Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study will prospectively collect airway, stool, and blood samples on 80 subjects with lung cancer undergoing immunotherapy. Investigators will evaluate airway/stool microbial signatures associated with local (lower airway) and systemic (blood) immune tone.They will then study whether microbiota and/or host signatures predict subjects' response by longitudinal assessment of the progression free survival. They will also repeat sampling after 8 weeks of immunotherapy to expand our mechanistic understanding of the response to treatment.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Advanced stage unresectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

Adult patients with a diagnosis of advanced stage unresectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and indication for PD-1 blockade treatment (either as monotherapy or combined with chemotherapy)

Other: Bronchoscopy
The patient will then return within a week for a research bronchoscopy to sample the upper and lower airways

Other: Research Procedures
electrocardiogram, blood work (CBC, chemistry, coagulation profile and liver function tests, pregnancy test if applicable), X-ray and pulmonary function (spirometry) testing, and provide the patient with a stool collection kit.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Progression-free survival (PFS) [3 Years]

    over ≥ 1-year follow-up

  2. Microbiota signatures in lower and upper airways [3 Years]

  3. Microbiota signatures in stool [3 Years]

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
18 Years to 100 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:
All
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
  • Adult patients with a diagnosis of advanced stage unresectable Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer and indication for PD-1 blockade treatment (either as monotherapy or combined with chemotherapy)
Exclusion Criteria:
  • Antibiotic, steroid, or chemotherapy received within the prior month since these are possible confounders that may impact the microbiome and the host immunity.

  • Brain metastasis (as evaluated by MRI obtained as part of standard of care staging evaluation)

  • FEV1<50% predicted

  • Cardiovascular disease (defined as abnormal EKG, known or suspected coronary artery disease or congestive heart failure)

  • Renal disease

  • Coagulopathy

  • Liver disease
