NCT04844827 | RECRUITING | Pleural Effusion, Malignant

Pleural Carcinomatosis Tissue Banking
Sponsor:

Lyon Civilian Hospices

Brief Summary:

Malignant pleural effusion is a common evolution of various cancers and is associated with poor prognosis and quality of life. About 28% of patients with primary malignancy will develop pleural metastasis. Malignant pleural effusion mostly occurs in lung, breast, ovarian and gastric cancers. Median survival ranges from 3 to 13 months according to primary malignancy. Currently, the therapeutic approach is mainly palliative with videothoracoscopic talc pleurodesis or indwelling pleural catheters insertion eventually associated with systemic chemotherapy if patient's general condition allows. In a early-disseminated tumor cells profile, metastatic cells can accumulate alterations at a distant site and have a different profil from the original tumor cells. Metastatic cells can also accumulate alterations in the course if systemic treatments. Consequently, they may respond differently to drugs. Recently, EGFR mutations and ALK status discordance between primary tumors and pleural metastases have been demonstrated in a significant portion of lung adenocarcinomas. These studies, realized on malignant pleural effusion isolated cells, enabled us to hypothesize a possible intratumoral heterogeneity within pleural metastases, but no study has been carried out on pleural tissue. Our aim is to create a biocollection with tissues from pleural carcinomatosis in order to subsequently allow multiomics and bioinformatics analyzes and to characterize a possible intratumoral heterogeneity in pleural metastasis.
