Collecting tumor tissue from lung cancer patients during immunotherapy progression

Tumor Rebiopsy During Progression Under Immunotherapy for Patients With Lung Cancer

Not applicable Interventional Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris · NCT04300062

What this trial studies

This study aims to collect tumor tissue samples from patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or small cell lung cancer (SCLC) who have experienced disease progression while undergoing treatment with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). The samples will be stored in a biological resources center at Ambroise Paré hospital for future analysis of the molecular mechanisms involved in cancer progression under ICI treatment. The research will be conducted by the EA 4340 unit, focusing on biomarkers and clinical trials in cancerology and onco-hematology at the University of Paris-Saclay.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older diagnosed with NSCLC or SCLC who have progressed on ICI therapy.

Not a fit: Patients who are unable to provide informed consent or have technical difficulties in undergoing a rebiopsy may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance understanding of lung cancer progression under immunotherapy, potentially leading to improved treatment strategies.

How similar studies have performed: While the specific approach of rebiopsy during immunotherapy progression is relatively novel, similar studies have shown promise in understanding cancer biology and treatment responses.
