About this study

Official title: Analysis of Mechanism of Resistance to Chemotherapy by Sequencing of Plasma DNA

The presence of genetic alterations in the tyrosine kinase domain of the oncogene (eg. EGFR and ALK) is associated with the clinical response to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with non-small cell lung cancers. Therefore, the detection of altered genetic alterations is useful for predicting the treatment response for TKIs in non-small cell lung cancer patients. However, good quality tumor tissues are available only in <50% of patients with inoperable lung cancer for mutation analysis. In this study, the investigators will detect and quantify the genetic alterations in plasma. the investigators will investigate if the serial measurement of cancer-derived genetic alterations in plasma can provide a means for monitoring disease progression, as well as treatment response. In addition the investigators will analysis the resistant mechanism of TKIs and chemotherapy with plasma tumor DNA.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quantifying circulating tumor DNA in serially collected plasma specimens

    To evaluate the change of quantity of circulating tumor DNA with digital PCR

    Measured: 60 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Non Small Cell Lung Cancer Patients, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Hyun Chang, Dr. (82-31-787-7039, Hchang@snubh.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Detection of genetic alterations (including EGFR and ALK) in plasma samples (time frame: 60 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Dec 2013.
