Biological Factors Predicting Response to Chemotherapy in Advanced Non Small Cell Lung Cancer

The primary aim of the study is to identify a predictive molecular signature for response to chemotherapy, according to WHO criteria, in patients with non-small cell lung cancer by studying the transcriptome (miRNAs and mRNAs) and the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) by using high throughput techniques.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Histological diagnosis of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC)
  • Obtention of a biopsy of the tumour according to the procedure defined in the protocol
  • NSCLC of any stage to be treated by standard conventional first-line chemotherapy, as defined in the ELCWP guidelines (www.elcwp.org)
  • Presence of at least one assessable lesion
  • Availability for participating in the detailed follow-up of the protocol
  • Signed informed consent.
  • Age above 18 years

Exclusion criteria

  • Patient who was previously treated with chemotherapy for NSCLC or who has any contra-indication precluding the administration of conventional chemotherapy for NSCLC
  • NSCLC treated by exclusive surgery or radiotherapy
  • A history of prior malignant tumour, except non-melanoma skin cancer or in situ carcinoma of the cervix or of the bladder or cured malignant tumour (more than 5-year disease free interval)

Treatment and study plan

Chemotherapy

Drug

Standard cisplatin-based chemotherapy in agreement with the ELCWP guidelines (available on the website www.elcwp.org)

Primary outcomes

  1. Response rate

    Time frame: response will be assessed every 3 cycles of chemotherapy according to WHO criteria

Secondary outcomes

  1. Survival

    Time frame: Survival will be dated from the date of treatment

  2. Progression-free survival

    Time frame: Period between the date of treatment and the date of first progression or death

  3. Duration of response

    Time frame: period between the day of treatment and the date of first progression in patients with an objective response
