NCT04435067

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is the characterization from epidemiological, radiomics and molecular point of view of lung metastasis of patients at beginning affected by pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC), which after the resection of primitive tumor have met with initial recurrence of the disease exclusively at the lung level.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Clinical and pathological features of lung metastasis

    Analyze the clinical and pathological characteristics of the two cohorts of patients affected by lung metastasis from PDAC

    6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Molecular and radiomics features of lung metastasis

    18 months

  • Differences between the two cohorts

    18 months

Study Arms (2)

Cohort A

patients in whom lung metastasis were resected for therapeutic purposes

Genetic: Analysis of genetic mutations and the gene expression profile of lung metastasis and primary neoplasiaOther: Radiomics analysis on TAC imaging at diagnosis of lung metastasis and, if possible, of the primary tumor

Cohort B

patients in whom lung metastasis were removed for diagnostic purposes only

Genetic: Analysis of genetic mutations and the gene expression profile of lung metastasis and primary neoplasiaOther: Radiomics analysis on TAC imaging at diagnosis of lung metastasis and, if possible, of the primary tumor

Interventions

The mutational analysis of the main oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes involved in the genesis and tumor progression will be performed on the genomic DNA extracted from each sample using the Ion Torrent TM Oncomine TM Comprehensive Assay version 3 (OCAv3) kit. This panel includes 161 cancer-related genes and allows the identification of all genomic alterations affecting oncogenes and recurrently altered tumor suppressor genes in solid tumors. The study of gene expression will be carried out using Nanostring Technology using the Pancancer IO 360 TM panel which allows simultaneous analysis for each sample of multiple mRNAs associated with crucial pathways in carcinogenesis and the immunological profile of the tumor, defining its up and down conditions gene regulation.

Cohort ACohort B

This study will be performed using the SPAARC IBSI (International Biomarker Standardization Initiative) compliant software implemented in the MatLab environment (MathWorks, Boston, USA) through several steps: (a) CT imaging retrieval, (b) image segmentation and rendering, (c) feature extraction and (d) qualification/quantification. Approximately 200 radiomics characteristics will be extracted, such as: Morphology, Statistical, Intensity Histogram, Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix 3D\_average, Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix 3D\_combined, Gray Level Run Length 3D\_average, Gray Level Run Length 3D\_combined, Gray Level Size Zone Matrix 3D, Neighbor Gray Tone Difference Matrix 3D, Gray Level Distance Zone Matrix 3D.

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

All patients with a confirmed diagnosis of lung metastasis from PDAC from 2008 to 2019

You may qualify if:

  • Cytological/histological diagnosis of pancreatic adenocarcinoma as a primary tumor and localization of adenocarcinoma compatible with pancreatic primitivity for lung metastasis;
  • Previous surgical resection of the primary tumor;
  • Exclusive presence of single or multiple lung metastasis at disease recurrence;
  • Radical or diagnostic excision of lung metastasis;
  • Informed patient consent (for currently living patients).

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients not undergoing lung resection surgery for diagnostic and/or therapeutic purposes for cardiac or respiratory functional contraindication.
  • Patients with lung metastases synchronous with primary cancer. Contacts and Locations
