Role of Rapid On-site Evaluation for Mutational Analysis of EBUS-TBNA Specimens

Brief Summary
The purpose of the study is to determine if rapid on-site evaluation of EBUS-TBNA samples can increase the percentage of patients with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer in whom both pathologic subtyping and mutational analysis are obtained.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Mutational analysis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), K-ras, and ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) genes
Percentage of patients for whom the mutational analysis of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), K-ras, and ALK (anaplastic lymphoma kinase) genes on EBUS-TBNA samples is obtained
18 months
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Diagnostic yield of EBUS-TBNA
18 months
Adequacy of EBUS-TBNA samples
18 months
Study Arms (2)
EBUS-TBNA + Rapid on-site evaluation
EXPERIMENTALPatients in this arm will undergo rapid-on site evaluation of samples obtained with EBUS-TBNA
EBUS-TBNA
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients in this arm will undergo EBUS-TBNA without rapid on-site evaluation
Interventions
Rapid on-site evaluation consists on the cytological evaluation of samples obtained during a diagnostic procedure by a pathologist present in the diagnostic suite. In the present study, cytological samples obtained with EBUS-TBNA during bronchoscopy will be evaluated.
EBUS-TBNA is a needle aspiration procedure guided by endobronchial ultrasounds performed during bronchoscopy
