About this trial
The goal of this study is to develop new techniques for minimal residual disease(MRD) monitoring and to confirm the efficacy and safety of MRD-guided postoperative management for early stage non-small cell lung cancer. The main questions this study aims to answer are:
* How to develop multi-omics-based high-sensitivity detection methods to accurately capture MRD and monitor postoperative recurrence in lung cancer? * Is adaptive treatment guided by ctDNA-MRD for lung cancer patients superior to traditional clinical management and effectively improves survival? * Do heterogeneous patient populations (grouped by stages, histopathological subtypes, driver mutations, and treatment histories) show differences in effects under ctDNA-MRD guided postoperative management strategies?
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Non-small cell lung cancer with stage IA-IIIA (8th edition TNM classification) planning to undergo curative surgery or to undergo neoadjuvant therapy
Solid nodules >1 cm or ground-glass nodules >1.5 cm on imaging
No history of malignancies other than non-small cell lung cancer in the past 5 years
Specimens are well preserved and imaging documents are accessible.
Disqualifiers
Age<18 years old
Non-small cell lung cancer with pathologic stage IIIB-IV (8th edition TNM classification)
Pathology results confirmed not to be non-small cell lung cancer
History of malignancies other than non-small cell lung cancer in the past 5 years
Trial design
Parallel
Treatments tested in this trial
Adaptive postoperative management based on minimal residual disease
Other interventionparticipants will not receive postoperative treatment if (neoadjuvant therapy efficacy reaches pCR and) MRD results keep negative.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Two-year recurrence-free survival rate
The difference in the proportion of patients with (suspected) relapse or metastasis between the intervention group and the control group within two years.
Secondary outcomes
Overall survival
The difference in overall survival between the intervention group and the control group.
Incremental cost effectiveness ratio
The cost of lung cancer-related treatment, including the cost of drugs, follow-up treatment, drug management costs (consultation fees, anti-tumor drug allocation fees, intravenous infusion fees, nursing fees, etc.), follow-up costs, laboratory tests and imaging examination costs, and the management costs of adverse reactions (1 cycle is counted as 1 time), and the per capita standard expenses calculated according to the Checkmate816 study protocol and China's expenses were used to calculate ICER.
Timely diagnosis rate by the novel MRD monitoring technique
The proportion of patients with recurrence signals detected by non-invasive methods prior to clinical confirmation of recurrence/metastasis, and quantify the mean lead time.
Sensitivity of the novel MRD monitoring approach
Evaluate the sensitivity of the novel MRD-based assay against previous ctDNA-MRD-only approaches. Use receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and limit of detection (LoD) analyses for cross-platform comparison.
