Dynamic ProGRP Changes During Ewing Sarcoma Treatment

Official title: Prospective Evaluation of Dynamic Serum ProGRP for Treatment Response Monitoring in Ewing Sarcoma

Run by Peking University People's Hospital · NCT07725783 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This study tests whether changes in serum ProGRP levels over time reflect how well newly diagnosed Ewing sarcoma responds to treatment.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Candidates are patients aged 10-60 with newly diagnosed, histologically confirmed Ewing sarcoma scheduled for first-line systemic therapy at Peking University People’s Hospital.

Probably not a fit

Patients whose tumor biology does not influence ProGRP levels or who have non-measurable disease may not benefit.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

In this single-center observational study, researchers will collect blood samples at four key time points and compare ProGRP changes with tumor size changes on RECIST imaging. Radiologists will assess imaging independently to see if early ProGRP shifts can predict radiographic response. The goal is to understand whether ProGRP could serve as a biomarker for treatment response, without affecting clinical decisions.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If ProGRP reliably tracks response, it could offer a less invasive tool to monitor how well treatment is working.

How similar studies have gone: Previous biomarker studies in Ewing sarcoma have explored serum markers, but the use of ProGRP as a treatment-response biomarker is novel in this setting.

* Histologically confirmed Ewing sarcoma.
* Newly diagnosed disease and scheduled to initiate first-line systemic therapy at Peking University People's Hospital.
* No prior systemic chemotherapy for Ewing sarcoma and no prior radiotherapy to the primary tumor.
* At least one evaluable lesion on baseline imaging; at least one measurable lesion according to RECIST version 1.1 is required for the primary outcome analysis.

* Estimated life expectancy greater than 3 months.
* Written informed consent provided by the participant or the participant's legally authorized representative.

Exclusion Criteria:

* History of another malignant tumor within the previous 3 years, except for an adequately treated malignancy with a negligible risk of recurrence, as determined by the investigator.
* New York Heart Association (NYHA) class III or IV heart failure.
* Uncontrolled concomitant illness, including uncontrolled diabetes mellitus or an active infection.
* Severe infection requiring intravenous antimicrobial treatment within 4 weeks before enrollment.
* Clinically significant bleeding or a clear bleeding tendency within 3 months before enrollment.
* Severe renal impairment, defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) below 30 mL/min/1.73 m².
* Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
* Any condition that, in the investigator's judgment, may compromise participant safety, interfere with study assessments, or prevent compliance with the protocol.
