Using E-Nose Technology to Track Treatment Response in People With Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Electronic Nose (E-nose) Technology to Assess Pathologic Response and Post- Treatment Progression for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer: a Phase II Study


Sponsor

Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

Enrollment

60 participants

Start Date

Oct 10, 2025

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Summary

The researchers are doing this study to test the ability of a new technology called breathprinting, or electronic nose (E-Nose), to measure changes in certain chemicals in the breath before and after standard neoadjuvant therapy in people with NSCLC.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is testing whether an "electronic nose" — a device that analyzes the chemical composition of exhaled breath — can track how well treatment is working in people with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). By detecting changes in breath patterns, the device may offer a painless, non-invasive way to monitor cancer treatment responses. **You may be eligible if...** - You are 18 or older - You have untreated early-stage (Stage I) non-small cell lung cancer that can be treated with surgery - OR you have untreated Stage II to IIIB NSCLC planned for chemotherapy before surgery (neoadjuvant treatment) - You are well enough to undergo treatment (ECOG performance status 0 to 2) **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have already started treatment for your lung cancer - Your cancer is at a stage not eligible for surgery - Your general health is too poor to participate Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTBreath sample collection

Cohort 1: patients undergoing neoadjuvant treatment (stages II to IIIB) will undergo breath sampling (1) at baseline before any treatment, (2) 2 weeks after neoadjuvant therapy, (3) 2 weeks after surgery, (4) 6 months after surgery, and (5) every 6 months for the first 2 years. Cohort 2: patients who are planned to undergo upfront surgery will undergo breath sampling (1) at baseline before upfront surgery, (2) 2 weeks after surgery, (3) 6 months after surgery, and (4) every 6 months for the first 2 years.

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTResearch blood collection

Cohort 1: Blood sample collections will coincide with the breath collection schedule.
