Using E-Nose Technology to Measure Response to Treatment in People With Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma

September 8, 2023 updated by: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Breathprinting (E-Nose) Technology to Measure Response to Treatment of Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) Through MPM-Specific Volatile Organic Compounds Detected in Exhalates

The researchers are doing this study to test the ability of a new technology called breathprinting, or electronic nose (E-Nose), to measure how people respond to standard treatment for malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). The researchers will study how E-Nose breathprints change over time as people receive standard treatment for MPM. They will also look at how changes in people's E-Nose breathprints compare to changes in their standard imaging scans and in biomarkers of MPM in their blood.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: E-Nose Technology
Patients will undergo E-Nose testing at baseline (before any treatment is administered) and at three points after treatment (1, 3, and 6 months). Patients will undergo E-Nose testing in a presurgical or interventional radiology suite.
At baseline (before any treatment is administered) and at three points after treatment (1, 3, and 6 months). A breath sample from each patient will be captured in a cartridge, which will form the basis for the E-Nose analysis, to be performed by study investigators at UCB.
Research blood tests will be obtained at baseline, 1, 3, and 6 months post-treatment to determine whether serum biomarkers of MPM.
