

II. Exploratory evaluation of the prognostic and predictive values of known potential oncogenic mutations using LACE-Bio FFPE tumor samples.

III. Exploratory evaluation of the prognostic and predictive values of gene copy variations using LACE-Bio FFPE tumor samples.

IV. Exploratory identification and evaluation of prognostic and predictive value of novel genomic aberrations discovered by Next Generation Sequencing on LACE-Bio tumor samples.

OUTLINE:

Archived RNA and DNA samples are analyzed for gene expression, mutations, and variations by reverse transcriptase (RT)-polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), mass spectrometry (MassARRAY), molecular inversion probe assay, and microarray assays. Results are then compared with patients' clinical outcomes.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Validation of the 15-gene prognostic and predictive mRNA signature by quantitative Nuclease Protection Assay (qNPA) assay and NanoString assay
Time Frame: Post-RNA extraction from tissue
Post-RNA extraction from tissue
Prognostic and predictive value of known potential oncogenic mutations and gene copy variations of novel genomic aberrations on disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS)
Time Frame: Post-RNA extraction from tissue
Survival curves will be estimated using Kaplan-Meier methods and compared with the log-rank test. The hypothesis of constant risk ratio over time in the Cox proportional hazards (PH) model will be tested by introducing a time-dependent interaction with the marker or using Schoenfeld's residuals.
Post-RNA extraction from tissue

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 1, 2012

Primary Completion (Anticipated)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
