600 cancer patients to help unlock secrets of immunotherapy success
NCT ID NCT07427186
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 20, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study will follow 600 people with early-stage solid cancers (like lung, head and neck, melanoma, or bladder cancer) who are receiving immunotherapy before surgery. Researchers will collect blood and tumor samples at several time points to see how the immune system responds. The goal is to find biological markers that show whether the treatment is working. Participants will be monitored for up to 5 years.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors predict which early-stage cancer patients will benefit most from immunotherapy before surgery.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to immediate changes in care, and results might not apply to all cancer types.

* Inclusion Criteria: 1. Age ≥18 years at the time of study entry. 2. Patient with histologically documented early stage solid malignant tumor (NSCLC, head and neck cancer, melanoma (except uveal melanoma), bladder cancer or any other early stage solid tumor when I-O agent is expected to be efficient in a neo-adjuvant setting (whether in standard of care or within a clinical trial). 3. Patient for whom a neo-adjuvant treatment with immune checkpoint blockade including, but not limited to, anti-PD-1, anti-PD-L1 and anti-CTLA-4 mAb alone or in combination with chemotherapy or other therapies has been decided. 4. Availability of an archived tumor specimen (block FFPE) sampled prior to the start of the treatment. 5. Treatment with ICB not yet started. 6. ECOG Performance status 0-2. 7. Patient able to participate and willing to give informed consent prior to performance of any study-related procedures. 8. Patient affiliated to a Social Health Insurance in France. * Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patient pregnant, or breast-feeding. 2. Uveal melanoma 3. Any condition contraindicated with tumor /blood sampling procedures required by the protocol. 4. Known history of positive test for hepatitis B virus or hepatitis C virus or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). 5. Any current severe or uncontrolled disease, including, but not limited to ongoing or active infection and auto immune disorders. 6. Any psychological, familial, geographic or social situation, according to the judgment of investigator, potentially preventing the provision of informed consent or compliance to study procedure. 7.
