Official study title

Bronchoscopic Cryo-Immunotherapy of Lung Cancer

Study summary

This is a safety and feasibility study of bronchoscopic cryo-immunotherapy (BCI) of peripheral lung tumors in advanced non-small cell lung cancer for the intention of inducing anti-tumor immune responses. The sample size for this study will be 15 patients. Pre- and post- BCI peripheral blood samples will be analyzed to assess for anti-tumor immune responses. Post-BCI peripheral blood will be collected 7 and 14 days after the procedure.

Public criteria

Who may be able to participate

The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.

Requirements people may need to meetInclusion criteria
  • Peripheral lung tumor on pre-procedure chest CT scan, which is known or suspected to be advanced, inoperable non-small cell lung cancer (stages IIIA/B/C and IVA/B) based on the 8th edition TNM staging guidelines
  • Pre-procedure chest CT scan with the presence of a bronchus or airway path leading directly to the peripheral lung tumor (also known as a "bronchus sign")
  • Undergoing bronchoscopy for diagnostic and/or palliative purpose unrelated to this study.
  • Documentation of non-small cell lung cancer either prior to procedure or via on-site pathology review during bronchoscopy (prior to proceeding with planned BCI)
  • Ability to provide informed consent
  • Concomitant chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and/or radiation therapy are allowed
  • ECOG performance status less than or equal to 2
Reasons someone may not be able to joinExclusion criteria
  • Pregnancy
  • Currently on a platelet inhibitor (such as Clopidogrel) other than aspirin or NSAIDS, or on a blood thinner (such as heparin, enoxaparin, or a novel oral anticoagulant), which is unable to be held for planned bronchoscopy
  • INR \>= 1.5 (post correction)
  • Platelets =\< 100,000 (post correction)
  • Bleeding diathesis
  • Contraindication to bronchoscopy
  • Absence of tissue diagnosis of non-small cell lung cancer either prior to procedure or during on-site pathology review at time of bronchoscopy.

Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
