Genotyping of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

July 28, 2014 updated by: National Taiwan University Hospital

Genotyping of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Cells - A Study of Taiwan Lung Cancer Clinical Trial Consortium (TALCC)

The logical next step is to integrate molecular profiling into the care of all patients with NSCLC.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Unknown

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

NSCLC is an area of oncology in which clinicians are beginning to use specific tumor-associated molecular aberrations to assign and/or prioritize targeted therapies for patients. At this early stage, multiple hurdles remain before molecular profiling becomes a routine part of thoracic oncology practice. In particular, to develop specific targeted therapies for patients whose tumors harbor rare mutations, it will be important to identify appropriate candidates, design the appropriate trials, and execute the trials with adequate numbers to achieve the necessary endpoints. Implementation will facilitate realization of the promise of molecularly tailored therapy, which could lead to more effective treatments with fewer side effects.

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

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Probability Sample

Study Population

We plan to collect 300 EGFR mutation positive samples (approximately 200 de novo, 100 after treatment), 200 EGFR wild type adenocarcinoma patients and 100 other NSCLC patients in 3 years.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients who have participated or will be participating a lung cancer clinical trial that use EGFR-TKI or chemotherapy as first line or second line treatment.
  2. Pathologic or cytological confirmation of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with available tissue
  3. Patients must understand and provide written informed consent prior to initiation of any study-specific procedures
  4. Have a life expectancy 3 months.
  5. Have stage IV NSCLC (AJCC, 7th Edition)

  6. No or one prior systemic therapy for advanced or metastatic NSCLC 6.1.Adjuvant chemotherapy: The adjuvant chemotherapy (e.g. vinorelbine / cisplatin) should be counted as one prior systemic therapy if the interval between the completion of adjuvant chemotherapy and the documentation of recurrence within 12 months.

    6.2.Maintenance therapy: The maintenance therapy (e.g. pemetrexed) following the first-line systemic chemotherapy which achieved complete response, partial response, or stable disease should not be counted as one prior systemic therapy if the maintenance drug was used in first-line combination therapy

  7. ≥20 years
  8. ECOG performance status 0 - 2
  9. If there is no available archived tissue, the subject must consent to undergo a biopsy or surgical procedure to obtain tissue within 1 month prior to study entry, which may or may not be part of the patient's routine care for their malignancy.

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Prior history of another malignancy (other than cured basal cell carcinoma of the skin or cured in-situ carcinoma of the cervix) within 5 years of study entry.
  2. Known HIV infection.
  3. If subject has no archival tissue and refuse to do any biopsy or surgery for molecular testing

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
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.

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
frequency of individual genotyping
Time Frame: 2 months
To determine the frequency of individual genotyping in cancer cells of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who have participated or will commence the clinical trial.
2 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
determine the frequency by DNA mass spectrometry
Time Frame: 2 months
To determine the frequency with which molecular profiling of a NSCLC patient's tumor by DNA mass spectrometry yields a target against which there is approved or investigational therapeutic regimen.
2 months
response rate
Time Frame: 1 year
To determine the response rate according to RECIST, progression-free, and overall survival in patients with advanced NSCLC whose therapy is selected by molecular profile.
1 year
