Longitudinal Evaluation of Microbial and Host Signatures During Immunotherapy for Lung Cancer
- Conditions
- Lung Cancer
- Interventions
- Other: BronchoscopyOther: Research Procedures
- Registration Number
- NCT04063501
- Lead Sponsor
- NYU Langone Health
- Brief Summary
This study will prospectively collect airway, stool, and blood samples on 80 subjects with lung cancer undergoing immunotherapy. Investigators will evaluate airway/stool microbial signatures associated with local (lower airway) and systemic (blood) immune tone.They will then study whether microbiota and/or host signatures predict subjects' response by longitudinal assessment of the progression free survival. They will also repeat sampling after 8 weeks of immunotherapy to expand our mechanistic understanding of the response to treatment.

- Target Recruitment
- 30
- Adult patients with a diagnosis of advanced stage unresectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and indication for PD-1 blockade treatment (either as monotherapy or combined with chemotherapy)
- Antibiotic, steroid, or chemotherapy received within the prior month since these are possible confounders that may impact the microbiome and the host immunity.
- Brain metastasis (as evaluated by MRI obtained as part of standard of care staging evaluation)
- FEV1<50% predicted
