Plasma Multi - Omics Detection for Evaluating Efficacy and Recurrence Risk in Oligometastatic Colorectal Cancer Conversion Therapy
Sponsor: Xiujuan Qu
Summary
This prospective study (PMEIRR-OCCCT) evaluates the utility of plasma multi-omics-including circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), cell-free RNA (cfRNA), proteomics, and metabolomics-in assessing response to conversion therapy and predicting recurrence in 120 patients with oligometastatic colorectal cancer (≤5 liver and/or lung metastases). Blood samples are collected at predefined timepoints: before conversion therapy, 3-6 weeks post-therapy, within 2 months after surgery or non-radical treatment, and during 24-month follow-up. Patients are stratified into radical vs. non-radical treatment groups based on post-conversion resectability. Tumor assessments (CT/MRI and CEA/CA19-9) occur every 3-4 months. The primary endpoint is progression-free survival (PFS) stratified by MRD status (ctDNA-negative vs. ctDNA-positive). Secondary endpoints include objective response rate (ORR), overall survival (OS), and duration of no evidence of disease (NED). The study aims to identify multi-omic biomarkers for early recurrence prediction and personalized intervention.

Plasma Multi - omics Detection
Description: This study utilizes a holistic plasma multi-omics approach, integrating circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), cell-free RNA (cfRNA), proteomics, and metabolomics to evaluate treatment response. Unlike conventional single-marker studies, this integration captures diverse biological signals-from genomic alterations to metabolic shifts-providing a superior assessment of efficacy and recurrence risk in oligometastatic CRC. All participants, regardless of their subsequent treatment path (radical or non-radical), undergo standardized blood collection at key clinical milestones: baseline, post-conversion therapy, and throughout a 2-year follow-up period. This allows for a continuous molecular "snapshot" of the disease, enabling the identification of MRD-positive patients who may require intensified intervention.
