NCT ID NCT07262671

First seen Jan 09, 2026 · Last updated Jun 23, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study is testing whether tiny particles called exosomes, found in blood and lung fluid, can predict how well treatment works in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Researchers will collect samples from 100 patients before and during standard therapy. The goal is to see if exosome RNA patterns can tell doctors early on whether a treatment is working.
