Brief summary in lay language

High precision radiotherapy (SBRT) leads to cell death of tumor cells, but also to specific immune response against the tumor. Main objective of this trial is to analyse potential changes of certain biomarkers of the immune response in the blood of patients who get tretaed with SBRT for lung cancer or lung metastases.

Brief summary in scientific language

The main objective of this approach is to prospectively evaluate novel and minimally invasive biomarkers of (tumor specific) immune response to SBRT in NSCLC patients, as well as in patients with solitary or oligometastatic pulmonary metastases.

Health condition or problem studied

ICD10:
C34 - Malignant neoplasm of bronchus and lung
Healthy volunteers:
No Entry

Interventions, Observational Groups

Arm 1:
Blood samples of patients with primary or recurrent NSCLC collected before, during and after SBRT (Stereotactic Body RadioTherapy) will be evaluated for immunespecific, circulating biomarkers.
Arm 2:
Blood samples of patients with pulmonary metastases will be evaluated for immune-specific, circulating biomarkers.
Arm 3:
Patients with systemic treatment within 3 months before SBRT will be separately analyzed and compared to the patients who received no systemic treatment.

Endpoints

Primary outcome:
Increase of CTL counts six weeks after SBRT compared to baseline
Secondary outcome:
- Significant changes in number and phenotype of lymphocytes - Significant changes in number and phenotype of myeloid cells - Significant changes in circulating biomarkers of immune response in the plasma - Association between treatment related data and changes in different biomarkers of immune response - Association between treatment outcomes and changes in different biomarkers of immune response - Differences in the above mentioned endpoints between patients with or without prior / simultaneous radiation and /or systemic therapy
