Open-label, Uncontrolled, Non-Interventional, Retrospective Study to Evaluate Molecular Determinants of Outcome to the Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (Anti-PD-1/Anti-PD-L1 Monoclonal Antibodies) Treatment for Solid Tumors

April 23, 2021 updated by: Asylia Diagnostics BV

The recent approval of ICB treatments targeting cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed cell death-1 (PD-1/PD-L1) by the US Food and Drug Administration has offered an improved treatment chance for a variety of malignant tumors, including those with a particularly poor prognosis. However, a growing number of studies and case reports show that immunotherapy may accelerate tumor progression in a significant subset of patients ranging from 9% to 27% across multiple histologies and lead to so-called hyperprogressive disease (HPD) that leads to a rapid patient death.

During this NIS study, Asylia Diagnostics aims to fill in the first layer of knowledge leading to the identification of predictive biomarkers and biological mechanisms that could be used for the prediction, diagnosis, and treatment of melanoma and NSCLC HPD patients.

The study is a retrospective clinical study. During this study basic historical medical information and scrolls from FFPE-preserved biopsies taken prior to immunotherapy treatment will be collected. The nature of the study is not invasive and non interruptive to the standard of care.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access 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.

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 to 95 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Subjects treated by immune checkpoint inhibitors

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Females and males 18-95 y.o.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1 (Karnofsky >/=70%)
  • Histologically or cytologically confirmed melanoma or lung cancer, the grade of the tumor, diagnosed before enrolment into the study.
  • Treatment with anti-PD1/anti-PD-L1 drugs and anti-PD1/anti-PD-L1 drugs in combinations with other therapies
  • Subjects may have received any number of prior lines of chemotherapy or targeted therapies
  • Availability of FFPE tissue samples received prior to any type of antitumor treatment start
  • Complete medical records (stage, receptors status, demographic data)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Has had chemotherapy, targeted small molecule therapy, or radiation therapy >30 Gray within 14 days prior to the baseline biopsy or persistent adverse events (AE) related to prior therapy, which have not recovered (i.e., AEs should be ≤Grade 1 or ≤the value collected at baseline) from AEs due to a previously administered intervention
  • Any evidence of uncontrolled system pathology, active infections, active bleeding diathesis, renal graft, hepatitis B, C or HIV.
  • Autoimmune diseases such as Addison's disease, thyroiditis, lupus (SLE), Sjogren's syndrome, scleroderma, myasthenia gravis, Grave's disease, and Goodpasture's syndrome, requiring active therapy with corticosteroids. If a patient has been taking steroids, at least 2 weeks must have passed since the last dose. Patients with a history of endocrinopathies (e.g. hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, hypopituitarism) are eligible if they are stable on hormone replacement therapy.
  • Patients with prior splenectomy, ocular melanoma
  • Recent (within 1 year) history of another cancer with the exceptions of non-melanoma skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer, or localized cervical cancer
  • Pregnant patients

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.

Measure Description
Time Frame
RECIST
Time Frame: 24 weeks
Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumours
24 weeks

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.

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.

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.
