Filter by:This study aims to collect real world outcomes of Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) for lung cancer (lobectomy, wedge resection) using ECHELON FLEX™ Powered ENDOPATH® Staplers 45 mm and/or 60 mm (study devices).
This study using pembrolizumab (MK-3475) will be done in 5 parts. In Part A, successive participant cohorts with advanced solid tumors will receive pembrolizumab to assess the safety and tolerability of monotherapy. In Parts B, C, and D, participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) will receive pembrolizumab in combination with either cisplatin/pemetrexed or carboplatin/pemetrexed (Part B); with either carboplatin/paclitaxel or carboplatin/nab-paclitaxel (Part C); or with ipilimumab (Part D) by non-random assignment to assess the safety and tolerability of the combination therapy. In Part E, participants with untreated Extensive-disease (ED) Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC) will receive pembrolizumab in combination with either cisplatin/etoposide, carboplatin/etoposide, or cisplatin/etoposide with prophylactic use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (lasting G-CSF [pegfilgrastim]) by non-random assignment to assess the safety and tolerability of the combination therapy.
This clinical trial studies nanoscale artificial nose (NA-NOSE) in monitoring response and detecting recurrence after surgery or radiation therapy in patients with stage I or stage II non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Using the NA-NOSE breath test may be an effective way to monitor response and detect recurrence of NSCLC after surgery or radiation therapy.
This phase I trial studies the side effects and best dose of quinacrine dihydrochloride when given together with erlotinib hydrochloride and to see how well it works in treating patients with stage IIIB-IV non-small cell lung cancer. Erlotinib hydrochloride may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as quinacrine dihydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving erlotinib hydrochloride together with quinacrine dihydrochloride may kill more tumor cells
This study aims to investigate the expression of Melanoma-associated antigen 3 (MAGE-A3), Melanoma-associated antigen C2 (MAGE-C2), New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 1 (NY-ESO-1), L antigen family member 1 (LAGE-1), Wilms' tumor gene (WT1) and PRAME (PReferentially expressed Antigen of MElanoma) tumor antigens in a large number of pathologically proven stage I, II and III NSCLC samples of Asiatic patients.
The main objective of this study is to determine recommended phase II dose and safety of tetrathiomolybdate (TM) in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed in chemo-naive metastatic or recurrent non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.
Empyema following pneumonectomy for Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) is a known problem that occurs in about 2% of pneumonectomy patients.
This study is for patients having a course of chest radiotherapy treatment after receiving chemotherapy for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. Patients with non-small cell lung cancer have a risk of the tumour in the lung recurring or progressing after treatment. In this study, we will investigate: - whether giving a more targeted and individualised type of chest irradiation or radiotherapy to the lung tumour (known as Isotoxic IMRT), is practical and whether it causes side effects which can be tolerated - whether this new method of delivering the radiotherapy can reduce the risk of the tumour in the lung recurring or progressing - whether survival can be improved by using this new radiotherapy method The dose of chest irradiation will be calculated specifically to suit patient's body shape, the position of the lung cancer, and how close healthy tissues are to the tumour. Radiotherapy will be delivered twice a day over a maximum period of 4.5 weeks. The duration of treatment will vary individually according to the delivered dose to the tumour area.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chidamide combined with paclitaxel and carboplatin in patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer.
Optimal management of patients with advanced NSCLC and with PS 2 remains controversial and underrepresented in clinical trials, typically accounting for 5 to 10% of enrolled patients. Patient PS 2 proportion in population-based studies is considerably higher than that included in clinical trials. Management of patients with PS of 2 in clinical practice is empirical and inconsistent. Patients have median overall survival of 3 to 5 months in randomized trials, and treatment options include best supportive care, single-agent and combination chemotherapy. Retrospective studies have suggested that patients PS 2 may benefit from first-line chemotherapy in terms of symptom improvement and overall survival. In many of these studies, single-agent chemotherapy was compared with best supportive care alone. Data on the role of cisplatin-based combinations for patients with PS 2 is more scant, with one study questioning its benefit, and another interrupting accrual because of undue toxicity. With regards to carboplatin, the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB) study 9730 compared paclitaxel plus carboplatin versus paclitaxel alone in a subgroup of 107 patients with PS 2; the median overall survival was significantly longer in group treated with combination chemotherapy (4.7 versus 2.4 months). Combination chemotherapy with carboplatin and paclitaxel also produced a statistically significantly higher incidence of severe hematological and non-hematological toxicities. On the basis of aforementioned results, a recent European panel stated that carboplatin-based or low-dose cisplatin-based doublets might represent alternative options to single-agent chemoterapy in patients PS 2. Outside clinical trials, single-agent chemotherapy with a 3rd generation agent remains valid option for patients PS2. Results demonstrate that pemetrexed is an agent with established single-agent activity in NSCLC, and suggest it is a potential candidate for combinations with platinum and other agents currently utilized for patients with advanced NSCLC. Favorable toxicity profile of pemetrexed suggests that this agent is an ideal candidate for single agent testing and in combination among patients with PS 2. Substantial doubt remains in the comparative benefit from monotherapy versus combination. Starting dose and schedule of pemetrexed were set for this study based on its current labeling in the 2nd line treatment of metastatic NSCLC and 1st line treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma.
