Early Stage Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
The first phase of this study was an open label, randomized pilot study. Enrollment for this phase is now complete. The second phase is a single arm phase 1 safety study. Patients planned to undergo precision hypofractionated radiation to all sites of oligoprogression will receive vancomycin for 1 week before RT and for 1 month after start of RT, and asked to provide stool and blood samples as outlined in the Safety Trial study table.
Interventions
125 mg, 4x daily for 5 weeks

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Randomized Pilot Inclusion * Patients planned to receive Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) to a biopsy-proven or clinically-suspected NSCLC * Age \>18 years' old * Patient capable of giving informed consent Randomized Pilot Exclusion * Use of antibiotics, antifungal, antivirals or antiparasitics during the 4 weeks prior to registration * Active infection with oral temperature \>100°F * Use of corticosteroids, methotrexate or immunosuppressive drugs during the 4 weeks prior to registration * Use of chemotherapy during the 4 weeks prior to radiotherapy or during radiotherapy. Chemotherapy cannot begin before the collection of the 30-day post treatment sample (S4). * Documented history of HIV, HBV or HCV * Active uncontrolled gastrointestinal disorders such as inflammatory bowel disease, moderate/severe irritable bowel syndrome, persistent, infectious gastroenteritis, colitis or gastritis, persistent or chronic diarrhea of unknown etiology, Clostridium Difficile infection (within 2 years of lung cancer diagnosis) or Helicobacter Pylori infection (untreated) * Major surgery of the GI tract, with the exception of cholecystectomy and appendectomy, in the past five years. Any major bowel resection at any time * Patients on anti-diarrheal medications * Patients on probiotics Safety Trial Inclusion * Patients planned to receive precision hypofractionated radiation (SBRT or an ablative dose of radiation is used if SBRT is not appropriate or if insurance does not approve - i.e. \> 30 Gy in 10 fraction equivalent) to all sites of oligoprogressive NSCLC who progressed after 1st line systemic therapy for metastatic disease which included immunotherapy or a tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) for NSCLC * The number of sites of progression are \< 5 sites. * Age \>18 years' old * Patient capable of giving informed consent Safety Trial Exclusion * Evidence of untreated CNS or leptomeningeal disease * Use of antibiotics, antifungal, antivirals or antiparasitics during the 4 weeks prior to registration * Active infection with oral temperature \>100°F * Use of oral corticosteroids, methotrexate or immunosuppressive drugs during the 4 weeks prior to registration * Use of chemotherapy during the 4 weeks prior to radiotherapy or during radiotherapy. Chemotherapy cannot begin before the collection of the 30-day post treatment sample (S3). * Documented history of HIV, HBV or HCV * Patients on daily anti-diarrheal medications * Use of probiotics during the 4 weeks prior to radiotherapy or during radiotherapy
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Randomized Pilot: Th1 immune response measured by cytokine expression (IFN gamma). | 2 years | The primary endpoint is IFN-gamma cytokine expression at Day 30 (+/- 2) collection compared to the pre-radiation level. It will be analyzed using generalized linear mixed models. |
| Randomized Pilot: the safety of the addition of vancomycin to Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy | 2 years | The primary safety endpoint is uncontrolled diarrhea, as defined by CTCAE v4.0 \> or = grade 3 (Increase of \>=7 stools per day over baseline; incontinence; hospitalization indicated; severe increase in ostomy output compared to baseline; limiting self-care ADL). This will be evaluated during treatment and at 1 month, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months. |
| Safety Trial: the safety of the addition of vancomycin to precision hypofractionated radiation | 3 years | Safety Trial: The primary safety endpoint is uncontrolled diarrhea, as defined by CTCAE v5.0 \> or = grade 3 Increase of \>=7 stools per day over baseline; hospitalization indicated; severe increase in ostomy output compared to baseline; limiting self care ADL). This will be evaluated weekly during vancomycin use and RT, at 1 month post-vancomycin, 3 months post-vancomycin, 6 months post-vancomycin and 12 months post-vancomycin. |
