SAA1 levels to predict cancer immunotherapy response
Part of Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial measures a protein called SAA1 in your blood and tumor tissue to see if it can predict how your cancer will respond to immunotherapy. It aims to understand why some patients have rapid tumor growth after treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a confirmed diagnosis of one of the listed cancers (e.g., lung, breast, colon, head and neck, or others)
- You are scheduled to receive immunotherapy (immune checkpoint inhibitors)
- Your overall health status is good enough for daily activities (ECOG score 0 or 1)
- You do not have other active cancers (except certain cured skin or cervical cancers)

This study is looking at a blood marker called SAA1 to see if it can predict how severe mouth sores (oral mucositis) will be after radiation therapy. If you have head and neck cancer and are about to get radiation, this trial may help answer questions about side effects.
This trial studies how well immunotherapy might work by analyzing fresh tumor biopsies. It may help predict which treatments are best for your cancer.
This trial is testing a simple blood test to see if it can predict how well immunotherapy will work for people with advanced cancer. It's for those newly diagnosed with certain cancers and about to start immunotherapy as their first treatment.
This trial studies whether a simple blood test can predict how well your immune system will respond to immunotherapy (such as Keytruda or Opdivo). You may qualify if you have lung cancer (NSCLC) or advanced melanoma and are about to start this type of treatment for the first time.
This trial is looking at a blood test to predict how well combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy will work in people with advanced lung cancer. It uses a new marker called ETASTs to help guide treatment decisions.
This study looks at whether certain glycoproteins in your blood can help predict how well immunotherapy works for advanced non-small cell lung cancer. You would give blood samples before and after starting an immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment.
