简要总结
This pragmatic study looks to quantify the testing timeline, operational barriers, and outcomes of biomarker-guided therapy in a large, community-based, and largely unselected patient population with early stage and advanced stage, treatment-naive non-small cell lung cancer, whether squamous or non-squamous.
详细描述
Lung cancer remains the most lethal malignancy in men and women in the U.S. Providing high quality management of these patients in the community setting as compared to hospital or academic centers offers the opportunity to reduce cost without sacrificing clinical outcome and simultaneously improving patient convenience and value. Many patients diagnosed with late-stage cancers can benefit from advanced biomarker testing, yet not all eligible patients receive this type of diagnostic testing today.
Within advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (aNSCLC), there are many specific somatic mutations observed in select patient populations that have targeted highly effective and less toxic therapies. National guidelines have advocated for broad tumor molecular profiling as a part of the standard diagnostic evaluation for aNSCLC, with the goal of identifying driver mutations for which effective therapies or clinical trials are available.
Furthermore, there is emerging evidence that molecular testing can impact treatment choices in earlier stages of lung cancer. However, adherence to genomic testing guidelines presents unique challenges to community oncologists. While most oncology clinical research has been conducted at well-established academic medical centers, over 85% of cancer patients are diagnosed and treated at local, community-based clinical practices. Barriers exist in the ability to order these tests efficiently, in a timely manner, and reimbursed accordingly. Furthermore, patient care can vary drastically based on community-associated disparities.
This pragmatic clinical trial will generate Real World Evidence (RWE) to validate efficacy of first treatment regimen in newly diagnosed patients with non-small cell lung cancer. The MYLUNG Program integrates three separate protocols: Protocol #1 will interrogate historical data from a large number of practices seeing lung cancer patients to evaluate biomarker testing, decision making patterns, the patient journey, and the tissue journey; Protocol #2 (current trial) will prospectively evaluate the patient journey in a limited number of index practices focused on testing; integration of testing results; and treatments. Interventional strategies to optimize these objectives will be developed and integrated into Protocol #3, which will evaluate the impact of these strategies on the patient journey as it relates to shared decision making.

结局指标
主要结局
Proportion of Patients Who Do and Do Not Receive Biomarker Test Results Prior to Systemic Therapy or Death
时间窗: 5 years from date of enrollment into study
i. Comprehensive testing is defined as both PD-L1 testing to guide use of immunotherapies \& testing for all genomic alterations for which we have FDA-approved therapies incl EGFR, ALK, ROS1, BRAF, NTRK, RET, KRAS \& MET ii. Document whether patient receives single gene testing for actionable mutations compared to those who receive comprehensive testing. For patients who start systemic therapy prior to or without biomarker results, we will catalog reasons for not conducting testing incl: 1. Clinical deterioration, clinical crisis 2. Insufficient tissue 3. Barriers to test ordering 1. Tissue: obtaining sample, tissue retrieval 2. Assay failure for 1 or more biomarkers: Quantity Not Sufficient (QNS), QA fail, test failure 3. Patient/provider attitudes \& perceptions 4. Provider knowledge about testing options 5. Patient knowledge about biomarker testing 6. Payor Coverage: prior authorization denial, payor refusal 7. Financial barriers: uncovered costs, reimbursement
次要结局
- Time span between first systemic therapy as compared to date of initial presentation, date of diagnostic biopsy, date of first visit to a medical oncologist, and date of biomarker test order(s) and result(s).(5 years from date of enrollment into study)
- Proportion of patients placed on biomarker-directed first treatment regimen vs those who were not(5 years from date of enrollment into study)
- Determine the variance in biomarker test order practice patterns by community cancer clinic settings as measured by percentage of comprehensive testing ordered, type of test ordered, and resulting treatment assigned to the patient.(5 years from date of enrollment into study)
