Filter by:In this clinical trial we will investigate the diagnostic yield of a combination of commercially available imaging and navigation techniques for reaching peripheral lung lesions. The two investigated techniques will herein be the rEBUS imaging modality combined with electromagnetic based navigation. Confirmation of reaching the lung lesion will be by means of CT (fluoroscopic) imaging. Rapid On‐Site Evaluation (ROSE) of cytopathology will be used for obtaining a per‐procedural outcome on tissue biopsy representativeness. All data will be prospectively collected. In case tissue biopsy is found to be malignant or benign, it will be termed representative. In case tissue biopsy is found to be non‐representative (=blood, anatomical lung tissue, unreachable), conventional followup of CT guided TTNA, follow‐up monitoring and/or surgical biopsy will serve as golden standard for obtaining tissue diagnosis. For verification of reaching the target lesion, another study parameter of interest, (cb)CT imaging will be performed for verification that instruments are within the nodule (per‐procedurally available).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of lung cancer specific cytotoxic lymphocytes (LC-CTLs). The secondary objectives are to evaluate the rate of successful LC-CTLs generation in vitro and determine the anti-lung cancer efficacy.
This study will determine the feasibility of the novel thin convex probe endobronchial ultrasound (TCP-EBUS) in human resected lobes. The primary end point is to clarify the feasibility of using the thin convex probe EBUS scope to visualize lung tumors from an intra-bronchial view. The secondary objective is to evaluate the insertion ability, operability, endoscopic image and ultrasound image compared to that of the convex probe EBUS.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the combination of nivolumab plus epacadostat in combination with platinum chemotherapy compared with platinum chemotherapy alone, in participants with treatment-naïve Stage 4 or recurrent non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
The main objective of this study is to evaluate and compare peri-operative outcomes of lobectomy compare with different approaches. The study aims to include patients with stage IA, IB, IIA, IIB and IIIA lung cancer that underwent lobectomy via robotic-assisted, VATS and open approach.
PEARL is a phase III multicentre 2:1 randomised controlled trial, with an incorporated phase II (pilot) component. All patients consented/registered onto the trial will have an autofluorescence bronchoscopy (AFB) to check for the presence of high grade lesions (HGLs) in the lung, as verified by tissue biopsy. Only patients with one or more histologically confirmed lung HGL will be randomised to receive either photodynamic therapy (PDT) treatment with surveillance (=intervention), or surveillance alone (=control). The overall aim of the phase II pilot is to demonstrate a >20% response in the PDT group (at least 3 out of 21 PDT patients), compared to a minimum response of 5%. This will be used as an efficacy signal to determine whether the trial will continue into phase III. Response will be measured by regression of high grade lesions (HGLs) to either low grade lesions (LGLs), or to normal epithelium at 6 months post treatment (blind assessment). The overall aim of the phase III is to show that the time period over which HGLs progress to invasive lung cancer is significantly longer when treated with PDT compared to surveillance alone.
Project HERO is a 12-week study of the efficacy of Body Mind Training (BMT) for reducing fatigue in male cancer survivors. This 3-arm randomized clinical trial will examine inflammatory biology and selected gene-expression pathways that are hypothesized to contribute to the intervention's effect.
This research study is being conducted to assess the safety of PDT in subjects with peripherally located malignant tumors in lung parenchyma prior to surgical resection. It will involve up to 10 sites in USA. Participation will last 4 months.
This is a multi-center, non-randomized, single-arm, prospective trial to evaluate a staged sampling methodology designed to maximize the diagnostic yield of lung biopsy in a single procedure setting.
This study has two main aims. The first one is to examine how to deliver a lung cancer screening service in North Central and North East London and Essex. At the moment, the best way of finding early lung cancer is a special type of x-ray called a low dose Computed Tomography (LDCT) scan. LDCT screening is currently available in the USA to those at higher risk of getting lung cancer. The second aim of this study is to develop a blood test to find lung cancer at an early stage, when it is usually curable. This blood test may also be used to find other types of cancer in the future.
