Pathogenic Variants in Genes Associated With Lung Adenocarcinoma (NCT06181812)

Prevalence of Pathogenic or Likely Pathogenic Germline Variants in Cancer Predisposition Genes Among Patients With Lung Adenocarcinoma

🟢 Recruiting Interventional Protocol 📊 Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: Oscar Gerardo Arrieta Rodríguez

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this observational study is to describe the prevalence of germ line-pathogenic variants in Mexican patients with lung adenocarcinoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the prevalence of pathogenic variants in genes associated with lung adenocarcinoma in Mexican patients younger than fifty? 2. Which clinical-pathological characteristics are associated with germ-line pathogenic variants in patients with lung adenocarcinoma? 3. How actionable somatic mutations are associated with germ line-pathogenic variants of patients with lung adenocarcinoma? Participants will be asked to sign an informed consent; after that, they will be instructed to donate 10 ml of peripheral blood by venipuncture in the morning and before the patient has taken morning medication and the first meal, following a period of 8-12 hr fasting.
