Genotyping of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Non-small Cell Lung Cancer, Gene Abnormality
About this trial
This is an observational trial for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Patients who have participated or will be participating a lung cancer clinical trial that use EGFR-TKI or chemotherapy as first line or second line treatment.
- Pathologic or cytological confirmation of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with available tissue
- Patients must understand and provide written informed consent prior to initiation of any study-specific procedures
- Have a life expectancy 3 months.
- Have stage IV NSCLC (AJCC, 7th Edition)
No or one prior systemic therapy for advanced or metastatic NSCLC 6.1.Adjuvant chemotherapy: The adjuvant chemotherapy (e.g. vinorelbine / cisplatin) should be counted as one prior systemic therapy if the interval between the completion of adjuvant chemotherapy and the documentation of recurrence within 12 months.
6.2.Maintenance therapy: The maintenance therapy (e.g. pemetrexed) following the first-line systemic chemotherapy which achieved complete response, partial response, or stable disease should not be counted as one prior systemic therapy if the maintenance drug was used in first-line combination therapy
- ≥20 years
- ECOG performance status 0 - 2
- If there is no available archived tissue, the subject must consent to undergo a biopsy or surgical procedure to obtain tissue within 1 month prior to study entry, which may or may not be part of the patient's routine care for their malignancy.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Prior history of another malignancy (other than cured basal cell carcinoma of the skin or cured in-situ carcinoma of the cervix) within 5 years of study entry.
- Known HIV infection.
- If subject has no archival tissue and refuse to do any biopsy or surgery for molecular testing
