Brief Summary:
This is an observational study, aiming to investigate whether the ctDNA dynamics analyzed by the K-TrackTM assay could predict early response to Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
1. Determine relationship between ctDNA dynamics and clinical response to TKI,
* No response/progressive disease = ctDNA levels increase from baseline
* Partial response/stable disease = ctDNA levels decrease from baseline
* Complete response = ctDNA clearance.
2. Compare and combine ctDNA dynamics and RECIST1.1 to predict clinical response.
3. Determine relationship between ctDNA dynamics and progression free survival, overall survival.
Detailed Description:
This study is recruiting female and male patients, aged 18 and older:
* Who are diagnosed with advanced non-small cell lung cancer and indicated for TKI (first or second line). TKI combined with chemotherapy is allowed,
* Who have not started TKI / chemotherapy before enrollment,
* Who have no medical or psychiatric conditions or occupational responsibilities that may preclude compliance with the protocol,
* FFPE/FNA sample is available,
* Compliant with treatment protocol,
* Patients consented to participate in the study. As part of the protocol, demographic data, medical and family history, and any relevant prior concomitant medication data will be recorded during follow-up visits. All patients are to be followed for 2 years from enrollment, with CT scan imaging measured every clinical visit for 24 months.
Sample collection:
* 10 mL of peripheral blood (in Streck tubes) is collected for ctDNA analysis at 8 time points: pre-treatment (\<10 days before TKI), during TKI every 3 months until 21 months.
* 6-8 sections of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tumor samples before TKI/chemotherapy treatment.
