NCT03563482

Brief Summary

The purpose of the present study is to prospectively investigate the correlation between the metabolic parameters on FDG-PET before and during immunotherapy treatment with the immune infiltrate and other tissue or circulating markers in a NSCLC patients candidate to immunotherapy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Correlate the tumor expression of immune markers with the metabolic characteristics on FDG-PET in patients with NSCLC candidates to immunotherapy.

    Standardized uptake value

    Baseline

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Tumor expression of immune markers with the metabolic characteristics on FDG-PET in patients with NSCLC candidates to immunotherapy.

    Before treatment

  • Correlate immune markers with the metabolic characteristics on FDG-PET in patients with NSCLC candidates to immunotherapy.

    Baseline

  • Evaluate the variation of metabolic parameters on FDG-PET in patients with NSCLC before and 8 weeks after the first administration of immunotherapy.

    After 8 weeks of treatment

  • Quantify the variation of metabolic parameters on FDG-PET in patients with NSCLC before and 8 weeks after the first administration of immunotherapy.

    After 8 weeks of treatment

  • Evaluate other tissue or circulating markers in patients with NSCLC before and 8 weeks after the first administration of immunotherapy.

    Baseline

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (1)

  • Correlate all defined parameters with response to treatment and outcome

    18 months of follow up
