A Study of Patients Undergoing Neoadjuvant Therapy for Resectable Non-small Cell Lung Cancer to Evaluate Perioperative Circulating Tumor DNA as a Prognostic Biomarker

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine the validity of employing quantitative ctDNA as a surrogate marker for pathologic treatment response in patients receiving neoadjuvant therapy for Stage IIA-IIIB NSCLC undergoing curative-intent resection. We will assess the relationship between major pathologic response (≤10% viable tumor remaining) and percent change in levels of ctDNA concentration before and after neoadjuvant therapy.
