AI-HOPE Lung Cancer: Building a Predictive Tool for Metastatic Lung Cancer

January 20, 2025 updated by: Francesca Rita Ogliari, IRCCS San Raffaele

The goal of our project is building a predictive response algorithm for patients with metastatic lung cancer, exploiting an artificial intelligence platform. It will collect patient information from all areas (clinical, laboratory, radiological, pathological) and analyse them, understanding connections and correlations, both at baseline and at pre-specified timepoints. It would lead to the development of a reliable and constantly evolving predictive score, able to continuously re-weight the importance of each variable as new data come in.

Since the greatest clinical need is identifying non-responders to immunotherapy and chemo-immunotherapy combination (30% of all treated patients), these two populations are defined as the starting cohorts (Cohort A, immunotherapy alone, Cohort B, chemo-immunotherapy combinations).

For each cohort, three main questions are to be answered:

Q1) Early progressors (defined as progressive disease or death within three months of treatment or at first radiological restaging) Q2) Toxicity (with a special focus on severe toxicities G≥3) Q3) Long survivors (defined as patients reaching an overall survival of at least 1.5x median overall survival in registrative trials)

The early identification of non-responders, high-risk patients (or on the other hand, long survivors) would help their healthcare planning, providing individualised follow-up strategies or prompting their inclusion in alternative treatments (eg clinical trials).

For all cohorts, first data entry will be retrospective and second data entry will be prospective (as validation set).

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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.

Study Type

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Estimated)

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

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients with NSCLC stage IV treated with at least 1 cycle of first-line treatment

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  • Patients with histological or cytological diagnosis of NSCLC
  • Stage IV according to investigator's staging procedures (or any locally advanced tumour not feasible for local radical treatment)
  • Treatment with at least 1 cycle of mono-immunotherapy or chemo-immunotherapy (as per clinical practice)
  • Availability of follow-up

Exclusion criteria:

  • Patients with other thoracic tumours non-NSCLC (i.e. SCLC)
  • Stage other than IV or feasible for radical treatment upfront
  • Treatment within clinical trials (with combination regimens different from the aforementioned combinations)
  • Lost to follow-up

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.

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
Early progressive disease
Time Frame: From date of enrolment until the date of first documented disease progression or death, whichever comes first, assessed within 8 to 12 weeks from first-line treatment start
Number of patients experiencing progressive disease (PD) as best response to first-line treatment
From date of enrolment until the date of first documented disease progression or death, whichever comes first, assessed within 8 to 12 weeks from first-line treatment start
Lung toxicity
Time Frame: From date of enrolment until the date of first documented immune-related pneumonitis of G3 or more, assessed up to 96 months
Number of patients experiencing immune-related pneumonitis of G3 or more
From date of enrolment until the date of first documented immune-related pneumonitis of G3 or more, assessed up to 96 months
Long survivors
Time Frame: At a 3-year cut-off
Numbero of patients experiencing an overall survival (time from treatment initiation to death) longer than 3 years (1.5x median overall survival from clinical trials)
At a 3-year cut-off

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.
