Filter by:Tumor vaccines may make the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. This research study is evaluating a new type of tumor vaccine termed as "Neoantigen Tumor Vaccine". The purpose of this phase I/II trial study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of neoantigentumor vaccine in post radical operation patients with stage IIIA lung cancer.
Phase II, single-arm study to assess the safety and efficacy of osimertinib (80 mg, orally, once daily) as first-line therapy in patients with EGFR mutation-positive, locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have not previously treated with an epidermal growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitor agent.
To observe the effect of compliance guided an optimal Positive End-Expiratory Pressure（PEEP）on arterial oxygenation and intrapulmonary shunt during one-lung ventilation(OLV)，and discuss the lung protective effect of optimal PEEP during one-lung ventilation.
The investigators conduct the real world study to explore the efficacy and safety of Albumin-binding taxol in lung cancer .
The purpose of this study is to compare Electromagnetic navigation guided with CT-guided transthoracic needle aspiration (TTNA) in the diagnosis of pulmonary peripheral nodule. Primary endpoints：Diagnostic rate Secondary endpoints：operating time、adverse events Study design: Multicenter、randomized、open lebel
The present study is to evaluate the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in predicting fluid responsiveness in patients undergoing one-lung ventilation.
Comparing pre-operative transbronchial localization under augmented fluoroscopy and intra-operative transbronchial localization using electromagnetic navigation bronchoscopy system for small lung nodules.
The primary objective of the trial is to test the new radio tracer 18F-ASIS for PET imaging of tissue factor (TF) expression. The tracer has the potential of identifying tumors with high levels of TF expression, which is expected to correlate with tumor aggression and prognosis. Furthermore, the tracer can potentially be used as companion imaging diagnostic agent for identifying patients eligible for TF directed therapies. This is a first-in-man study to test the radio tracer in cancer patients. Safety, biodistribution and dosimetry will be evaluated by repeated PET imaging (1 hour, 2 hours and 4 hours post-injection).
Progastrin is a pro-hormone that, in physiological conditions, is maturated in gastrin in G cells of the stomach. The role of the gastrin is to stimulate the secretion of gastric acids during digestion. It is also important for the regulation of cell growth of the gastric mucosal. In a healthy person, progastrin is not detectable in the peripheral blood. However, progastrin is abnormally released in the blood of patients with different cancers (colorectal, gastric, ovarian, breast, cervix uterus, melanoma…) The gene GAST coding for progastrin is a direct target gene of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway. The activation of this oncogenic pathway is an early event in cancer development. Chronic activation of the WNT/ß-catenin oncogenic pathway occurs in almost all human solid tumors and is a central mechanism in cancer biology that induces cellular proliferation, blocking of differentiation leading to primary tumor growth and metastasis formation. Progastrin measured in the peripheral blood of patients on treatments, could be a new powerful marker for diagnosis and prognosis at different stages.
The objective of this project is to compare the effect of two widely implemented cancer diets, differing drastically in macronutrient content, on biomarkers of inflammation, compared to a control diet. Diet A will be a low-carbohydrate, high-fat ketogenic-type diet with an emphasis on whole foods. By limiting carbohydrate, the diet will have an extremely low glycemic load, thereby minimizing diurnal glucose and insulin excursions. Diet B will be a low-fat, high-carbohydrate whole foods plant-based diet. It will include only fiber-rich, low-glycemic index sources of carbohydrates and largely eliminate animal protein, which will minimize rapid spikes in blood glucose and insulin and the production of IGF-1. This diet is also hypothesized to improve glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, which should further help minimize diurnal glycemic and insulinemic excursions. Both diets will be compared to a control diet based on the 2015 USDA Dietary Guidelines for Americans (Diet C) in patients suffering from advanced lung cancer as they are completing medical therapy. The overarching hypothesis motivating this work is that a nutrient dense diet that minimizes known factors involved in tumor growth and progression may improve the effectiveness of therapy. Our specific hypothesis is that participants following either of the experimental diets, A or B, will experience a reduction in biomarkers of insulin resistance and chronic inflammation, both of which are known risk factors for progression in lung cancer, and a greater median time to progression compared to those on the control diet (Diet C).
