COVID-19 Vaccine Effectiveness Against Recurrent Infection Among Lung Cancer Patients and Biomarker Research

December 11, 2023 updated by: Peking Union Medical College Hospital

Efficacy of COVID-19 Booster-Dose Vaccine for Re-infection Precaution and Dynamics of Specific Serum Antibodies in the Management of Lung Cancer Patients With Systemic Anti-cancer Treatment

A prospective, open-label and parallel non-randomized control trial and biomarker research study is intended to compare incidence of repeated COVID-19 infection, severe pneumonitis and mortality between lung cancer patients undergoing systemic antitumor therapies who get vaccinated with 1 booster dose(majorly against XBB) and those who refuse. Meanwhile, a biomarker research is designed to monitor serum level dynamics of specific antibodies against COVID-19,analyze its correlation with incidence of breakthrough infection and further explore optimal periods for vaccination.

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

A single booster dose will be administered depending on patients' willingness in the sixth month after symptomatic COVID-19 infection and status including repeated COVID19 infection, critical and/or severe conditions and all-cause death will be recorded during the next 6 months after vaccination or not. For antibody analysis, 5 ml blood samples will be collected from all of the included patients respectively in the 3rd ,4.5th and 6th months after latest occurrence of symptomatic infection and at the same timepoints after booster dose vaccination.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
Experimental: Vaccinated group
Any booster doses(without limitations in the subtypes or brands of the vaccines) recommended or approved by Chinese government will be administered once in the 6th months after latest confirmed COVID-19 infection and during the following 6 months, any conditions including repeated COVID19 infection, critical and/or severe conditions and all-cause death will be recorded.
Biological: Any Chinese government-recommended COVID-19 booster vaccine
Any Chinese government-recommended COVID-19 booster vaccine(such as Recombinant COVID-19 Trivalent (XBB+BA.5+Delta) Protein Vaccine(Sf9 Cell) and so on) will be once administered in the sixth month after COVID19 infection.
No Intervention: Non-vaccinated group
Patients unwilling to get vaccination will be allocated into these group, but any events including recurrent COVID19 infection, critical and/or severe conditions and all-cause death will be recorded in the following six months.
