NCT06089967
Condition:

Time perspective:

Intervention:
Intervention type:
Other
Intervention name:
Medical chart review
Description:
Clinical data for all enrolled patients will be abstracted from the electronic medical
record. This will include but will not be limited to patient demographics, primary
disease (site, histology, histologic grade, staging system used, staging, molecular
markers), prior cancer treatment, immunotherapy received, time of onset, treatment
received for irAEs, and disease response to treatment. Clinical data will be collected
for up to one year after discontinuation of cancer immunotherapy treatment.
Arm group label:
Immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment
Summary:
The purpose of this project is to collect body samples like blood and tissue and health
information from people receiving immune-based treatment for cancer. The body samples and
health information will be stored for future research to understand more about side
effects related to immune-based treatments for cancer.
Detailed description:
This is a prospective biospecimen and clinical data collection study in adult
participants with melanoma, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma,
basal cell carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, renal cell
carcinoma, urothelial cancer, Hodgkins lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, head and neck
carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, breast carcinoma, gastric carcinoma, esophageal
carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, pancreatic cancer, and any microsatellite instability-high
(MSI-H) malignancy who are being treated with any of the following therapies alone or in
combination:
- anti-PD-1 (nivolumab, pembrolizumab, cemiplimab)
- anti-CTLA-4 (ipilimumab or tremelimumab)
- anti-PD-L1 (atezolizumab, durvalumab, avelumab)
- anti-LAG3 (relatlimab)
Additional agents with similar mechanisms of action, e.g., targeting any of the above
proteins may be included. Those with other targets may be considered on a case-by-case
basis.
The goal of this study is to collect patient specimens from time points before, during,
and after cancer immunotherapy discontinuation. Participants must agree to collection of
biospecimens and clinical data. Biospecimens to be collected under this study include but
are not limited to, blood specimens, primary or metastatic tumor specimen(s), end organ
biospecimens such as bronchoalveolar/synovial fluid or colon tissues biopsies, and any
other tissues that are biopsied for evaluation of a potential immune-related adverse
events (irAE). Clinical data, including, but not limited to, cancer diagnosis, staging,
treatment, toxicities and management, will be collected for up to one year after
discontinuation of cancer immunotherapy treatment.
Criteria for eligibility:
Study pop:
Adult cancer patients at Duke University Health Systems starting immune checkpoint
inhibitor therapy.
Sampling method:
Non-Probability Sample
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
1. Male or female 18 years of age or older.
2. Selected for standard of care therapy with a checkpoint inhibitor or
immunotherapeutic as recommended by their medical oncologist, including but not
limited to: pembrolizumab, nivolumab, cemiplimab, ipilimumab, tremelimumab,
durvalumab, atezolizumab, avelumab, and relatlimab.
3. Histologically confirmed diagnosis with a malignancy, including but not limited to:
melanoma, cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, basal cell
carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, small cell lung cancer, renal cell carcinoma,
urothelial cancer, Hodgkins lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, head and neck carcinoma,
hepatocellular carcinoma, breast carcinoma, gastric carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma,
cholangiocarcinoma, pancreatic cancer, and any microsatellite instability-high
(MSI-H) malignancy.
4. Legally be allowed to sign as well as be able to understand and date the study and
written informed consent to take part in all mentioned evaluations.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. Cytotoxic chemotherapy or biologic agents (eg. cytokines or antibodies) within 4
weeks of treatment initiation.
2. Steroids equivalent to or greater than prednisone 10 mg daily within 2 weeks of
treatment initiation.
3. Antibiotic therapies within 2 weeks of treatment initiation.
4. Previously confirmed diagnosis of an autoimmune disease felt by the investigators to
complicate data analysis. Those autoimmune conditions generally felt to be benign
such as atopic dermatitis will be considered for enrollment on a case-by-case basis.
5. Organ transplant recipients on immunosuppressive agents.
6. Immunosuppressive drugs in the last 12 weeks for reasons other than autoimmune
disease or organ transplants.
