Filter by:This study is a prospective trial of Alimta (pemetrexed) versus IRESSA (gefitinib) among epidermal growth factor receptor wild-type Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients in a 2nd line setting.
The purpose of this non-interventional study is to collect data on efficacy and toxicity of the use of Navelbine ORAL in daily routine in Germany (especially after availability of an 80mg capsule). The study focusses on concomitant antiemetic therapy and patient compliance.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of AZD6244 in combination with docetaxel versus docetaxel alone in patients with KRAS mutation positive locally advanced or metastatic non small cell lung cancer.
A new type of treatment called stereotactic radiotherapy has recently been developed in hopes of improving the success of the treatment and improving the convenience to patients, while reducing the side effects. This study is developing stereotactic radiotherapy as a state-of-the-art treatment for lung cancer patients.
The trial is a phase II study of daily Tarceva combined with definitive radiotherapy in inoperable locally advanced non small cell lung cancer (stage IIB-IIIB). The objective of the phase II trial is to examine Tarceva concomitant with curatively intended irradiation 66 Gy (2 Gy x 33 F, 5 F per week).
This study is an open label randomized multi-centre phase II trial in patients with inoperable locally advanced stage IIB-IIIB Non Small Cell Lung Cancer who fulfils the general criteria for curatively intended irradiation. The treatment plan consists of two courses of inductions chemotherapy followed of concomitant therapy chemo-radiotherapy 3 weeks after day 1 of the last induction chemotherapy has been given. The patients will be included in the study after completing the induction chemotherapy. Randomization will take place only if an acceptable dose plan can be obtained.
Thymidylate synthase (TS) is a substance the body produces naturally. The purpose of this research is to determine if there is a link between TS production and how well patients respond to treatment of non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The aim for the future is that doctors could have a better understanding in advance about which patients might respond well to pemetrexed based on how much TS they produce.
This 2 arm study will compare the efficacy and safety of sequential treatment with Tarceva or placebo, plus platinum-based therapy, as first line treatment in patients with advanced or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive gemcitabine (1250mg/m2 iv) on days 1 and 8, and cisplatin (75mg/m2) or carboplatin (5xAUC)on day 1, followed by Tarceva 150mg/day or placebo from day 15 to day 28 of each 4 week cycle for a total of 6 cycles,then followed by Tarceva or placebo monotherapy.The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether it is safe to treat lung cancer patients who have undergone an attempt at curative resection with the combination of docetaxel and carboplatin.
This is a multi center international observational study of subjects receiving myelotoxic regimens, with an investigator assessed risk of Febrile Neutropenia (FN) ≥ 20%, for the treatment of solid tumors (breast, ovarian and lung). Approximately 100-150 sites will contribute information on 10-15 subjects treated at their institution.
