Exploring sugar chains in lung cancer immunotherapy response
Official title: Sugar Chain Heterogeneity in Immunotherapy Response and Efficacy Prediction of Lung Cancer
Run by Shanghai Chest Hospital · NCT06730503 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing if changes in sugar chains in the blood can help predict how well people with non-small cell lung cancer respond to immunotherapy treatments.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer who are receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment and can provide blood samples.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with early-stage lung cancer or those not receiving immunotherapy may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This research investigates the role of glycoprotein sugar chain heterogeneity in predicting the response to immunotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It focuses on understanding both primary resistance, where patients do not respond to treatment, and acquired resistance, where patients initially respond but later relapse. The study involves collecting blood samples from patients undergoing immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment to analyze the changes in glycosylation patterns associated with these resistance mechanisms. By identifying disease-specific biomarkers, the research aims to improve treatment strategies for NSCLC patients.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to better prediction of immunotherapy responses in lung cancer patients, potentially improving treatment outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: While the exploration of glycoprotein markers in cancer treatment is a growing field, this specific approach to understanding immunotherapy resistance in NSCLC is relatively novel.
