January 16, 2024 updated by: University Hospital, Tours

Immune Response Under Immunotherapy in Metastatic Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Sputum, Blood Samples and Microbiota Study

Prospective pathophysiological exploratory monocentric study, focusing on adult patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) : non-squamous type without oncogenic addiction, metastatic, treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors alone or in combination with chemotherapy in front line at the CHRU de Tours, France.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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

The percentage of patients benefiting from immunotherapy is quite low and their systemic side effects can sometimes be severe. One of the main difficulties is to identify before treatment patients who will respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Currently, the selection is done in a very large majority of cases on the expression of PD-L1 by the tumor. But this biomarker is not sufficient to identify patients responding or not to immune checkpoint inhibitors. In addition, factors extrinsic to the tumor, to its microenvironment and patient immunity may be involved in the response to immunotherapy such as the microbiota.

The investigators therefore assume that the immune response in place during immunotherapy treatment differs according to the profile of patient response to immunotherapy.

The main objective of this project is to describe local and systemic anti-tumor immune system of patients responders or not to immune checkpoint inhibitors, but also whether the immunological characterization of sputum could be a reflection of the microenvironment tumor. The secondary objective is to study the intestinal microbiota tract of patients receiving immunotherapy, depending on their consumption of antibiotics, and compare it to the pulmonary microbiota.

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

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

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.
Group
adult patients with adenocarcinoma type non-small cell lung cancer
Other: Blood
Blood samples are taken at each visit to the day hospital for a programmed injection of immunotherapy.
Other: sputum
induced by saline aerosol sputum during each visit to the day hospital for a programmed injection of immunotherapy.

Stool analyses will be carried out on a sample taken by the patient at home and brought back at the time of a day hospital.

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
Immune and inflammatory response in the blood
Time Frame: 30 months
  • T cell sub populations assessed by their relative abundance, and will be expressed as a percentage of total T cells
  • B lymphocytes
  • Cytokine inflammatory profile: the level of activation/regulation, production of cytokines and cytotoxicity markers will be analysed as a percentage of cells expressing the markers or producing the cytokines in relation to the total cell population (e.g. HLA-DR+, CD38+, Bcl-2lo phenotype of CD8 T lymphocytes)
30 months
Immune and inflammatory response in the airways
Time Frame: 30 months
  • T cell sub populations assessed by their relative abundance, and will be expressed as a percentage of total T cells

30 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.
