Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether continuing erlotinib beyond disease progression in combination with chemotherapy is beneficial for NSCLC patients who have EGFR mutant disease or who have responded to EGFR TKI.
Malignant pleural or pericardial effusion is common in lung cancer, and intrapleural drugs injection is important in the treatment. Non- cytotoxic drugs include those with a sclerosing effect that produces pleurodesis, which is easy to cause severe chest pain despite of no influence on the following chemotherapy. Tumor angiogenesis is important in producing MPE. Bevacizumab has been administrated locally in treating optic nerve sickness successfully by anti-VEGF mechanism. So we hypothesize that intrapleural bevacizumab is also effective in treating MPE.
Dual-energy CT (DECT) provides information on the blood volume in tumors and lymph nodes. As tumors respond to treatment, preliminary data suggests that the blood volumes changes as well. Investigators are therefore using DECT to test whether it can be used on radiation treatment to rapidly assess response to treatment.
This observational study will investigate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and symptom control of GIOTRIF (Afatinib) in daily routine first-line therapy in patients with locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC harboring EGFR-mutations. Eligible NSCLC patients, for whom the treating physician has decided to initiate treatment with GIOTRIF in first line according to the local label, will be followed up for approximately 24 months.
This is a single arm, open label, Phase II study in KRAS-positive and KRAS-negative patients with stage IV (including pleural effusion) non squamous NSCLC who have failed two lines of anti-cancer therapy. A maximum of 60 evaluable patients with NSCLC will receive antroquinonol, of which 30 patients will be KRAS-positive and 30 patients KRAS-negative. An evaluable patient will have received at least one dose of antroquinonol and have a valid baseline tumor assessment. Enrollment will continue until the target number of evaluable patients has been enrolled.
The core hypothesis to be tested is that the use of consolidative SBRT followed by maintenance chemotherapy in patients with less than or equal to 6 metastatic sites (primary + 5) will improve progression free survival (PFS) compared to maintenance chemotherapy alone.
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of afatinib in patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harboring Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutation(s) and have never been treated with an EGFR-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (TKI)
Erlotinib, an anti-cancer agent targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), is an active treatment of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Effect of treatment is primary seen in patients harboring a mutation in the EGFR. However, 10-15% of patients does not harbor a mutation but respond as well. Identifying these patients is a problem and methods are lacking. Studies have shown that an early 18F FDG-PET might can predict response and outcome in these patients, but further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
This is a post-marketing, observational, non-interventional, multi-central study of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), with data collected prospectively from medical records at inclusion. The primary objective is to obtain the epidemiologic data of anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-positive in unselected Chinese patients with NSCLC.
The purpose of this study is to show that Nivolumab will improve progression free survival in subjects with strongly Stage IV or Recurrent PD-L1+ non-small cell lung cancer when compared to chemotherapy
