About this study

This study aimed to assess the value of dynamic ctDNA monitoring in guiding the development of personalized neoadjuvant treatment strategies for EGFR-mutated NSCLC patients.

Read the detailed description

This study aimed to prospectively enroll approximately 300 resectable stage II-IIIB (T1-4N0-2M0, excluding T4 with invasion of vital structures and bulky or infiltrative N2) NSCLC patients with histologically confirmed EGFR 19del or L858R mutations. Peripheral blood samples will be collected at baseline before neoadjuvant 3rd-generationEGFR TKI therapy, and ctDNA levels will be quantitatively assessed. For patients with positive baseline ctDNA, peripheral blood will be collected again after 3 weeks of neoadjuvant TKI therapy to assess if ctDNA has turned negative, and HRCT will be performed to evaluate the treatment efficiency simultaneously.

In patients with positive baseline ctDNA, for ctDNA-negative patients after 3 weeks of neoadjuvant TKI treatment, radical resection surgery will be performed after continuing TKI treatment for 9-12 weeks (Group A). For ctDNA-positive patients after 3 weeks of neoadjuvant TKI treatment, in combination with imaging changes in the lesions, a multidisciplinary team (MDT) evaluation will be conducted. After discussion between the attending physicians and the patient, the subsequent treatment will either continue TKI treatment for 9-12 weeks (Group B), undergo 3 cycles of TKI plus chemotherapy (Group C), or undergo sequential neoadjuvant immunotherapy plus chemotherapy for 3 cycles (Group D) before radical resection surgery.The study intends to evaluate the correlation between the rate of major pathological response (MPR) and ctDNA levels at 3 weeks after TKI treatment, to compare the difference in pathological response between ctDNA-negative and ctDNA-positive groups after 3 weeks of neoadjuvant TKI treatment and to evaluate the guiding value of dynamic ctDNA monitoring during neoadjuvant therapy for optimizing subsequent treatments.

What participants receive

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

  • ctDNA monitoringOther

    Patients will receive ctDNA monitoring before and after 3 weeks of neoadjuvant 3rd TKI treatment and optimize the neoadjuvant treatment plan based on this.

What is being measured

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

  1. the rate of major pathological response (MPR)

    the proportion of patients who achieve MRP among those receiving pneumonectomy

    Measured: up to 17 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. the rate of pathological complete response (pCR)

    the proportion of patients who achieve pCR among those receiving pneumonectomy

    Measured: up to 17 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ctDNA monitoring in people with EGF-R Positive Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer, run by Zhejiang 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 11 inclusion and 10 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 24 Apr 2024. 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 Xuqi Sun, MD (+86-18767186629, sunxq@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the rate of major pathological response (MPR) (time frame: up to 17 weeks). 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 24 Apr 2024.
