About this study

Official title: Application of Circulating Tumor (ctDNA) in the Evaluation of Curative Effect and Prognosis of Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) Patients

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the application value of circulating tumor DNA(ctDNA) with efficacy evaluation and prognostic assessment in patients with unresectable SCLC, who were receiving radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment.

Read the detailed description
  1. According to each point in time of ctDNA, to analyze the dynamic changes of tumor burden and clonal subtypes which to evaluate the application value of ctDNA in curative efficacy evaluation.
  2. Compare the two time points before and after radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatment of the cell free DNA (cfDNA) concentration and tumor burden, analysis the correlation between the changes and prognosis.

What is being measured

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

  1. ctDNA mutation profile at baseline

    ctDNA mutation will be detected, PyClone based clonal analysis will be performed to analyze the clonal dominance

    Measured: before treatment ctDNA mutation analysis and clonal analysis (each cycle is 3 weeks)

  2. the evolution of ctDNA mutation profile during treatment

    ctDNA mutation will be detected, PyClone based clonal analysis will be performed to analyze the clonal dominance

    Measured: After the first cycle of first line treatment upon physicians' request, ctDNA mutation analysis and clonal analysis (each cycle is 3 weeks)

  3. the evolution of ctDNA mutation profile during treatment

    ctDNA mutation will be detected, PyClone based clonal analysis will be performed to analyze the clonal dominance

    Measured: After finished the first line treatment, ctDNA mutation analysis and clonal analysis (each cycle is 3 weeks)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. PFS

    Progression free of survival

    Measured: From the first line treatment to the time of disease progression (through study completion, an average of 5 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Small Cell Lung Cancer Extensive Stage, run by Xiangya Hospital of Central South University.

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 5 inclusion and 3 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Deng (13574888840, yogurt1015@csu.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ctDNA mutation profile at baseline (time frame: before treatment ctDNA mutation analysis and clonal analysis (each cycle is 3 weeks)). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05066945, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 4 Oct 2021.
