  • IRB No: Pro00057311

    Protocol Abbrev: NSABP C-14

    Principal Investigator: Omar R. Kayaleh, MD

    Phase: Device: Category N/A

    Age Group: Adult

    Secondary Protocol No: 16-002/ CORRECT-MRD II

    Treatment: A post-op blood draw

    ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05210283

  • Objective

    PRIMARY: To validate the association of post-surgery baseline and pre-recurrence follow-up ctDNA positivity with recurrence-free interval (RFI).

    SECONDARY:  To assess the sensitivity and specificity of ctDNA positivity for subsequent clinical recurrence.
     To assess the contribution of post-surgery baseline, post-adjuvant therapy, and pre-recurrence follow-up ctDNA results (as a time-dependent covariate) on RFI. These ctDNA results will be assessed for their contribution independent of clinicopathological risk features, serial serum CEA, and recurrence risk as estimated using RS.  To assess time from positive ctDNA to clinical recurrence in subjects who had a positive ctDNA result.  To compare the RS estimate of 3-year recurrence risk with the observed 3-year recurrence rate.

    EXPLORATORY:  To describe overall survival for each of the following groups:
     +/+: ctDNA+ at baseline and remain positive throughout follow-up.
     +/-: ctDNA+ at baseline and convert to negative during follow-up.  -/+: ctDNA- at baseline and convert to positive during follow-up.
     -/-: ctDNA- at baseline and throughout follow-up.
     To describe time to progression (or second recurrence, if first recurrence was a resectable oligometastasis), in patients with targetable mutations found vs not found using Oncotype MAP-t results and describe treatments received.
     Examine differences between Oncotype MAP-t results in primary vs recurrent tissue.
     To assess the association with RFI of baseline ctDNA results measured at 14-28 days post-surgery as compared to 29 days or more.

  • Key Eligibility

    Inclusion criteria:
    Subject is/has: 1. 18 years of age or older.
