Detection of Lung Cancer by Plasma Lipids (ELAID)

June 2, 2020 updated by: Jun Wang, Peking University People's Hospital

Detection of Early-stage Lung Cancer Using Machine Learning and Plasma Metabolomics

There are no reliable blood-based tests currently available for early-stage lung cancer diagnosis. We try to establish a highly accurate method for detecting early-stage lung cancer by combining machine learning with untargeted and targeted metabolomics .

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

All plasma lipids were first detected by untargeted metabolomics methods and 9 feature lipids of early-stage lung cancer were selected by support vector machine algorithm. Then, a targeted metabolomics method was developed to detect the 9 lipids quantitatively based on multiple reaction monitoring mode. Finally, a detection model was established based on the 9 lipids.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Participants received surgery
Patients who underwent surgery at the Department of Thoracic Surgery of Peaking University People's Hospital, Jiangsu Cancer Hospital, and Beijing Haidian Hospital were enrolled with the following criteria: 1) pathologically confirmed lung cancer; 2) no history of other malignancies; 3) no anti-cancer treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, etc.) before surgery. Plasma samples were collected before surgery and plasma lipids were detected by mass spectrometry. Pathological diagnosis and clinical characteristics of enrolled participants were retrieved.
Plasma lipids were detected by an Ultimate 3000 ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) system coupled with Q-Exactive MS (Thermo Scientific) . Then a detection model was built based on plasma lipids using machine learning algorithm.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Plasma Lipids
Time Frame: All samples were detected together after participants recruitment and sample collection. All samples were detected within 18 months from sample collection.
A detection model based on 9 lipids were developed, including 3 lysophosphatidylcholines, 5 phosphatidylcholines, and a triglyceride. The 9 lipids were detected by targeted metabolomics by mass spectrometry.
All samples were detected together after participants recruitment and sample collection. All samples were detected within 18 months from sample collection.
