About this study

This is an exploratory, single-center, being conducted at Beijing Haidian Hospital in order to detect the relationship between microbiome of upper gastrointestinal and pathogenesis of multiple primary lung cancer.

Read the detailed description

This study intends to analyze the bacterial community structure of respiratory tract, upper digestive tract, lesion and adjacent to cancer in patients with multiple primary lung cancer, and to explore the association between upper digestive tract bacterial community and lung microecology, in order to find the characteristics of upper digestive tract bacterial strains involved in regulating lung cancer microenvironment, and explore the possible interaction mechanism between upper digestive tract bacterial community and lung cancer gene mutation.

What participants receive

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

  • Microbiome Profiling and Symptom AssessmentDiagnostic test

    GERD symptom assessment: Standardized GERD-Q questionnaire to evaluate reflux symptoms (heartburn, acid regurgitation) and high-risk behaviors.

    Microbiome analysis: 16S rDNA sequencing of upper gastrointestinal and intratumoral microbiota.

Study groups in NCT06973499
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Study arm1. Microbial samples of oral cavity, upper and lower respiratory tract, upper digestive tract, lung lavage fluid, malignant pulmonary nodules and their adjacent sites, pathological samples and blood samples of patients with multiple primary lung cancer should be collected. 2. Blood samples were tested for T and B lymphocyte subsets, NK cell percentage and immune factors. Metagenomic sequencing (16S rDNA sequencing at malignant pulmonary nodules) was performed on the bacterial community samples from different parts, and exome and transcriptome sequencing were performed on the lesion and its adjacent tissues to obtain the genome mutation and transcriptome information of the corresponding samples. 3. In view of the above key characteristics, differentially expressed genes, pathway analysis and functional module construction were carried out to screen biologically important modules and genes related to lung cancer mutation and bacterial community microenvironment.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: Microbiome Profiling and Symptom Assessment

What is being measured

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

  1. Microbial homology between upper gastrointestinal (UGI) microbiota and intratumoral microbiota

    Based on 16S rDNA sequencing data, calculate the Bray-Curtis similarity index between the intratumoral microbiota and the patient's own upper gastrointestinal (UGI) microbiota. Use SourceTracker2 to quantify the contribution of UGI microbiota to the intratumoral microbiota. Apply PERMANOVA analysis to compare the differences in microbiota similarity between the MPLC and SPLC groups.

    Measured: Sequencing and analysis will be completed within 6 months after sample collection.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Multiple Primary Lung Cancer and Microbial Colonization, run by Beijing Haidian Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2025. 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 China. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Microbial homology between upper gastrointestinal (UGI) microbiota and intratumoral microbiota (time frame: Sequencing and analysis will be completed within 6 months after sample collection.). 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 NCT06973499, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 15 May 2025.
