Filter by:Our hypothesis is that patients receiving therapy based on their baseline tumor ERCC1 levels and EGFR mutations would attain better disease free survival rates than patients in the control arm receiving noncustomized therapy. Using this selective approach, patients with stage II and IIIA non N2 NSCLC in the genotypic arm with low ERCC1 levels will receive cisplatin plus pemetrexed, and those with high ERCC1 levels will not receive cisplatin-based chemotherapy. If they harbor EGRF mutations they will be treated with erlotinib. The study will be restricted to non-squamous NSCLC for two mains reasons. First, this will enrich the EGFR mutation rate that is awaited to be higher in these tumors than in squamous cell carcinoma. Second, permetrexed cisplatin combination has a promising efficacy and favorable toxicity profile and is of potential interest in the adjuvant setting of resected non-squamous NSCLC.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pazopanib compared with placebo in patients with T < or = 5 cm, N0 (stage I according to TNM 2009) completely resected NSCLC.
This single arm study will assess the feasibility of use, safety and tolerability of Avastin(bevacizumab) in combination with chemoradiation therapy in patients with locally advanced unresectable non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.An initial cohort of patients will receive Avastin 7.5mg/kg iv every 3 weeks, in combination with concurrent thoracic radiation for 6.6 weeks and chemotherapy (cisplatin 75 mg/m2 iv and vinorelbine 15mg/m2 iv administered according to a standard treatment protocol). If no dose-limiting toxicities are observed, a second cohort of patients will receive Avastin at a dose of 15mg/kg iv every 3 weeks, in combination with a similar treatment regimen to that of the first cohort. After 5 cycles of combination treatment, Avastin monotherapy will be administered for a further 4 cycles. The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
The primary objective is to determine the anti-tumor activity of the combination of apricoxib + either docetaxel (AP/DC) or pemetrexed (AP/PE) compared with placebo + either docetaxel (P/DC) or pemetrexed (P/PE) as measured by progression free survival in patients with Stage IIIb (pleural effusion)or Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Rationale: a number of recent phase III randomized trials have shown a survival benefit of a treatment with subcutaneous low-molecular weight heparin in patients with advanced solid malignancies. The survival advantages observed in the studies persist for months after the active treatment with LMWHs. Therefore these survival advantages are thought to be due to effects of LMWHs on tumor cell biology. First line treatment of advanced NSCLC patients with the Cisplatin + Docetaxel combination has been widely studied, and is amongst the most active treatments currently available. The occurrence of grade 3/4 thrombopenia in several phase III trials was in the 0-3% range, making it an ideal chemotherapy regimen to combine with LMWHs in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.
This is a double blind, multicentre, randomized, placebo-controlled study. The eligible patients will be randomized to receive gefitinib or placebo at 1:1 ratio. This study will recruit 296 male or female, histologically or cytologically diagnosed locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC patients with a World Health Organization (WHO) Performance Status (PS) 0-2. Patients must have completed 4 cycles of platinum based first line doublet chemotherapy without experiencing disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The chemotherapy shall be given every 3 weeks, which includes cisplatin or carboplatin, combined with any one of the following: gemcitabine, paclitaxel, docetaxel, vinorelbine.
This study will compare PF-00299804 given orally on continuous schedule to the approved drug, erlotinib, in patients whose non-small cell lung cancer has progressed after chemotherapy; patients will be randomized to receive one of these drugs, and followed for efficacy and tolerance of each.
AG-013736 (axitinib) in combination with cisplatin and pemetrexed will be evaluated as first-line treatment of patients with locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic non-squamous, non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
A multicenter Prospective Study to assess the screening methods, parameter of NTX and the efficacy and safety of zoledronic acid treatment in addition to anti-tumor therapy in patients of non-small cell cancer with bone metastasis in china.
Aim of the study is to evaluated the role of IGF1R and p95HER2 on prognosis in radically resected non small cell lung cancer patients The primary objective is to correlate the expression of IGF1R and p95HER2 with survival.
