TAP-NSCLC: Prospective Evaluation of Single Cell Mutations in a Panel of Known Oncogenes in NSCLC Surgical Specimens
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the feasibility of a single cell mutation research method in a panel of known oncogenes, using the Tapestri method. Tissue samples will be obtained after surgical treatment in patients with I-II-III stage NSCLC.

Detailed Description
NSCLC is a particularly heterogeneous disease with different genetic alterations in oncogenes 'drivers', responsible for the development and progression of the disease. In most cases all these anomalies represent clonal mutations in all neoplastic cells. However, several sub-clonal genetic alterations were identified in some multi-regional sequencing studies, demonstrating an intra-tumor heterogeneity. Tracing the clonal architecture of the disease and also the temporal order of the various mutations appearance, woulb bring two benefits:
-
prioritize the molecular targets
-
identify evolutionary trajectories associated with the outcome of therapies and survival, useful to stratify patients considering the likelihood and the duration of response
Inclusion criteria are:
-
age over 18 years old.
-
histological diagnosis of NSCLC technically operable following multidisciplinary discussion
-
informed consent freely granted and obtained before the start of the study
For the bioinformatic data analyses will be used the Tapestri MissionBio pipeline.
Given the limited number of patients that can be included in the study (10), no statistical analyzes will be performed. Results will be presented thorugh narrative reports for each patients.
