Filter by:Detect the contents of glucose metabolism molecules in the tumor and adjacent normal samples of about 100 patients with lung adenocarcinoma using mass spectroscopy. Analyze the correlation between the contents and the clinicopathological characteristics and survival.
This is a single arm, open-label, uni-center, phase I-II study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CAR-T/TCR-T cell immunotherapy in treating with different malignancies patients.
The study population has locally advanced or metastatic bronchial or head and neck cancer. This study assesses the value of concomitant chemo/radiotherapy with carboplatin daily during metastatic radiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone. The realization of a systemic treatment during the radiotherapy could make it possible to obtain a benefit on the control of the evolution of the metastases and thus of the pains generated, as well as on the quality of life of the patients. In addition, a benefit in overall survival is possible.
Conduct a prospective study to confirm the value of circulating tumor DNA and its aberrant methylation in longitudinal monitoring of surgical lung cancer patients.
This study will analyze and evaluate the following items: 1. The safety of natural killer(NK) cells for treatment of subjects with solid tumors. Forty patients will be enrolled for each of the five cancers (in total 200 patients will be enrolled). 2. The effectiveness of natural killer(NK)cell therapy alone or with chemotherapy or targeted drugs. Subjects from 18 to 75 years of age who are diagnosed with a solid tumor including pancreatic cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, ovarian cancer and colon cancer, and for whom standard treatments are not effective, may be eligible for this study. Participants undergo the following procedures: Peripheral blood will be collected from a vein of arm. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) will be isolated and purified for NK manufacturing. After 14~21 days cultivation, activated NK will be harvested and formulated for clinical administration. Subjects will receive NK cell treatment by intravenous infusion. The frequency is once every 3 or 4 weeks for the first 3 months. Participants who respond well after 3 months may be eligible to continue NK cell therapy; and those not may receive NK therapy combined with chemotherapy and/or targeted drugs, or chemotherapy/targeted drugs alone. Evaluations during therapy including: 1. Clinical assessment, and history of medications; 2. Blood draws for routine and research tests, including but not limited to: lymphocyte population and circulating tumor cell analysis in peripheral blood; 3. CT scan, bone scan and positron emission tomography(PET )scan, if indicated, for disease evaluation; 4. Pharmacokinetics study after NK infusion. For this test, the number of NK cells in the blood is measured over time at indicated time-points.
The aim of this study is to examine if a shorter palliative radiotherapy fractionation scheme of 20 Gy / 4 F can reduce the early oesophageal toxicity compared to 30 Gy / 10 F in patients with lung cancer in performance status (PS) 0-2. Secondary aims are to examine the effect on lung cancer symptoms, quality of life (QoL) and survival. Furthermore, the investigators aim at standardizing the quality of palliative thoracic radiotherapy in all Danish centres at the highest technical level.
The primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS), secondary end points included duration of locoregional control (LRC), overall survival (OS), quality of life and safety. For metastatic lung cancer, LRC is the local control of metastatic lung tumor here.
The aim of this study is to explore safety and therapeutic efficacy of anlotinib combined with erlotinib/chemotherapy/IBI308 as first-line treatment in advanced NSCLC patients. The primary endpoints of the study are safety and objective response rate (ORR);the secondary endpoints are disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).
To evaluate workflow and outcomes of iVATS and standard VATS for small pulmonary nodules. The outcomes of the patients will be evaluated separately as there will be no direct comparison of the two arms.
In recent years, the development of low-dose pulmonary computed tomography screening has led to the discovery of many small pulmonary nodules in the early stages. Surgical resection is still the main treatment for those suspected malignant lesions. In the face of such small pulmonary nodules, accurate preoperative localization has become the key to successful resection, and the deep-seated nodules are the most challenging parts. Because the deep-seated nodules cannot be localized by surface dye injection, however, it is necessary to place a fiducial marker (such as a microcoil) or contrast medium injection in combination with intraoperative fluoroscopy to ensure adequate resection of the deep-seated nodules. . This study will be carried out at the Hsinchu Branch of National Taiwan University Hospital. It is expected that 60 patients with pulmonary nodules with a depth larger than 2 cm will be randomly assigned into two groups. One group will receive microcoil placement, and the other group will receive contrast medium injection. The primary goal of the study was to compare the localization duration of the two groups of patients, the total dose of radiation exposure during localization and the incidence of location-related complications, and the secondary goals were the results of the surgical procedure, including the surgical duration.
