Sponsor

Centre Leon Berard

Enrollment

900 participants

Start Date

Jul 1, 2015

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this project is to characterize the genetic profile of patients with advanced stage IIIB/IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using liquid biopsies


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is looking at whether a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy) can detect cancer DNA in the bloodstream of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer — potentially offering a less invasive alternative to traditional tissue biopsies. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been diagnosed with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (stage IIIB or IV) confirmed by biopsy - You are 18 years of age or older - You are covered by health insurance (in France) - You are willing to sign a consent form - For some groups: your cancer has specific genetic mutations (such as EGFR, BRAF, ALK, or others) or you are starting immunotherapy **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have already started cancer treatment before your blood (liquid biopsy) sample is taken - You have not yet had a tissue biopsy done Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
