Filter by:This observational study will investigate the tolerability and efficacy of Tarceva (erlotinib) in daily clinical practice under routine conditions in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non small cell lung cancer. Data will be collected for approximately 12 months.
Present study is aimed at investigating potential molecular predictors of sensitivity or resistance to single-agent pemetrexed in the ≥ second line setting in a large cohort of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The following biomarkers will be investigated with either immunohistochemistry, fluorescence in situ hybridization or genotyping: thymidylate synthase (TS), dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), glycinamide ribonucleotide formyl transferase (GARFT), aminoimidazole carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase (ATIC/AICARFT), epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), Kirsten rat sarcoma 2 viral oncogene homolog (KRAS), v-myc myelocytomatosis viral oncogene homolog (MYC) and phosphoinositide-3-kinase, catalytic, alpha polypeptide (PIK3CA).
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and determine the optimal dose of a new drug, demcizumab (OMP-21M18), when given in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed, a standard drug treatment regimen for non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Participants must not have received prior chemotherapy for their NSCLC. Demcizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody (a protein made in the laboratory) developed to target cancer stem cells. The way the body handles demcizumab will also be investigated. Up to 50 subjects will be enrolled at up to 8 centers in Australia, New Zealand, and Spain. Up to 28 days (4 weeks) prior to treatment you will undergo testing to determine your eligibility to take part in this study, and then if enrolled in the study you will receive intravenous (in the vein) infusions of the demcizumab, carboplatin, and pemetrexed administered on the same day, every 21 days for 4 cycles, or until it has been shown that your cancer has progressed. If your physician decides to delay treatment with one of the agents due to side effects, the other agents may still be administered as scheduled. After 4 cycles, if you have stable or improved disease, you will continue to receive pemetrexed once every 21 days as maintenance therapy. You will undergo assessments every 8 weeks to determine the status of your disease.
A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2 study with a 1:1 randomization scheme.
This open label, 2-part study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of RO5083945 in combination with standard chemotherapy in patients with advanced or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer who have not received prior chemotherapy. In Part 1 patients will receive RO5083945 intravenously and standard chemotherapy (cisplatin plus either gemcitabine or pemetrexed) for up to 6 cycles of 3 weeks and then RO5083945 until disease progression. In Part 2 patients will be randomized to receive either RO5083945 in combination with standard chemotherapy or chemotherapy alone for up to 6 cycles. In the absence of disease progression, patients receiving RO503945 can continue treatment with RO5083945 as monotherapy.
This protocol is a single arm phase II multi-center trial evaluating the efficacy of Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) in patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with response or stable disease after 4 cycles of first-line chemotherapy. The core hypothesis tested is that SBRT after 4 cycles of first-line chemotherapy is feasible, safe, provides durable local control of treated lesions and improves time to progression compared to historical controls. Patients are eligible for enrollment if they have metastatic NSCLC with ≤5 lesions amenable to SBRT.
The purpose of this study is to study the changes in protein in lung cells of Asian patients with advanced non small cell lung cancer.
This prospective, double-blind, randomized study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of two dose levels of erlotinib [Tarceva] on progression-free survival, response and disease control rates and overall survival in patients with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) after failure of first-line platinum-based chemotherapy. Patients must be current smokers and not intending to stop smoking during the study. Patients will be randomized to receive either 150 mg or 300 mg of study drug as single daily oral doses. Treatment will continue until disease progression.
Patients treated with radiation therapy for lung tumors can experience inflammation after treatment. This study hopes to evaluate the use of breath analysis to evaluate changes in the composition of exhaled breath in patients undergoing radiotherapy. If changes can be detected, this may ultimately serve as biomarkers for identifying patients at highest risk for radiation-induced lung injury (radiation pneumonitis).
This open-label, single arm study will assess the correlation between Tarceva (erlotinib)-induced rash and efficacy in participants with inoperable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) receiving first-line therapy for advanced disease. Participants will receive Tarceva at a dose of 150 mg daily orally, with dose adjustments according to protocol depending on toxicity. Anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal due to any reason.
