Prospective Collection of Tumor Biopsy and Plasma Samples From Cancer Patients Treated With Molecular Targeted Therapies or Immunotherapy

Not Applicable
Active, not recruiting
Conditions
Cancer
Interventions
Drug: Immunotherapeutic Agent
Drug: Molecular Target
Registration Number
NCT03835520
Lead Sponsor
Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to collect blood samples, as well as tumor tissue for genetic analysis. The collection of samples will allow the creation of a plasma bank. Targeted individuals are cancer patients of all types, treated with immunotherapy or targeted therapy.

Immunotherapy or targeted agents will be administered according to standard of care and reimbursement modalities in Belgium. Targeted agents will be administered according to manufacturer's instructions.

With the aim to identify predictive markers of response to treatment or possible resistance mechanism, the plasma samples and the tumor samples will be used for genetic analysis, for example but not limited to, whole exome sequencing. This may lead to the discovery of some germinal mutations implicated in other diseases than cancer.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
efficacy of treatment against CancerFrom date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 120 months

Efficacy will be determined in terms of overall responses according to standard practice by the local investigator. Disease and response assessments are defined by the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Overall survival (OS)From date of randomization until the date of first documented progression assessed up to 120 months

Overall survival is defined as the time from the date of inclusion to the date of death from any cause or to the date of last follow-up (in exceptional cases where it is impossible to document the date of death). Every effort should be made to document the cause of death.

Progression free survivalFrom date of randomization until the date of first documented progression , assessed up to 120 months

Progression free survival (PFS) will be measured from the date of inclusion to the date of progression or death, whatever the cause.

Progression will be defined according to the RECIST criteria.

Objective tumor responseFrom date of randomization until the date of first documented progression or date of death from any cause, whichever came first, assessed up to 120 months

Objective tumor response will be measured according to the RECIST 1.1 criteria.
