April 18, 2023 updated by: Liu Wenliang, Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University

The Role of Dynamic Circulating Tumor DNA-Molecular Residual Disease (ctDNA-MRD) Testing in Stage IIIB-C Oncogene-negative NSCLC Patients Treated With Induction Chemoimmunotherapy in the Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) Model of Diagnosis and Treatment

The goal of this observational study is to explore whether ctDNA-MRD dynamic monitoring can more effectively predict the therapeutic effect of induction chemoimmunotherapy followed by surgery or non-surgical treatment for stage IIIB-C driver-negative NSCLC in the MDT model, so as to accurately guide clinical diagnosis and treatment.

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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study is a single-center, observational, non-interventional, prospective study. 50 patients diagnosed with stage IIIB-C driver-negative NSCLC receiving induction chemoimmunotherapy will be planned to be enrolled in the study. Pre-treatment biopsy tissues of enrolled patients will be collected for next-generation sequencing (NGS) of institutionally-developed 1021-gene panel, and personalized detection panel will be customized based on NGS testing results. Patients will be received induction chemoimmunotherapy followed by surgery or non-surgical treatment in the MDT model and ctDNA-MRD testing will be performed at prespecified time points. For patients who received surgery following induction therapy, peripheral blood will be collected in baseline, 1 day before the third cycle of neoadjuvant therapy, 1 day before surgery, 3 days after surgery and landmark time and pulmonary venous blood will be collected intraoperatively. For patients who received non-surgical treatment following induction therapy, peripheral blood will be collected in baseline, 1 day before the third cycle of neoadjuvant therapy, 1 day before non-surgical therapy and landmark time. All included patients will be regularly followed up for at least 5 years.

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

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

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
Predicting Progression Free Survival
Time Frame: up to 5 years
Ability of dynamic ctDNA-MRD assessment to predict progression-free survival (PFS) in stage IIIB-C driver-negative NSCLC patients receiving induction chemoimmunotherapy followed by surgery or non-surgical therapy
up to 5 years
Predicting pathologic complete response
Time Frame: Up to 1 year

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

Time Frame: Up to 1 year
The proportion of patients achieved complete or partial remission according to RECIST 1.1 prior to definitive surgery.

Perioperative complications rate
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Number of patients experiencing perioperative complications will be recorded.

Perioperative pain evaluation
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Perioperative pain evaluation assessed by a numeric rating scale (NRS). A total of 11 points from 0 to 10 are used to describe the pain intensity. 0 means no pain, the number of points increases when the pain is stronger, and 10 means the most intense pain.
