This study designed to assess the efficacy of osimertinib (80 mg, orally, once daily) to suppress the progression of remaining GGN(s) in other lobes following surgical resection for actionable EGFR mutation-positive stage I lung adenocarcinoma.
More than 30% of patients undergoing thoracic surgical procedures develop persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP), which results in impaired functioning, diminished quality of life, and increased risk of chronic opioid use. The proposed project aims to determine whether a prospective, randomized, controlled study of smartphone-based perioperative cognitive flexibility training will reduce the incidence of PPSP in high-risk individuals undergoing thoracic surgery.
This is a single-arm, single-center, prospective pilot study to perform bronchial artery Tc-99m-MAA infusion to determine the predicted whole lung versus lung tumor dosimetry of a possible intra-arterial radioembolization.
The primary purpose of this research study is to contribute to generalized knowledge on how to increase screening for patients at risk of missing their recommended cancer preventive care by using a newly developed predictive model and analytic tool to improve shared decision-making for these patients. The goal of the clinical trial is to evaluate (prove) the effectiveness of this shared-decision making support tool developed in EPIC on the rate of recommended cancer screening in practice. It contributes to knowledge on what specific methods can increase patient adherence to recommended preventive care and reduce disparities.
This is a two arm, randomized, phase II study of patients with advanced KRAS mutation positive and PD-L1 high NSCLC who have not received therapy for advanced stage disease. Patients will be randomized between Arm A and Arm B treatment. Arm A treatment will consist of durvalumab every 4 weeks for 13 cycles. Arm B treatment will consist of durvalumab with chemotherapy every 3 weeks for 4 cycles followed by durvalumab with pemetrexed every 3 weeks for 13 cycles.
The purpose of this study is to learn about discussion between clinicians and their patients related to lung screening. Survey answers will be collected from both clinicians and their patients.
Patients with medically inoperable and operable secondary soft tissue lesion(s) of the lung will have transbronchial microwave ablation performed using cone beam CT for probe guidance and confirmation.
Fruquintinib administered at 4 mg once daily in cycle 1 and 5 mg once daily in followed cycles (3 weeks on and 1 week off, 4 weeks as 1 cycle) was well tolerated and demonstrated encouraging preliminary clinical antitumor activity in patients with advanced NSCLC in phase II study. This study is aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Fruquintinib in the treatment of high risk patients with advanced NSCLC who is > 75 years, or Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) = 2, or without systemic chemotherapy, or with at least three lines systemic chemotherapies.
Sleep-disordered breathing at night is a common medical problem. It leads to daytime fatigue, impairment in concentration and daily activities, and a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and life-threatening events. A particularly common form is obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), and it is usually treatable with a high rate of patient satisfaction and improved quality of life using a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device. Treatment of this condition improves nighttime low-oxygen levels by ensuring patency of the upper airways. Research shows that in cancer, sleep disordered breathing is frequent. Low oxygen levels overnight may cause tumors to grow: tumors deprived of oxygen grow more blood vessels to try to get more oxygen, and growing more blood vessels makes the tumor grow. This study aims to examine how treating sleep-disordered breathing may lessen blood-flow to lung tumors, and thus serve to ultimately block tumor growth. Participants of this study will undergo sleep study and receive CPAP therapy as a part of routine care.
