NCT Number: NCT06979661
Primary Objective:
Evaluate the role of ctDNA positivity in decision making for postoperative therapy for non-small cell lung cancer. The plan for postoperative therapy will be declared after pathology report review and before the ctDNA result. We will assess if ctDNA result changed the planned therapy.
Secondary Objectives:
Evaluate personalized postoperative Chemo/ICPI/Targeted Therapies/Radiation Therapy in clearing ctDNA Evaluate the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) of stage II/III lung cancer patients with postoperative ctDNA positive status
Exploratory Objective:
Evaluate radiomics features based on serial CT thoracic CT scans to determine if radiomic features can be associated with ctDNA positivity/negativity.

New Brunswick, New Jersey, 08901, United States
This is a pilot, single-arm interventional study evaluating the use of the Haystack™ circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) assay to guide postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) and systemic therapy decisions for patients with Stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have undergone surgical resection. The study aims to assess whether ctDNA monitoring can effectively detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and improve post-surgical treatment strategies.
Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Exclusion criteria
A personalized, tumor-informed circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) test that analyzes blood samples to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and guide postoperative treatment decisions for patients with Stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) following surgical resection. The test results will help determine whether patients should receive postoperative radiation therapy (PORT) and/or systemic therapy adjustments.
Time frame: Baseline, 2-4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-surgery
This outcome will assess the presence or absence of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in blood samples collected at multiple time points following surgical resection of Stage II-III non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The Haystack™ ctDNA assay will be used to detect minimal residual disease (MRD), and results will be evaluated for their ability to predict recurrence and guide postoperative radiation and systemic therapy decisions.
Time frame: Up to 3 years post-surgery
This outcome measures the time from surgery to disease progression or recurrence, as determined by imaging, clinical assessment, or rising ctDNA levels detected via the Haystack™ ctDNA assay.
Time frame: Up to 5 years post-surgery
The time from surgery to death from any cause. This will assess whether ctDNA-guided treatment impacts long-term survival outcomes in patients with Stage II-III NSCLC.
Time frame: Baseline, 2-4 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-surgery
Measures the change in ctDNA levels detected in serial blood draws, evaluating whether fluctuations correlate with treatment response, recurrence risk, or progression.
