Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The researchers are doing this study to test the ability of a new technology called breathprinting, or electronic nose (E-Nose), to measure changes in certain chemicals in the breath before and after standard neoadjuvant therapy in people with NSCLC.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Cohort 1 (stage II to IIIB NSCLC)

40 patients undergoing neoadjuvant treatment (stages II to IIIB) will undergo breath sampling (1) at baseline before any treatment, (2) 2 weeks after neoadjuvant therapy, (3) 2 weeks after surgery, (4) 6 months after surgery, and (5) every 6 months for the first 2 years. Blood sample collections will coincide with the breath collection schedule.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Breath sample collection

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Cohort 1: patients undergoing neoadjuvant treatment (stages II to IIIB) will undergo breath sampling (1) at baseline before any treatment, (2) 2 weeks after neoadjuvant therapy, (3) 2 weeks after surgery, (4) 6 months after surgery, and (5) every 6 months for the first 2 years.

Cohort 2: patients who are planned to undergo upfront surgery will undergo breath sampling (1) at baseline before upfront surgery, (2) 2 weeks after surgery, (3) 6 months after surgery, and (4) every 6 months for the first 2 years.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Age ≥18
* Untreated clinical stage I NSCLC amenable to upfront surgery
* Untreated stage II to IIIB NSCLC amenable to neoadjuvant treatment followed by surgery
* ECOG Performance Status of ≤2 Of note, the E-nose is a completely noninvasive technology (only breath samples are collected). Therefore, this intervention would have no effects on a developing human fetus. There are therefore no requirements for the study population related to contraception or pregnancy testing.
