About this study

Circulating tumor DNA can be used to monitor the treatment effect and identify developing resistance mutations during ALK directed TKI treatment.

Read the detailed description

The purpose and objectives of the non-interventional study with primary data collection is

  • To determine if monitoring the amount of translocated DNA in the blood reflects alectinib treatment effect.
  • To assess the presence and type of resistance mutations using ctDNA at the time patients experience clinical progression on alectinib.
  • To investigate if the resistance mutations identified at clinical progression could have been identified in blood samples taken before clinically evident progression.
Being tested
Alectinib
Medical subject headings
Lung Neoplasms, Disease Resistance

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • AlectinibDrug

    Use of ctDNA to establish response and resistance to alectinib.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. PFS on alectinib

    time from initiation of treatment to progression

    Measured: 46 month

  2. mechanism of resistance

    ctDNA to establish resistance mechanisms to alectinib treatment

    Measured: 15.2 month

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lung Cancer and ALK Gene Mutation, run by Aarhus University Hospital at 1 site in Denmark.

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 2 inclusion and 0 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 2 Feb 2021. 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 Denmark. 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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PFS on alectinib (time frame: 46 month). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Feb 2021.
