Multi-omics blood and CT monitoring for early detection of lung cancer recurrence after neoadjuvant therapy and surgery

Official title: To Conduct Multi-omics Integrated Studies in Peripheral Blood, Such as Fragment Omics, Metabolomics and Epigenetics, and Establish Non-invasive Dynamic Follow-up Monitoring Programs During Perioperative and Postoperative Periods (Observational Study)

Run by Peking University People's Hospital · NCT07291921 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This project tests whether combining blood-based multi-omics (metabolomics and cfDNA), CT radiomics, and AI can noninvasively detect early recurrence after surgery in NSCLC patients treated with neoadjuvant immunotherapy.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults (18–<85 years) with pathologic stage IB–IIIA NSCLC who had radical resection after standard neoadjuvant immunotherapy plus platinum-based chemotherapy and can provide tumor tissue and serial blood samples.

Probably not a fit

Patients with non-NSCLC histology, stage IIIB–IV disease, R2 (non-radical) resection, pure ground-glass nodules, recent other malignancies, or inadequate/low-quality tissue or blood samples are unlikely to benefit.

What this trial studies

This prospective observational project integrates plasma metabolomics, low-pass whole-genome and methylation cfDNA profiling, and CT-based radiomics to build a noninvasive recurrence prediction model for resected NSCLC. The protocol will retrospectively analyze 200 patients and prospectively enroll 100 additional patients who underwent radical resection after neoadjuvant immunotherapy plus platinum chemotherapy, with peripheral blood collected at multiple perioperative and postoperative timepoints. Machine-learning methods (unsupervised clustering, random forest, Wilcoxon tests) and a 3D ResNet radiomic pipeline will generate recurrence-associated features, which will be combined using the DeepProg deep-learning framework alongside relapse-free survival outcomes. The final integrated model aims to stratify postoperative recurrence risk and support dynamic, noninvasive follow-up monitoring.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the approach could allow earlier, noninvasive detection of recurrence to personalize surveillance and adjuvant treatment decisions.

How similar studies have gone: Previous work using cfDNA-based MRD testing and radiomic signatures has shown promising predictive ability for recurrence, but fully integrated multi-omics AI models combining metabolomics, methylation, low-pass WGS, and radiomics remain largely exploratory.
