Filter by:The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of intercalated combination of erlotinib and radiotherapy for patients with EGFR-mutant, unresectable, locally advanced NSCLC, and to explore a new treatment strategy for this subset. After Induction by erlotinib, local radiotherapy is intercalated, and followed by 24-week erlotinib maintenance.
The investigatros hypothesized that selection of surgical procedure according to the pre-defined institutional decision-making algorithm will not compromise the treatment outcomes including overall survival and disease-free survival in participants with clinical stage IA non-small cell lung cancer. The purpose of this study is to determine the outcome of participants with clinical stage IA NSCLC treated by 3 types of surgical resection (wide wedge resection, segmentectomy, or lobectomy) according to the institutional decision-making algorithm The investigators are planning to enroll 1,000 participants who meet the pre-defined eligibility criteria over 5 years.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and the effect of daily, individual, supervised and structured exercise training before radiotherapy in patients diagnosed with Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer. Primary outcome is maximal oxygen uptake (VO2peak). The hypotheses are that patients who undergo daily exercise training will increase VO2peak, functional capacity (measured by 6-minute walk test (6MWD)) and lung function (forced expired volume in one second (FEV1)).
This phase II trial studies how well poziotinib works in treating patients with non-small lung cancer with an EGFR or HER2 exon 20 mutation that is stage IV or has come back (recurrent). Poziotinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth..
After a screening phase of up to 42 days, eligible subjects will undergo two whole body immuno-PET scans with a non-therapeutic tracer dose (2 mg) of 89Zr-pembrolizumab; one with and one without a preceding "cold" therapeutic dose of pembrolizumab. For the first 3 patients, PET scans will be obtained at 1, 72 and 120 hours post tracer injection to determine the optimal scan time point and to perform biodistribution measurements and dosimetry. All subsequent patients receive only 1 PET scan post-injection (i.e. two PET scans). The optimal time point is expected to be at day 5 post-injection. Pembrolizumab treatment will continue every three weeks until two years of therapy have been administered, disease progression, or unacceptable adverse event(s).
A phase 3 study to demonstrate whether lorlatinib given as monotherapy is superior to crizotinib alone in prolonging the progression-free survival in advanced ALK-positive NSCLC patients who are treatment naïve and to compare lorlatinib to crizotinib with respect to overall survival in the same population
This phase IIa trial studies how well recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein and pembrolizumab work in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to other places in the body or head and neck squamous cell cancer that has come back or spread to other places in the body. Recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Giving recombinant EphB4-HSA fusion protein and pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with non-small cell lung or head and neck squamous cell cancer.
The purpose of this study is to find the benefits of combining nivolumab with metformin in advanced non-small cell lung cancer with and without prior treatment with immunotherapy. We will also be looking at the safety of the combination. Nivolumab is currently approved in certain cancers such as melanoma, lung cancer and kidney cancer. Metformin is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat diabetes. In this study, Metformin is being used to treat cancer. This use is not approved by the FDA; therefore, in this study, it is considered experimental. Experimental means the U.S. FDA has not approved the drug for use in your type of cancer. Nivolumab is an antibody (a human protein that sticks to a part of the tumor and/or immune cells) designed to allow the body's immune system to work against tumor cells. It is believed that metformin has immune modifying properties, meaning it can boost your immune system. As a result, it may help certain cancer treatments, known as immunotherapy, to work better.
This phase I/Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of intrathecal nivolumab, and how well it works in combination with intravenous nivolumab in treating patients with leptomeningeal disease. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.
This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of durvalumab versus platinum-based SoC chemotherapy in the first-line treatment of advanced NSCLC in patients who are epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) wild-type and with PD-L1 high expression (PEARL)
