Purpose:
This trial collects research data and samples from patients who experience immunotherapy side
effects to store for use in future research studies. Studying research data and samples from
patients who experience immunotherapy side effects may help researchers better understand how
to predict, prevent, and treat these side effects.
Study summary:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
To establish a national biorepository including biospecimen and clinical data collections
from patients treated with immuno-oncology (IO) therapeutics who experience one or more
serious (grade 3-4) immune-related adverse events (irAEs), rare infections or
hyperprogression (acceleration of tumor growth).
OUTLINE:
Patients undergo collection of tissue and blood samples (and optional stool samples from
patients experiencing colitis) at the time of registration (within 72 hours of confirmation
of one or more severe irAEs) and at 1 month after registration. Patients' medical records are
also reviewed for up to 1 year.
Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Received a regimen containing one or more immuno-oncology therapeutics
- Must have experienced one or more of the following:
- One or more serious (Grade 3-4) AEs that are likely immune-related
- One or more Grade 2 dermatologic or rheumatologic AEs that are likely
immune-related
- Diagnosis of a rare infection, e.g., fungal or mycobacterial, after starting IO
treatment
** Note: Diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) is excluded
- Hyperprogression. Image submission for patients experiencing hyperprogression is
required. For assistance in determining hyperprogression for purposes of
eligibility, institutions may contact the study chair and submit images for
central review
- Has not previously been registered to this study
