Microdevice for Evaluating Drug Response in Site in Lung Lesions

NCT03972228 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: EARLY_PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 5

Summary

This is a pilot study for placement of a tiny microdevice into lung tumors to more precisely predict tumor-specific drug sensitivity, and to help inform systemic therapeutic decisions. The microdevice will provide a novel technique for interrogating human lung tumor tissue in situ, and will uniquely facilitate assessment of response to multiple drugs simultaneously. This will not only increase the specificity of a particular participant's chosen systemic therapy, it will also augment the speed and efficiency with which investigators are able to make clinical decisions regarding choice of therapy.

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Microdevice loaded with 19 chemotherapeutic agents

The microdevice containing 19 FDA-approved chemotherapeutic agents will be placed in the suspected tumor tissue at the time of surgical resection. Multiple chemotherapeutic agents will passively diffuse into local, confined regions (several microns) of the surrounding microenvironment. The agents are released at approximately one millionth of a systemic dose. The device(s) will be removed for analysis at the time of resection, which will be performed for clinical indications independent of enrollment in this study.
