Brief summary

Conduct a prospective study in multicenter to confirm the value of circulating tumor DNA in longitudinal monitoring of stage III-IV lung cancer patients.

Detailed description

The study consists of two phases, the first stage is the exploratory stage of blood collection point which is the appropriate effective time after chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy. The second phase, which is the expansion of the first phase, is to determine the precise leading time of ctDNA relative to tumor biomarkers or image evaluation in determining the efficacy of advanced NSCLC cancer therapy. Both stages were divided into three subgroups: the chemotherapy group, the radiotherapy group, and the targeted therapy group.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
ctDNA effective time6 monthsTo explore the appropriate chemo/ radio/ target effective time (CET/RET/TET) through measurement and monitoring of ctDNA after anti-cancer therapies in advanced NSCLC.
ctDNA leading time1 yearTo investigate the precise leading time for ctDNA compared to conventional biomarker or image evaluation in detecting disease recurrence after radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or targeted therapy respectively.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Assess the accuracy of ctDNA1 yearTo assess the accuracy of ctDNA when imaging undetectable or difficult to assess
Compared to conventional image1 yearCompared to conventional image evaluation, to determine the consistency of ctDNA in treatment response of measurable lesion after radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or targeted therapy respectively
Compared to traditional tumor markers6 monthsTo explore the consistency for ctDNA in determining the efficacy of advanced NSCLC compared to tumor markers after radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or targeted therapy respectively
