NCT ID NCT01647867

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study examined pieces of the Met receptor protein in tumor and healthy tissue from 56 people with non-small cell lung cancer. Researchers used blood and tissue samples taken during surgery or biopsy to see which Met fragments are present and whether they are active. The goal was to better understand how Met might be involved in lung cancer, not to test a new treatment.

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 research could help identify new markers or targets for future lung cancer treatments.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study with no direct treatment, so it will not immediately benefit patients. Results may not lead to new therapies.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

56 people

The number who actually took part.

Started

Aug 2012

Finished

Jul 2016

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients with non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) * Patients candidate for bronchial biopsies at the Oscar Lambret Center (metastatic stage) or candidate for thoracic surgery at University Hospital of Lille (localized stage) * Treatment naive patient for metastatic NSCLC * Patients with or without neoadjuvant therapy for localized NSCLC * Male or female patients aged ≥ 18 years * Patient registered with the social security system * Having signed a written Informed Consent Exclusion Criteria: * Malignant tumors which are not carcinoma * Small-cell malignant tumors * Secondary bronchial lesions * Revision surgery * Pregnant or breastfeeding women * Patient under guardianship or tutorship * Previous cancer
