MRD Monitoring in Lung Cancer After Resection

Recruiting
Conditions
Lung Cancer
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: MRD detection
Registration Number
NCT04976296
Lead Sponsor
Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital
Brief Summary

The conception of molecular residual disease (MRD) extending from hematologic tumor to solid tumors. Evidences supporting MRD evaluation for lung cancer by liquid biopsy has gradually accumulated, especially circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA). In this observational study, the investigators prospectively enroll stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who underwent complete resection. Preoperative blood sample, tumor tissue and dynamic postoperative blood samples are collected continuously for MRD detection. This study aim to explore the prognostic value of MRD for stage I-IIIA NSCLC patients after complete resection.

Detailed Description

There will be a rapid surge in research about molecular residual disease (MRD) for solid cancer in the near future. However, MRD differed significantly between tumor types and between contexts; there continues to be a considerable lack of awareness and knowledge about using MRD in lung cancer. Hence, this study aims to investigate the value of MRD in NSCLC patients who underwent complete resection. Preoperative blood sample (20ml), tumor tissue and dynamic postoperative blood samples (20ml) are collected continuously for MRD detection. The follow-up was performed once every 3 to 6 months. The primary objective of this study is to assess the prognostic value of MRD for stage I-IIIA NSCLC patients after complete resection.
