Filter by:This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of icotinib at routine dose and higher dose as second-line treatment in non-small cell lung cancer patients with epidermal growth factor receptor of wild type.
All subjects will receive the vaccine subcutaneously every 3 weeks x 3 with optional yearly booster vaccines up to and including 5 years post last vaccine for those patients who are confirmed responders to the vaccine . The rationale for using Poly-ICLC as an adjuvant are two ongoing trials at University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute (UPCI) of the MUC1 100mer peptide vaccine - one as a therapeutic vaccine in subjects with metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer and the other in subjects with advanced colonic adenomas at risk for developing colon cancer. The same formulation, MUC1 100mer peptide admixed with Poly-ICLC, is used in both trials. There has been no toxicity observed and the vaccine is highly immunogenic in early disease. In the proposed NSCLC trial the anti-MUC1 immune response will be thoroughly characterized.
Surgery may be the best treatment choice for early stage non-small cell lung cancer. And VATS major lung resection have been preferred as a standard radical procedure for early stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).This study aim to investigate the outcome of VATS major lung resection for lung cancer as a real-world study in china.
This phase II randomised, double blind, placebo controlled, multicentre trial is designed to assess the efficacy and safety of continuous icotinib plus chemotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in patients who have progressed after benefiting from previous second or third-line icotinib treatment (more than 6 months) in locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
The primary purposes of this study are to assess the safety and efficacy of using high doses of the drug Icotinib (Conmana) as a way to treat patients with non-small cell lung cancer that achieve stable disease after 8 weeks routine therapy.
Brain metastases, a common complication,occur in 25-40% of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Whole-brain radiation therapy(WBRT) and Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) are important approaches to the treatment of brain metastases from NSCLC. Known to us, epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) can pass through the blood-brain barrier and show promising antitumor activity against brain metastases from NSCLC, especially for EGFR mutation patients. However, due to the lower concentration of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in the cerebrospinal fluid and its inevitable emergence of drug resistance, brain metastases will be refractory or resistant to standard-dose EGFR inhibitors. Icotinib is one agent of EGFR-TKIs. The previous studies have shown that the Icotinib conventional dose (125mg, TID) is far from reached its maximum tolerable dose. It is a challenge whether the further dose escalation of Icotinib will enhance its concentration in cerebrospinal fluid and thereby improve its therapeutic effect. Here the investigators examine the therapeutic effect and side-effect of double dose of Icitinib in treating patients with brain metastases from NSCLC who have suffered from the failure of conventional dose treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Endostar pumping into vein with Gemcitabine-Cisplatin are more effective than Endostar with Gemcitabine-Cisplatin regularly in the treatment of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC).
This study is designed to compare the efficacy and safety of first-line icotinib treatment and first-line chemotherapy followed by maintenance treatment with icotinib.
The purpose of this phase II study is to find out what effects cabozantinib (XL184) has, good and/or bad, in patients whose tumors one of the following gene changes RET, ROS1, or NTRK fusion, or increased MET or AXL activity. A phase II study looks at how effective a medication is at treating a specific type of cancer and collects information on the side effects of the study treatment. RET, ROS1, or NTRK fusion or increased MET or AXL activity gene leads to lung cancer cell growth. Cabozantinib is an oral medicine that inhibits of RET, ROS1, NTRK, MET, and AXL. In addition, this drug interferes with other cell pathways that also cause cancer cells to grow, form new blood vessels, and spread to other organs of the body. The goal of using cabozantinib is to shrink the cancer and to prevent it from growing Cabozantinib has been studied and shown to cause cancer shrinkage in other cancers such as medullary thyroid cancer and prostate cancer. We thus have a good idea of what side-effects it causes and can anticipate them.
The primary objective of the study is to compare overall survival of patients randomized to receiving custirsen in combination with docetaxel (Arm A) with patients randomized to receive docetaxel alone (Arm B).
