Short- and Mid-term Therapeutic, Prognostic, and Societal Impact of Implementing Intraoperative Assessment of Pulmonary Resection Quality for Lung Cancer

Sponsor: Fondation Hôpital Saint-Joseph

Summary

QUALITYSURG is a multicenter interventional study evaluating whether a collaborative intraoperative quality checklist (QualitySurg List) can improve the oncological quality of lung cancer resections. The study includes three phases: a Delphi consensus to define checklist contents, a cluster-randomized trial comparing checklist use versus standard care, and a prospective implementation phase assessing long-term adoption. The primary endpoint is the proportion of confirmed R0 resections according to 2020 IASLC criteria.Two optional ancillary studies are embedded within the main protocol. BIO-QualitySurg aims to evaluate biological markers of residual disease and develop the concept of a biological R0 resection using circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA), tissue biomarkers, and integrated molecular analyses. BIO-QualitySurg is complementary to the objectives of the European REALCARE project, which investigates ctDNA-based approaches for residual disease assessment and personalized cancer management. VIDEO-QualitySurg contributes to the broader objective of improving quality assessment and standardization of thoracic oncologic surgery through digital technologies and artificial intelligence.
